Nuspace Audio Riviera

Riviera is a hybrid algorithmic-convolution reverb plugin for modeling specular acoustic reflections in N-dimensional orthotopes. e.g. string, plate, room, tesseract, and up (vooms or volume+room for short). Normally, direct computation in these spaces is expensive but some clever maths (see tutorial) reduced the asymptotic costs to the point of practical use (e.g. a Reverb plugin). Parameterizing these spaces and then combining them with some fast time-varying frequency decay resulted in some interesting sounding impulse responses (IRs).

Features: 

• Low-latency, low CPU usage convolution
• Multi-threading support for computing IRs in the background
• Fine-grain controls for parameterizing each voom’s number of dimensions, size, offset from sound-source origin, and material reflection dB loss.
• Time manipulation controls for delay, stretch, and linearity (RT60 ranges from 1 – 20 seconds!)
• Fast frequency-dependent time-decay functions
• Pan / stereo / mix (wet/dry) controls
• Graphical user interface for displaying IR and spectrogram
