A New Era of Reverb
Temperance Lite represents the next step for reverb technology, offering a new approach to shape ambiance. It responds to the language of music, encouraging you to explore reverb in a new way. Unlike a traditional algorithmic or convolution reverb, Temperance Lite lets you control reverb resonances using the familiar 12-note chromatic scale. This allows you to choose which notes bloom or wither within your chosen space, creating musical ambiances that were previously unattainable
Modal Reverb Technology
Imagine a room filled with thousands of tuning forks, each tuned to a different frequency. What if you could control the loudness and decay of each one?
Temperance models reverberant spaces as thousands of independent resonances (modes), all adjustable in real time. While convolution reverbs capture a space in a single snapshot, Temperance builds it piece by piece, letting you shape how each mode decays or resonates.
Features
World-Class Spaces: Bright Room, Large Studio, Synthetic Space
Radial Note Selection Buttons let you choose which notes to emphasize or de-emphasize
15 Factory Presets including 5 Tutorial presets to get you going
NoteScape Visualizer displays the emphasized and de-emphasized notes sustaining and decaying, visually mapping the musicality of the reverb
Mix, Decay, Pre-delay and Size controls function as expected for intuitive workflow
Low latency suitable for tracking and real-time performance (<1 ms)
Range Sliders isolate specific frequency bands for precise control
Reference Frequency Controls for adjusting tempered notes to your music
The Temper Knob
The heart of Temperance is its signature Temper knob. At noon, Temperance Lite functions like a traditional reverb. Turn it clockwise to adjust the degree to which selected notes ring out with your music. Turn it counterclockwise to de-emphasize the selected notes.
The Science of Modal Reverb
Each mode is represented by an independent resonator with four adjustable parameters: frequency, decay time, amplitude, and phase.
When thousands of these resonators work together, they create highly detailed reverberant spaces with unparalleled control and flexibility. By selecting and adjusting modes based on their musicality, Temperance Lite can achieve sounds previously not possible with other reverbs.
