01Overview

Biverb by United Plugins is built around a simple idea: two reverbs can do what one cannot. Each of its two reverb units has its own set of algorithms, and a crossover determines how the incoming signal is divided between them. The split can follow frequency, volume, stereo position or mid/side content. Each reverb also has its own modulation section and ducker, so the two sides of a mix can be treated differently. Biverb is available as a plugin for Windows and macOS in VST3, VST2, AU and AAX formats.

Two Reverb Units and Four Split Modes

Biverb gives you two independent reverb units, each with Spring, Room, Plate, Chamber, Hall and Shimmer algorithms. You can blend them to layer reverb textures or keep them separate for contrast.

The crossover decides which reverb receives which part of the signal. Frequency mode splits the audio around an adjustable frequency, so low and high content can get different reverbs. Volume mode routes quieter and louder passages to different units. Stereo mode sends left and right to separate reverbs, and Mid/Side mode treats the center and the sides independently. The developer says the Mid/Side approach is rare in reverb plugins.

Modulation, Ducking and Bypass

Each reverb has its own modulation section, which lets you shape the two sides differently, for example with modulation on the sides and none on the mids.

Both reverbs include an independent ducker. When a new dry signal arrives at the input, the ducker lowers the wet level so the direct sound keeps its punch and attack. Smart bypass is designed to avoid clicks or noise when you automate the parameter, and it compensates for latency so the bypassed and active signals stay in sync.
