Vela is a reverb plugin based on a new reverb technology that is designed for versatility, capable of creating everything from ultra-realistic spaces to expansive soundscapes. The plugin features a fully customizable early reflection system combined with a node-based late reflection engine. This is intended to give users control over aspects like density, decay, and damping filter characteristics over time, aiming for a smooth reverb tail.

Vela can emulate the sounds of well-regarded classic and modern hardware reverbs, such as algorithms from Lexicon, Bricasti, and TC Electronic, without relying on captured impulse responses. The engine allows users to take these emulations as a starting point and modify them further.

Features

  • Customizable Early Reflection System: Allows for detailed shaping of the initial sound reflections.
  • Node-Based Late Reflection Engine: Provides fine-tuning of density, decay, and damping filter over time for smooth tails.
  • Complete Density Control: Utilizes a network of delays with a node-based graph editor to shape the density of the space, ranging from sparse initial delays to dense, smooth tails. It can also create unusual effects with varying delay tap configurations.
  • Node-Based Decay System: Features a node-based graph for editing decay shapes, enabling the creation of short decays, gates, non-linear tail shapes, and effects like reverse reverbs or pulsing sawtooth tails.
  • Pre and Post EQ Sections: Each EQ has four nodes with various filter shapes (Low Shelf, Bell, Low-Cut, High-Cut, High Shelf), and adjustable slopes for the Low and High Cuts.
  • Node-Based Decay Filter: Offers independent Low Pass and High Pass filter envelopes to fine-tune the damping of the decay over time.
  • Ducking System: Helps the reverb interact with the incoming signal for clearer vocals.
  • De-essing System: Reduces sibilance before it hits the reverb for smoother tails.
  • Diffusion Network: Smooths out discrete taps from low-density late sections or early reflection taps, and adds stereo space. Independent controls for early and late diffusion networks are available.
  • Modulation Parameters: Provides control over the number of modulation channels, speed, and amount.
  • 160+ Presets: Includes presets that emulate classic reverbs, with decay times marked for easy sorting.
