01Overview

Resonant Reverb is built around a plate reverb engine with up to a 47-second decay, but its filters can be used on their own. Resonant high-pass and low-pass filters sit both before and after the reverb, so you can control how sound enters and leaves the space. Épica Audio developed the plugin with producer and engineer Joe Chiccarelli, and it ships with 58 factory presets created by him. The plugin supports Windows and macOS.

Filters, Saturation and Reverb in One Chain

The two resonant filters are the core of the design. One sits before the reverb and one after it, each with independent high-pass and low-pass resonance controls. The first filter includes analog harmonic saturation, which adds warmth and density before the signal reaches the reverb.

The post-reverb filter is clean, so resonant sweeps applied to the tail stay clear. Automating the resonant filters produces sweeping resonances and metallic tails, which suits sound design as much as traditional mixing.

The plate reverb can be used in tight, focused spaces or in large atmospheric settings. A stereo width control lets you adjust the spread of the output.

Compression and Presets for Mixing

An integrated compression stage inspired by the 1176 adds density and energy to the signal. Each module can be bypassed independently, so you can use the reverb, the filters or the compressor alone. Disable the reverb and the plugin works as a dual-filter tone-shaping processor.

The 58 factory presets by Joe Chiccarelli are built as complete processing chains rather than simple reverb settings. They are a practical starting point for drums, guitars, synths, vocals and 808s, and they show how the modules can be combined.
