Update 12/12: We've uploaded a new version (rev 8131) with display of base note (main resonance frequency) and switch for Notch/Bandpass for center of filter morph. Screenshots and more will follow in coming days.

-------------

This is Twangström, a flexible spring-reverb box-of-tricks. If you're familiar with Bazille you might already have come across its built-in spring unit. We took that one, and modelled two more reverb tanks, paired it with drive section, filter stage, envelope, and mod matrix.

In Twangström, tanks are based on 'physical modelling'. As opposed to plug-ins using impulse responses (IRs) of actual devices but being limited in expression and manipulation, our approach mimics the actual physics of mechanical reverberation. Thus we're not reproducing sonic results, we're actually simulating their origin. And it's all controllable in realtime, on a per-sample-basis. Which boils down to quite some power at your fingertips.

Features at a glance:
  • 3 different reverberation tanks, inspired by the most used ones built in the guitar & instrument amps that made rock 'n roll
  • a tasty drive & tone stage for heating-up and colouring the sound
  • a multi-mode filter, with variable type blend, stereo offset, and pre- or post-tank routing option
  • an four-flavours envelope stage that can pick up the signal from either input, output or external sidechain
  • LFO module
  • modulation matrix, for the fun part
  • and most important: shakeable springs

Yey! :hyper:

You changed the look of all the knobs. They look more hmm...masculine. :hihi:

Wow sqigls posted first response in this thread 2 minutes after the first post - he's been waiting to pounce. Desperado :lol:

Oh this is so much fun! Combined with Bitwig's modulators and being able to automate the spring twanging.

First half hour in Bitwig without any issues, now let the hardcore betaring commence.

(betaring... is that a word? Actually, I don't care - I have twanging to do)

Im patiently waiting till some **** will make a thread "Twangatrom vs any other random reverb"

Wow, played half an hour with it and it sounds awesome! Will definitely buy it.

There is just one thing I don't get in the plug-in. What are the differences between the different envelope modes (EF/AR/AD/CYC) ?

Beautiful GUI, interesting and well made product

However after playing with it I cant find any real use for it in my projects.

Maybe I'am not hipster enough for spring reverbs so no buying this time.

EF -> Envelope Follower (aka slew limiter), following Source

AR -> Rises to full value at rate A while Source is above Threshold, then stays there. Otherwise falls back to 0 with rate R

AD -> Once Source surpasses Threshold, it rises to full value at rate R, then falls back to 0 at rate D. Source surpassing Threshold level is a trigger here

CYC -> Does the LFO thing while input is above threshold level
