Sinevibes has announced the release of updates to two of its reverb effects for KORG’s second-generation plugin-capable devices (NTS-1 mkII synthesizer and NTS-3 kaoss pad).
The algorithms of version 2 of Hollow and Luminance have been developed pretty much from scratch, and they include Sinevibes’ very latest know-how in developing smooth, lush and musical-sounding virtual spaces.
Hollow is a vast space reverb. At its core is a feedback delay network – with as many as 64 connections – that produces a truly lush, almost three-dimensional reverb sound. With all settings maxed out, this engine is capable of tail times that exceed several minutes, while still having a smooth and naturally decay. The algorithm also features our trademark unison-style modulation via three phase-shifted sine oscillators, adding highly melodic depth and richness.
Luminance is a shimmer reverb. It’s a novel take on this highly coveted effect: an ethereal reverb whose tail gradually pitch-shifts itself upwards or downwards. The plugin is based on a feedback delay network with a built-in a granular pitch shifter and chorus-style modulation. Thanks to the very unique and meticulously executed tuning of its individual components, Luminance gently follows the original musical content and creates a rich background sound layer – reminiscent of a gorgeous, dreamy symphony of strings or pipe organs.
Hollow v2 and Luminance v2 are immediately available to purchase at $19 USD each. Each purchase comes with two plugin versions for first- and second-generation KORG devices. These new plugins are also free upgrades for all customers who bought the first-generation versions.
