About
The RO-140 was faithfully modelled after its legendary hardware counterparts, while still remaining a Black Rooster Audio original plug-in at its core. Its plate simulation approach allows users to authentically capture an analogue unit's sound and feel as closely as possible while still including some unexpected twists - just as you'd expect from any kick-ass Black Rooster Audio plug-in.
Achieving the perfect amount and type of reverb for your tracks can make - or break - your mix. Producers now have the ability to mimic any space in their mixes by using this effect, tricking the ear and simulating everything from grandiose width to cosy intimacy. Today's music production uses reverb processors extensively and with ease, but it hasn't always been this way.
Engineers have experimented with foil and metal plates to reproduce costly reverb rooms since the 50s, and while the result sounded good, this technique proved to be time-consuming, expensive and unpredictable. Nevertheless, plate reverberation was extensively used across many 50s and 60s hit songs.
Features
- Inspired by the Classics
- This plug-in was inspired by the EMT 140 and other classic plate reverbs, giving you the best out of each classic piece of hardware in one small yet powerful package.
- 6 Physically Accurate Plate Materials
- The RO-140 includes six physically modelled plate materials - gold, silver, steel, aluminum, bronze and titanium - each of which has an adjustable size through its dynamic plate size controller, allowing for maximum customizability.
- Classic Damper Control
- Get complete control over the reverb decay time with the physically modelled version of a classic damper control, and choose between 10 damper positions by clicking the + and - buttons.
- Classic Pre-delay Control
- The classic pre-delay control determines the amount of delay between the dry and wet signals. It was purposefully placed after the plate reverb emulation to enable users to modulate the reverb tail with the DAW automation.
- Adjustable Gain-Staging at the In- And Ouput Stage
- This gives you the ability to control the pre-processing input gain level, as well as the post-processing output gain level.
- SSE2 Optimized Code
- DSP operations are pipelined using the SSE2 instruction set. This ensures a high-performance operation despite its very complex computations.
- Zero Latency
- The RO-140 is a zero-latency reverberation plug-in that does not require sample delay compensation, making it ideal for real-time monitoring or live environments.
- Highdpi/Retina Support
- The user interfaces support high pixel density on both Windows and Mac OS systems, giving you the most enjoyable user experience on high DPI displays. Please refer to your DAW manual to learn whether it is HighDPI compatible if you're working on Windows.
