MasterVerb DX Reverb Plug-in Latest Release from Wave Arts
August 14, 2001
Wave Arts, Inc., a
developer of audio plug-ins and digital signal processing technology,
announced the release of MasterVerb DX, a professional quality reverb
plug-in for DirectX compatible applications.
MasterVerb DX is a true stereo reverb with a natural
sound and a silky-smooth decay. Independent room size and decay time
parameters allow simulation of a variety of spaces - from studio rooms to
warm concert halls to bright cathedrals.
MasterVerb DX features a responsive and informative 3-D plot of your
reverb's characteristics, updated in real-time as you tweak control knobs
for decay time, room size, early damping, late damping, and low frequency
scale. An added 2-D control helps you set your desired room response in
just seconds!
This professional quality plug-in is the result of over three years of
research and development at Wave Arts. It has been meticulously engineered
to achieve maximum efficiency without any compromise in sound. Wave Arts claims that MasterVerb DX is at least twice as fast as competing DirectX
reverb plug-ins, such as Sonic Timeworks' Reverb 4080L, ANWIDA Soft's DX
Reverb, and Spin Audio's RoomVerb. This CPU savings translates into more
plug-ins and more tracks for your project. (CPU usage measured by monitoring Sound Forge's CPU % indicator while
previewing a 44.1kHz 16-bit stereo file within each effect; tests performed
on a 500MHz Pentium III system, with 64MB RAM, running Windows 98.)
