| Author: | ProducerStack |
| Device Type: | Audio Effect |
| Description: | Creating evolving ambient textures and ethereal pad layers shouldn't mean bouncing between multiple plugins whilst losing your creative momentum. Shimmer Reverb brings algorithmic pitch-shifted reverberation directly into Ableton's interface, keeping you focused on sound design rather than wrestling with routing matrices. The result is immediate access to crystalline reverb tails, frozen ambient swells and otherworldly soundscapes without ever leaving your creative flow. Both editions are built around Max 9's high quality shimmer algorithm, delivering studio grade reverb processing with full control over decay characteristics, diffusion density and pitch manipulation. The core engine provides precise damping for frequency shaping, modulation control for movement and chorusing effects, plus the essential freeze function that sustains reverberation infinitely for ambient production and experimental sound design. Whether you're crafting subtle space or dramatic atmospherics, both Standard and Pro editions give you complete control over every aspect of the shimmer effect. Pro edition builds on this foundation with real-time visual feedback that reveals exactly what's happening to your audio. The interactive frequency display shows your EQ curve with draggable control points, whilst the integrated spectrum analyser displays both wet and dry signals simultaneously. Combined with stereo width control and a complete post-reverb processing chain, Pro delivers surgical precision for professional mixing contexts. Whether you choose Standard or Pro, you're getting authentic Max powered shimmer processing that integrates seamlessly with Ableton's native workflow. This device is built around Max 9's [abl.dsp.Shimmer~] object, providing a high-quality algorithmic reverb with an enhanced control surface and integrated signal processing chain. Architecture: Core reverb engine: abl.dsp.shimmer~ with full parameter exposure Post-reverb signal path: 3-band EQ → Stereo Width → Dry/Wet Crossfade Custom JSUI provides real-time visual feedback for both EQ curve and damping response Modular design with reusable abstractions for crossfading and EQ control Interface Features: Interactive frequency display shows your EQ settings with draggable control points Double-click handles to reset; Cmd/Ctrl+double-click for default positions Alt/Opt drag handles for Q/Slope control Filter toggles (High Pass, Peak/Notch, Low Pass) show/hide respective controls Real-time spectrum analysis displays both wet and dry signals Key Parameters: Pitch Shifting and Shimmer controls for long complex reverberations The integrated EQ and width controls allow precise post-processing without external plugins.
