Revolv
Revolv is a unique reverb plugin like no other, emerging directly from our cultural and sonic heritage. Whether you place your mix in a peaceful forest, an ancient ruin, or a sweaty sauna, Revolv’s impulse responses capture the unique ambiance of each location. Explore historically and acoustically unique spaces like the medieval Gotland ruins or Uppsala Cathedral, meticulously recorded to give your audio a sense of depth and authenticity that sets it apart.
At the heart of Revolv is the dedication of our close friend and sound designer Oscar Björk, who embarked on an epic journey across Sweden in a project called “Echoes of Our Time”, capturing the unique acoustic fingerprints of a diverse selection of handpicked locations. His passion for preserving the soul and sound of these locations has resulted in an extraordinary collection of impulse responses, each a testament to his painstaking efforts and deep appreciation for Sweden’s acoustic heritage.
Revolv features an innovative design, revolving around “location wheels” and a loupe selector. Simply move the selector around the wheels to change location and sound. Each location also offers a detailed view where you can learn more about the site and customize the decay, predelay, and width, as well as adjust your microphone preference and recording distance. Six wheels are available, each representing a group of locations, ranging from rare and quirky to epic halls.
A convolution reverb blends your audio with an impulse response (IR) from a real acoustic space. Revolv simplifies this complex process, offering a user-friendly interface and an extensive variety of authentic environments.
Revolv’s impulse responses are hand-recorded and processed (no AI involved). Each IR is a genuine audio snapshot of a space’s natural acoustics, ensuring that the reverb you add to your recordings is as real and rich as the location itself. This authenticity makes Revolv an invaluable tool for musicians, sound designers, and audio engineers, particularly in fields like film and video game sound design where convincing space replication is key. Each location has a unique acoustic character, and the diversity caters for many different creative ideas.
Despite convolution reverbs being resource-heavy, Revolv is designed for efficient performance without sacrificing quality.
Richter
Richter is the culmination of years of experimentation, resulting in a compressor that empowers you to squeeze every bit of sonic perfection out of your tracks like never before. From mixes to vocals, punchy drums to smooth, transparent vocal tracks, Richter delivers great results across multiple genres.
Richter has been designed to achieve heavy compression with a minimal amount of artifacts. It is the result of many years of experimenting in the Klevgrand labs. Normally a heavily compressed audio signal gets distorted, often with a nasty “zipper noise” artifact because of how the internal envelope followers are engineered. The experiments led to a brand new approach resulting in a compressor that empowers you to squeeze every bit of sonic perfection out of your tracks. Use it for meaty mixes, punchy drums or smooth, transparent vocal tracks.
Due to how the algorithm is designed, there are a few unconventional controls to tame Richter. First of all: one single parameter controls how much compression will get applied. The other (important) parameter controls how the internal envelope follower will react to transients vs continuous/lasting sounds. These two parameters make Richter a highly intuitive compressor where the user quickly will be able to dial in the wanted sound. On top of that there’s a boost switch that literally makes the amount span go to eleven. And, as the name suggests, earthquake levels are possible.
LUXE
LUXE is an effect plugin that compresses and saturates an audio signal in a quite subtle but musical way. It is very useful for making a track “fit in the mix”, and can be used with very good results on a drum bus, a vocal track, or anything in between.
LUXE is very easy to use – simply choose between the LUXE or FINESSE algorithms, and set the desired processing level. Don’t be fooled by the modest control possibilities – under the hood is a very sophisticated set of parameters that will treat your incoming audio with great care, musicality, and warmth.
The slider sets the amount of the effect. Under the hood, this parameter controls a set of internal (non-visible) parameters which makes LUXE an easy tool to use for quick results. The OUT knob sets the output volume and ranges from silence to +6 dB.
The alternate FINESSE algorithm offers a slightly different frequency response, and also adds some edge to the internal saturation module.
- Good mood / God mode – Choose between the LUXE or FINESSE algorithm. Both are very nice.
- Watch it squeeze – Indicator that shows the amount of LUXE treatment that is given to your audio signal.
- More or less – How much goodness do you need?
- Tune in, trim out – Output level. Not Input level. Not Putin level.
