How UNVEIL Separates Reverb From a Mixed Signal

Zynaptiq says UNVEIL is not an expander, envelope shaper or spectral thresholding processor. The developer states that it does not use phase cancellation or inter-channel correlation analysis. Because of this, it can work on mono sources and on any surround format your DAW supports, without changing signal dynamics.

According to Zynaptiq, UNVEIL uses a model of the human auditory system to identify which parts of the signal are reverb. Those components are separated for processing, and the amount of reverb is adjusted with a slider.

Controls for Reverb and Mud Reduction

UNVEIL can attenuate reverb to make a recording drier, or boost it to add room character to a close-miked source. The developer says it also offers parameters for changing reverb characteristics.

The same processing targets signal components that the auditory system considers less significant, which Zynaptiq says includes what many engineers call mud. Reducing these components can bring key elements forward in a mix. The developer also notes that the interface offers wide adjustment range rather than a simplified easy mode.
