A New Era of Reverb Temperance Lite represents the next step for reverb technology, offering a new approach to shape ambiance. It responds to the language of music, encouraging you to explore reverb in a new way. Unlike a traditional algorithmic or convolution reverb, Temperance Lite lets you control reverb resonances using the familiar 12-note chromatic scale. This allows you to choose which notes bloom or wither within your chosen space, creating musical ambiances that were previously unattainable Modal Reverb Technology Imagine a room filled with thousands of tuning forks, each tuned to a different frequency. What if you could control the loudness and decay of each one? Temperance models reverberant spaces as thousands of independent resonances (modes), all adjustable in real time. While convolution reverbs capture a space in a single snapshot, Temperance builds it piece by piece, letting you shape how each mode decays or resonates. The Temper Knob The heart of Temperance is its signature Temper knob. At noon, Temperance Lite functions like a traditional reverb. Turn it clockwise to adjust the degree to which selected notes ring out with your music. Turn it counterclockwise to de-emphasize the selected notes. The Science of Modal Reverb Each mode is represented by an independent resonator with four adjustable parameters: frequency, decay time, amplitude, and phase. When thousands of these resonators work together, they create highly detailed reverberant spaces with unparalleled control and flexibility. By selecting and adjusting modes based on their musicality, Temperance Lite can achieve sounds previously not possible with other reverbs. Upgrade to Temperance Pro Step up to Temperance Pro, and discover the full power of modal reverb. Expanding from Lite, it adds chromatic control, advanced shaping tools, and 29 precision-built spaces.
