01Overview

Kuvert takes a different approach to effects processing. Instead of a fixed setting, you draw envelopes that repeat over time and shape the sound as it plays. The plugin includes envelopes for volume, a low cut filter with resonance, a high cut filter with resonance, a glitch envelope that alters timing, and a delay send with tempo-synchronized time, filter and feedback. Because the envelopes loop, the effect locks to the rhythm of your material, which suits beats and other repeating parts.

  • Revitalizing loopable beats
  • Rhythmic filter sweeps
  • Glitch and stutter effects
  • Tempo-synced delay movement
  • Experimental sound design

How the Envelope Looping Works

Kuvert lets you draw five envelopes, either freely or snapped to a grid. Each envelope controls a different effect parameter, and each one loops. The incoming audio does not loop, so the effect runs across your signal while the envelope pattern repeats.

The developer describes this as a way to alter sounds in a way that can become hard to recognize. Because the pattern repeats, it stays consistent with the groove of a looped part, which makes it practical for rhythmic processing.

Filters, Glitch and Delay Controls

The two filter envelopes each include resonance, so you can sweep low cut and high cut behavior over time. The glitch envelope changes timing, which can break up a loop in a rhythmic way.

The delay send envelope is tempo synchronized and includes its own filter and feedback controls. Together, these give you a way to add repeats and movement that follow the pattern you draw.
