The "Cloud of Sound"
Within the Sinevibes Albedo Granular Reverb, a real-time circular recording buffer offers complex potentials for the effective use of an unusual and experimental reverb. Transcending the abilities of traditional space simulating reverb units, The Sinevibes Albedo Granular Cloud Reverb offers a vast variety of effects: pitch shifts, reversed delays, chorus atmospheres and dissonance that are all bolstered by a stereo link function. You decide whether your grains add a subtle sparkle to your sounds, or if they achieve a rich and continuous "Cloud of Sound".
Take control of your cloud
With up to 64 grains to manipulate and rearrange, the granular playback engine of the Albedo Granular Cloud Reverb is capable of creating elaborate musical textures. The dual envelope generators per grain allow for the continuous adjustment of playback speed; allowing for live audio manipulation evocative of a tape machine or turntable. You control the number, size, speed, direction and variable tuning of the grains, or opt-in to randomise both the position and size of the grains to produce a truly unpredictable sense of space. The Sinevibes Albedo's granular playback engine provides further potential for complexity with the inclusion of a sine-wave LFO for synchronous grain speed and size modulation. Standard Rate and Depth parameters allow you control over exactly how subtle or deeply grain speed and size are affected.
Additionally, the Sinevibes Albedo features an optional multi-mode state-variable filter, so you are given the comprehensive ability to control and sculpt the Albedo "Cloud of Sound" to your specifications.
Take direct control of your sound with Sinevibes Albedo's freeze function. You are given the ability to play the cloud indefinitely, and layer other sounds over the top of your "Cloud of Sound" in real-time to produce robust, energetic live performance or automation recording to layer melodies and leads over rich reverb tones and fill your stereo field.
A simple but smart user interface
Presented within a sleek and intuitive graphic interface, The Albedo Granular Reverb is easy on the eyes and simple to navigate. Colour-coded graphic elements, consistent name, mapping, value, and unit implementation for all parameters, built-in preset management functions and support for window size scaling up to 200 ensure that you can discover all of the capabilities of this sophisticated reverb unit.
