B2 is a multi-engine, modular non-linear spatial processor that has built-in harmonic distortion as well as dynamically flexible. Each generation builds on the lessons learned from the previous one while introducing its own distinct characteristic and feature set. However, with a handful of special effects presets, the number increased to at times to 50.ī2 is the third generation from our extensive collection of world-class reverbs as well as spatial processors.

The majority of Aether presets consumed about 11 % of the 2.4GHz dual-core processor.

If you’re looking to live an easier experience, Aether’s browser page lets you focus on selecting from the numerous and diverse presets available. Also, they can provide authentic soundscapes and even more extreme special effects. It’s a good idea to study up these parameters to allow you to steer the sound in the direction you prefer. Other controls include Absorption, Shape, Position, Color, HF Soft (a high-shelving filter) as well as stereo crossover using the ER Cross knob. This results in more natural frequency response. Imagine this as rotating the walls in both directions by a tiny amount in order to reduce the accumulation of metallic and ringing overtones.

One of the main reasons algorithms like those produced by Bricasti, Lexicon, and TC Electronic appear less polished in comparison to convolution styles is due to the presence of a Reverb parameter modulation. For more details about this feature, download the Aether Manual that is available within the Links and Downloads section above and also read its “Understanding the Cross-Width and Wide” section. In addition, Aether also offers the traditional Mono-to stereo mode, which can help minimize CPU usage when required. Aether also offers these modes in software and takes it one step further with “Cross” along with “Width” controls that permit the reverb to seamlessly blend between Dual Mono, to effectively the summed Mono input, or Dual Mono with reversed channels and everything in-between. The top hardware manufacturers have been aware of this for years and have developed advanced options like True Stereo or Dual Mono. In these situations, the panning and spatial information of the source are ignored as all sources are believed to be coming from a single point within the Reverb. They provide over 800 new and innovative presets to use as is and as building blocks for unlimited refinement and personalization. The presets that are included in these packs were developed by top sound designers and engineers all over the world. The B2 preset extensions are designed to assist users to maximize the use of B2 and fully explore all the features that are new in version 1.2.
