The shimmer reverb
that costs nothing
MoonVerb 2 is here: a new 16-line true-stereo engine, five shimmer intervals, AIR, freeze, ducking, swell and tempo-synced pre-delay. Still free, for any track.
Five intervals. And AIR.
Choose where the tail climbs: an octave up, a fifth, an octave and a fifth, two octaves, or an octave down. Switching glides the pitch in 50 ms, with no jump. Then turn up AIR: it sets how far the shimmer can bloom, from clean to enormous. On its last notch a long reverb sustains itself and keeps going, and a soft saturation keeps the runaway musical.
- Shimmer amount from a whisper to a full choir
- The AIR halo warms up on screen and turns red past 60 %

One button captures the tail and keeps it. A single chord becomes an infinite drone; a vocal take becomes a frozen pad you can play under the next section. Shimmer and modulation step aside while it holds, so the frozen sound stays steady, and the moon on the MoonScope screen reacts.
- Freeze is automatable, so it can breathe with the arrangement
- Its state now comes back exactly when you reopen a session
Shape the room, not just the tail
SIZE stretches the space from half to double without changing the reverb time; the change glides over 300 ms, so the tail bends while the room grows. EARLY adds twelve reflections per side, 4 to 75 ms after the pre-delay, and they follow SIZE. BASS sets how long the lows ring, from ×0.25 to ×4 against 1 kHz.
- Low cut 20 Hz – 2 kHz and high cut 1 – 20 kHz, 12 dB/octave, on the reverb only
- Damping for the highs, width for the stereo image
A reverb that makes room
DUCK pulls the reverb down under what you play, by up to 24 dB, and brings it back in about 0.3 s when you stop, while the tail keeps building behind. SWELL fades the reverb in after each new note, for pads that bloom instead of splash.
- Pre-delay synced to your DAW, from 1/64 to 1/4 with triplets and dotted notes, up to 1 s; or free, from 0 to 500 ms
- Modulation rate and depth keep the tail moving
Sixteen lines, true stereo
A feedback delay network with sixteen delay lines in true stereo, Hadamard mixing and nested allpass diffusion, modulated by wandering LFOs. Reverb time runs from about 0.8 s to about 93 s at 1 kHz, and Freeze takes it to infinite.
- 19 presets, with four new ones: Stratosphere, Aurora, Event Horizon and Supernova
- A resizable window, values shown in their units, double-click to reset, Ctrl for fine moves
