Used a combination of convolution and modelling to recreate the vintage character of each reverb.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSpring reverbs were usually paired with tone stacks from guitar amplifiers. Springs features one of the most iconic and unique sounding tone stack equalizers: the Baxandall EQ. A classic Baxandall tone stack usually features just the bass and treble bands,     but have also added a Mid band (with control over the Q).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3 id=\"baxandalleq\"\u003eBAXANDALL EQ\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Baxandall EQ is a classic type of EQ, mostly found in guitar amps, and usually limited to just a single tone control or two bands (bass and treble).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAdded a third band (mid with Q control) to shape the reverb sound further. One important characteristic of the Baxandall EQ is that the bands interact with each other.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis may seem like an unwanted behavior, but it’s one of the reasons why the Baxandall EQ curves are smooth and musical.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3 id=\"editor\"\u003eEDITOR\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eBy clicking on the wrench tool button you can open the editor window.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSprings uses a combination of convolution and modeling to recreate each spring reverb. With the editor you can edit the impulse response of the reverb directly.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis can be useful to fine-tune the size\/decay of the reverb, but can also be used to completely mangle the source (check the experimental presets).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3 id=\"bandwidth\"\u003eBANDWIDTH\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhile with the Baxandall EQ you can shape the sound of the mix (dry+wet) or just the wet signal, with the Bandwidth control you can filter the input signal that goes into the spring emulation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSome springs have a boomy low end, some are too bright and bouncing. By limiting the bandwidth of the signal you can dampen these characteristics.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3 id=\"howspringreverbswork\"\u003eHOW SPRING REVERBS WORK\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eA spring reverb is an electromechanical device that uses transducers\/pickups with steel springs in order to simulate the reflections of a reverb.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe input signal is passed through a transducer to one or multiple springs, the vibrations are then captured by an output transducer on the opposite side.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eUsing multiple springs with different sizes and different thickness can create a more interesting and rich reverb sound.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3 id=\"features\"\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e     \u003cli\u003e15 Vintage Spring Reverbs\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003eBaxandall EQ (three bands)\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003e80 Presets\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003eResizable Window\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003ePreset system with randomizer\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3 id=\"systemrequirements\"\u003eSYSTEM REQUIREMENTS:\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWINDOWS\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e     \u003cli\u003eWindows 7, 8, 10\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003e2 GHz CPU, 4 GB RAM\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003eVST2, VST3, or AAX (64-bit)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMAC\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e     \u003cli\u003eOS X 10.9 – macOS 11\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003e2 GHz CPU, 4 GB RAM\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003eVST2, VST3, AU, or AAX (64-bit)\u003c\/li\u003e     \u003cli\u003eUniversal 2 Binary\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"AUDIOTHING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44450800336999,"sku":"170988","price":69.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/audiothing-springs_170988_1_b1756c74-8b3e-476e-8132-9a59d07ac606.jpg?v=1787094577","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/audiothing-springs","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
