Heavyocity VAST - Impulse Engine

[collider]

Introducing VAST, an all-new creative convolution reverb plugin. This expressive designer tool redefines audio manipulation, allowing you to transport your sound to completely new and impossible spaces. With a wide selection of intuitive controls, this diverse palette of innovative reverbs, unique rhythmic echoes, and unconventional effects, VAST is a true playground for creative experimentation.

At the heart of VAST is a flexible Impulse Engine chock full of creative controls and unexpected effects. Dive into a diverse array of banks featuring over 200 impulse responses, or personalize your experience by importing your own audio files as IRs. Reconstruct your sound with limitless artistic expression by intuitively combining an array of modules (convolution, gate, compression, EQ, delay, and dry/wet) to transport your source to entirely new sonic realms. To streamline your creative process, VAST also includes over 200 meticulously crafted presets, providing a quick start to your sonic exploration.

If someone got a Punish Lite license for me, I would happily use it for crossgrading Thank you!

Cool implementation of convolution, tempo syncing rhythmic files is very creative, much more than a reverb. Worth a demo

Seems really interesting.
The cross grade price is really tempting me.

Picked this up this morning, enjoying the IR and sync options. Have to say I'm not as enamoured with the Heavyocity Portal launcher, which has already forgotten my details twice and doesn't let me use my custom VST folders (grr), but the product itself is good so far!

Does this actually do a tempo sync warp edit to the actual IR wav file pre-convolution or is it just using IRs shot with a specific tempo and named as such in the filename/preset so you set your DAW to match the IR’s bpm? If it’s the latter, then it’s nothing new to using IR’s that were shot or convolved with a preset bpm and listed in the file name for use in setting your DAW’s tempo to match the IR.

I have always been wondering if someone would develop a creative reverb/delay IR plugin that has builtin IR wav editor/manipulating, similar to what you can do with a full on sampler vsti, pre convolution, so you could add effects to the raw IR file and then throw it through the processed convolution signal.

The "Rhythmic" IR files do have a BPM listed in their name, however, there is a tempo sync button that can be toggled to where the IR is played at the tempo of my host. Furthermore, the "Size" percentage knob can further tweak how "fast" the IR is played to fine-tune the response. I hope this answers your question.

Not a huge buzz on this it seems, I was going to try the demo but a 15 minute demo seemed a bit limited so I'll pas for now unless user feedback or a no-brainer sale temps me back in!
