## What is GliderVerb?

GliderVerb is a “Reverberator with Glissandos” simulating a room gradually changing its shape. It is an expanded version of an algorithm created by James McCartney for his Supercollider 2 programming language.
The original algorithm had no user-variable parameters: this device adds a series of parameters to create a wide palette of effects; from evolving reverberations to granular disintegration to smooth resonances.

Main Features:

- Audiobus and Inter-App Audio support (sender and FX)
- Continually Modulated Reverb Algorithm
- Pitch Resonator
- Ribbon Resonance Player
- Pad impulse generator
- Built In Stereo Sampler with varispeed
- Control Manager LFO for Parameters
- Midibus, Virtual Midi and Network: 14 bit NRPN controllers
- File Manager, sharing common audio files via iTunes, Dropbox and AudioCopy
- Snapshots Presets Morphing Pad
- Post Fx Chain: Low-shelf Filter, High-shelf and Compressor

New Version! We removed the "annoying voice" and now you can use all the Gliderverb features, even the Pad and the Ribbon. The only limitation is you can't save new presets; but you still can load the old ones you made, using the two arrows you find on the left and right side of the preset name (top side of the main window).
With the in-App purchase you can access the Preset Manager, Control Manager and MIDI enable the Pad.

## Key features

- Continually modulated reverb algorithm
- Pitch resonator
- Ribbon resonance player
- Built-in stereo sampler
- Control manager LFO
- Audiobus and Inter-App Audio support
- Preset morphing pad

### 4/5 — Audiobus problems restoring paid app

*2024-12-12*

Whenever i open gliderverb in audiobus it takes me to a screen requesting the proof of purchase restore inapp, but inthe current app theres nothing displayed on the respective screen as the white menu with shop aand restore functions either stalls out or draws blank,thus i cannot use it in audiobus...please fix

### 5/5 — Rediscovering this as an AUM drone feedback dream

*2021-11-03*

I must admit I’d somewhat neglected this in my library previously; hadn’t properly taken the time to use it when I first got it and forgot the depth it was hiding.

Now really enjoying using it as an AUv3 in AUM for no-input-mixer-ish feedback; love how easy it is to dial in a load of modulation etc and the delicate ethereal structures that can be formed. In fact, I think I’m going to take some inspiration from the UI for some of my own work. I digress.

I notice that “shared user presets” aren’t implemented. Not sure if they’re awkward to integrate with the existing preset system, or if the developer hasn’t got ‘round to it. Hopefully overriding “supportsUserPresets” and “currentPreset” wouldn’t be too onerous.

### 5/5 — LOVE THIS & ALL OF YOUR CREATIONS 🦄

*2021-06-20*

Thank you so much for your time & thought put into these creations! All of these apps work so well and are like a portable modular environment :) 

One small request is in the LFO section to either default to nothing for the Hz frequency or to be able to save a preset for the LFO b/c otherwise every time you go to start an LFO it automatically distorts at a predetermined speed. This makes it nearly impossible to do live LFO manipulation that would be more accurate to tempo rhythm and pitch without disturbing the flow of things. 

Another suggestion would be to maybe try to create a visual UI or partner with people who do. I’ve been loving Mazetools Mutant, Insonic, Tc Performer & music games or anything with a graphics UI lately & feel this could push your apps into new territory with people interested in abstract interfaces & expression.

All of your apps are 5 stars and a purchase for sure though!

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2020-10-17*

It’s one of those app that you simply don’t know how it is possible they are so good. Also, it does not seem it gets enough mention. Super super powerful and creating great sounds. There are so many great things in this app! You have to try it!

### 5/5 — Endless fun and incredible studio tool

*2020-07-16*

Brilliant audio app. Can’t wait to dig more into this, as well as any other work of these great developers. Amazing job to all involved with this!

### 4/5 — It’s all great except for AUv3.

*2019-09-08*

I liked the app so much I invested on the in-app purchase to get the AUv3. To my disappointment the AUv3 is quite inferior to the app in functionality so I think I’ll end up using this as inter-app audio which isn’t ideal since it means having a second app on the background. 

Please consider adding the same functionality of the full app to the AUv3: Considering it is the main purpose of buying the 7 dollar in-app purchase, it really should offer more than simple knobs to tweak when in AUv3 mode. 

It almost feels as if using the free version is better than paying for the AUv3 version! I didn’t check if I could load it into ApeMatrix as inter-app audio before doing the in-app purchase but I have a feeling I could have. As far as I can tell the only major difference is the AUv3 support and preset saving. This is precisely why I don’t understand why the AUv3 feels like a downgraded version of the full-app.

Other than that, I’m always pleased with the amazing apps that both ApeSoft and AmazingNoises put out.

### 2/5 — Labels still ridiculously small...

*2019-06-04*

...and difficult to read, which is why I really don’t use this app. Otherwise it’s great.

### 5/5 — Bleikr Sound Approved App

*2019-05-11*

Studio quality app with many variables + sampling rates.

### 2/5 — 堀さん

*2019-04-17*

2年前なら素晴らしかったが、今ならeos-2の方が遥かに上。他社リバーブも良い物はある。わざわざこれを選ぶ理由は無くなった

### 2/5 — AudioShare sample import

*2018-10-26*

What’s the issue with AudioShare upload? Every time I try to import sample it just crashes and sample doesn’t load.
