01Overview

Comet is a reverb plugin built around preset morphing. Instead of switching between static settings, you can glide between up to five saved presets, changing the space in real time. Polyverse describes the algorithm as smooth and rich, with a detune section intended to add musical depth. Comet is designed to create trails of sound rather than model the physics of a real room, and it can be applied to vocals, melodic instruments, drums and sound effects.

Sound and Character of the Comet Reverb

Comet is designed to produce sustained, colorful trails rather than a realistic room simulation. Polyverse says the reverb captures the essence of a beautiful space, and its detune algorithm is meant to add richness and movement to the tail.

A saturation module placed after the input gain adds density to the signal before it enters the reverb. This can help the reverb fill out thin sources, though the amount and character of the saturation depend on how hard you drive the input.

Preset Morphing and Workflow Controls

The core workflow revolves around five preset slots. Using the glide control, you can transition between these settings smoothly, which suits reverb changes that unfold across a section of a track.

Pre delay and glide can be set in milliseconds or in rhythmic subdivisions, so timing can lock to the tempo of your project. Parameters can be locked to keep consistent settings across presets, and every parameter supports MIDI and CV control, making the reverb automatable from your sequencer or modular setup.

Comet runs on Windows and macOS, in 64-bit versions only. On Mac, it supports macOS 11 Big Sur and M1 Apple Silicon, and Mac OS X 10.9 or later. On Windows, it requires Windows 7 SP1 or later.

What does the preset morphing do?

Comet has five preset slots. A glide control lets you smoothly transition between up to five different settings, so the reverb can change gradually over time.

What hardware does Comet need?

The minimum requirements are an Intel Core 2 Duo or higher (or AMD Athlon 64x2 on Windows) and 4GB of RAM.

Can I automate Comet?

Yes. Polyverse states that every parameter supports MIDI and CV control.
