Supermassive, hands down one of the best free plugins out there, has received an update to V2 and now boasts two new and unique modes to further extend this amazing plugin.
What Is Supermassive?
Supermassive is a delay plug-in, which can create everything from conventional delays, choruses and flangers through to shimmering reverbs and swirling clouds of feedback unlike any you’ve heard before. Particularly as Valhalla are one of the few plug-in companies who make delay plugins in which you can change the delay control freely without any zipper noise. It creates sounds which span the space between delays and reverbs.
Supermassive uses a variety of feedback delay networks, where each delay in the structure can be up to 2 seconds long. Combine these long delays with the unique WARP control, and the results range from echoes that slowly fade in, to cascading harmonic echoes, to lush reverbs, onwards to reverbs that decay way over the course of minutes.
Features:
Tempo synced delays, up to 2 seconds
Multiphase delay modulation
DENSITY control, that allows you to dial in pointillistic echoes, lush reverbs, echo clusters, and all sorts of sounds in between.
Twelve unique delay/reverb MODES, named after celestial objects, including two new additions:
Gemini: Fast attack, shorter decay, high echo density.
Hydra: Fast-ish attack, shorter decay, low to high echo density (depending on the DENSITY control setting)
Centaurus: Medium attack, longer decay, medium to high echo density (depending on the DENSITY control setting)
Sagittarius: Slow attack, longer decay, high echo density
Great Annihilator: Medium attack, very long decay, medium to high echo density (depending on the DENSITY control setting)
Andromeda: Slowest attack, very long decay, very high echo density
Lyra: Fast attack, shorter decay, low echo density
Capricorn: Fast attack, shorter decay, medium echo density
Cassiopea: A reverb/echo algorithm which has a fast attack and initially sparse echo density that can build up into massively dense and long reverbs.
Orion: The much bigger version of Cassiopeia. Low echo density that can build to enormous reverbs, fast attack, strange resonances and repeating patterns.
Aquarius (New in 2.0.0): a dedicated EchoVerb algorithm, with a strong audible echo/delay that can morph into a lush reverb with higher DENSITY settings
Pisces (New in 2.0.0): the bigger sibling of Aquarius. EchoVerb, with even denser and lusher reverbs on tap than Aquarius.
