It can go a bit hard on the processor but that is understandable. The presets do a great job of showcasing what is possible and act as good places to start off from - a ‘Stretch too Far’ and ‘Cascades’ are my favorite for creating soothing ambient tracks. I’ve been running miRack, Spacecraft, Model 15, etc. into it and getting great results out. ### 5/5 — Simple et efficace *2021-07-27* Tout est dit ### 5/5 — Nonlinear Heaven! *2021-05-19* This replaced an old 90s Ensoniq unit that I only use for the nonlinear reverbs. Brilliant! Bought it for desktop too. Love the sounds it can produce. Keep up the great work! ### 5/5 — Quick to Dial it in *2021-05-18* And it sounds great! Loving it. A no brainer. ### 5/5 — A different way of thinking about delays *2021-05-16* This app can be thought of as letting you build your own impuse response delay. Since it's an AU, you can chain them together and make some insane feedback effects. Not for people with a strong attachment to reality. ### 5/5 — Beautiful *2021-05-12* Velvet Machine is a beautiful effect that adds a wonderful texture to all kinds of instruments (virtual and hardware). Highly recommended app from a great iOS developer! ### 5/5 — Brilliant *2021-01-16* So good with so many effects brilliant app ### 5/5 — My new go-to app *2020-12-10* I wasn’t convinced that I needed this one but took the plunge anyway, and am so glad that I did! Whether playing guitar or keyboard through my IPad, this has become the first effect that I reach for. Thank you to the dev for an absolute peach of a reverby thang! ### 5/5 — Great sound designer *2020-10-23* Another quality app there Yuri, I have been enjoying this app on anything I can throw at it so far, looking forward to using it more! ### 5/5 — An Ambient/Post Rock Gem *2020-10-23* This effect is wonderful for ambient and post rock sounds. It does things that ordinarily require a few chained plugins to accomplish, and even then it would be difficult to imitate. It has a predictability about it that is rare in a reverb type effect, but it allows you to use it in ways normally reserved for a delay. If washes of sound, and strange ambiences are your thing, this is the way. ### 5/5 — Yuri lo ha vuelto a hacer *2020-10-21, version 1.0.0* Después de Xynth y Shoom no podía decepcionarnos, y no lo ha hecho. Genial herramienta de diseño sonoro (ojo, lee antes de comprar, no es una reverb al uso). Muy recomendable. ### 5/5 — Parkinson *2020-10-21* Wow!! Exactly what I was looking for. I’ve got plenty of shimmer Apps but this is different. I added it to the master bus of a A finished track and and it transformed it completely. Love it ### 5/5 — A confession *2020-10-19* I feel asleep listening to Gavinskis tutorial of this app...I usually pay attention to things of interest but woke up to the most chilling vocal soundscape I had heard for a long while. Super cool ..sonic impact ..glad to be scared ...effects mostly should have an effect 👏👏👏👏. Anyways have spent several hours experimenting with this app and it’s a keeper......it leads you down or up sonic pathways and by ways you might never have thought of...it’s Velvet Definitely recommended 🙏👏👏👏🎩🦄 ### 5/5 — Superb fx *2020-10-17, version 1.0.0* Ouah! This app is a soundscape dream machine! Nice and intuitive GUI. But it can be hard on CPU depending on the setting. Amazing soundesign tool! ### 5/5 — Amazing sounds *2020-10-17* This brings any synth or drum to life adding unique textures. It also has a really solid reverb, delay sounds as well as really interesting sound design elements. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amazing Textures and Reverse Reverb! *2026-01-11* I love this app, unfortunately I hadn’t used it much because I have so many other effect apps. But I happen to be playing inside AUM, I had a midi Guitar app open, trying to get a good sounding acoustic setting. As I said I have so many Auv3 apps, that are perfect for guitars, that it is habit to go to certain apps that I ALREADY know work well…. But this day I wanted something different… I opened Velvet and that first opening preset made me go…”Wait! What’s this app called?’ I started going through presets, which like so many of us use as a jumping off point to create our own presets, dialing them in to meet a need we have. But with this app, I kept loving each preset. This thing just lights up each note passing through! I found that I had been playing for hours without realizing the time that had passed! Just perfect sound textures, reverse reverbs, and amazing delayed/verbs! Don’t pass this app up! If you want a great reverb or looking for thickness to make your “Acoustic Guitar” or maybe you have your electric guitar and want to solo, open this app, and dial in your sound! You will be happy you did! ### 5/5 — Вельвет и Бархат *2025-07-08* Бархат и вельвет Рахат лукум и щербеты !) Спасибо Шикарный эффект для творчеств ### 5/5 — sweeet *2025-05-26* grab it you wont regret it ### 5/5 — Reverb diferente y asombroso *2024-11-16, version 1.2.0* Me encanta. Sería genial una actualización!! ### 5/5 — Better than Your Reverb *2024-04-23* I don’t care what reverb you’re using. This is better (or at least as good). It’s more fun than a reverb because well - you get to draw your envelope and the system for this is epic. Come one, come all. Put your spring reverb in the garage where it belongs, call your neighbors, tell them you’re playing their new favorite song. ### 5/5 — Un Reverb que es mejor que un reverb. ¡Es original único! *2023-04-29, version 1.2.0* Tiene un sonido extraordinario, es fácil de usar y barato. ¡Justo lo que buscaba! Es “terciopelo”. ### 5/5 — Lush and subtle *2023-03-23, version 1.2.0* Why does anyone need another app like this? Because this is not like any other app of its type. Seriously, if what you are looking for is an app that has that special difference, something that can be used on a component of a track to produce a unique texture, then this is the app you are looking for. Fabulous. ### 5/5 — excellent *2023-03-22* it sounds like no other: thanks, Yuri! ### 5/5 — 比效果器优美动听 *2022-10-16* 希望能出更有趣效果器 ### 5/5 — Unique tool!!! *2022-02-17* Some wishes left: Midi in to trigger, vertical lines in the curve editor, to see Bars/Beats/Time, snap to grid and an amp to get back volume in case it became too low.
