FabFilter has announced the latest member of their “Pro” family of products, Pro-R. A high-end algorithmic reverb, Pro-R features “musical” controls (Brightness, Character, Distance, and Stereo Width) for intuitive operation and natural sound quality designed to enhance any source. Pro-R’s innovative Space control seamlessly switches among dozens of room models with automatic decay time adjustment, and the industry-first Decay Rate EQ introduces free adjustment of the decay time over the frequency spectrum. Pro-R also offers built-in six-band post-reverb EQ and an abundance of high-quality factory presets.
Check out this extensive feature list:
- Beautifully designed room models, ranging from small ambiences and rooms to large concert halls and huge cathedrals.
- Carefully developed to easily sit in the mix, without causing undesirable coloration, density or phase problems.
- Gorgeous Retina interface with large interactive reverb display featuring Decay Rate EQ and Post EQ curves.
- Very easy to set up, with user-friendly, non-technical controls.
- Space control, which combines the room model and decay time of the reverb — choose from over a dozen carefully designed room models and seamlessly vary between them, without hearing clicks or unwanted artifacts.
- Decay Rate control, changing the overall decay time from 50% to 200% of the current Space setting.
- Intelligent Stereo Width control, ranging from pure mono to true stereo and beyond.
- Distance control to adjust the proximity to the sound source in the selected space.
- Character control that changes the sound from a clean, transparent decay to a lively reverb with pronounced reflections and echoes — all the way to an over-modulated chorus-like effect.
- Perfectly tuned Brightness control, affecting not only brightness, but also the decay of high frequencies.
- Predelay control ranging from 0 to 500 ms, with optional tempo sync.
- Innovative six-band Decay Rate EQ with Low/High Shelf, Bell, and Notch filters.
- Six-band Post EQ to equalize the final reverb sound with Low/High Cut up to 96dB/oct, Low/High Shelf, and Bell filters.
- Real-time spectrum analyzer that also visualizes the decay time at different frequencies.
- Full Screen mode, offering a large analyzer display and Decay Rate EQ and Post EQ controller.
- Multiple interface sizes: Medium, Large, and Extra Large.
- Retina support on OS X and High DPI support on Windows.
- GPU-powered graphics acceleration.
- Supports common Pro Tools hardware control surfaces.
