01Overview

Ether is built around a reverb section with eight distinct space settings and controls for pre-delay, reverb time and damping. Beyond the core reverb, it adds five fully bypassable modules covering pitch shifting, pitch modulation, delay, animation and a compressor, plus an LFO/envelope section for modulation. The developer positions it as a tool for shaping sound well beyond conventional room and hall effects, and it can be applied to vocals, guitars, synths and drums.

Reverb Processing and Post-Reverb Shaping

The reverb core offers eight space settings, with pre-delay, reverb time and damp controls for shaping the decay. After the reverb, an EQ and filter section lets you adjust the tone of the tail.

The five additional modules can be bypassed individually, so you can use the reverb on its own or add processing only where you need it. The pitch module includes a shifting algorithm with a range of intervals and an algorithm selector for matching different source material, along with shape, depth and rate controls for pitch modulation.

Delay, Animation and Modulation Tools

The delay section includes BPM sync, a cross-feed control for bouncing delay effects, and several input routing options that can take the signal from the dry, pitched, reverb or mixed path.

The animation section offers a range of shapes with rate, tonal balance, color and smoothing controls, and it can sync to tempo. The LFO/envelope section provides four modulation modes, BPM sync, a retrigger threshold with metering, and two assignable destinations with independent depth and invert controls.
