Please note: this is an AUv3 plugin that can be used with compatible host Apps. TimeVerb-X is a new plugin from GSi that combines GSi's “classic” Type4 spring reverb, first released in 2008, and a new algorithmic digital reverb. The “Type4” spring reverb emulation was originally inspired by an Accutronics reverb tank type 4, like those used in classic Hammond organs of the A100 series, also used in many famous electric guitar amplifiers. The digital reverb, instead, was first developed for the GSi Gemini sound module, but was also included in some Crumar hardware instruments. Both effects have been slightly expanded and further improved for the release of TimeVerb-X, as the spring reverb now features a self-oscillating feedback decay adjustment and a stereo width knob, and the digital reverb includes the early reflections section that was missing in the original project. Both reverbs put together make up a great sound when working in parallel, and create some interesting atmospheres when working in series. TimeVerb-X main features: - Spring reverb "Type 4" with feedback and stereo operation - Digital reverb with pre-delay, early reflections and room size adjustment - Built-in programmer with unlimited number of Programs (comes with 16 factory Programs) - Integrated user's manual - Comes with AUv3 extension

Drikus Demo Deck — four tracks, as fast as Voice Memos. For the moment a song shows up and you need it on tape before it leaves again. Record onto four tracks, overdub without losing the take, and find the song again later — even if all you remember is one line from the lyrics. Built for actual songwriting, not just voice notes - Four tracks with arm, volume, pan, mute, solo, and live meters - Per-track three-band EQ, saved with the session - Multiple clips per track, gap-accurate — silence stays silence - Precise overdub timing, compensated for your headphones' real latency, with a manual nudge for stubborn gear - Bounce all four tracks down to one, undoable until your next bounce - Export to M4A or WAV and share anywhere - Import audio from Files, or share a Voice Memo straight in - Pick separate microphone and output devices per session Find the song, not just the file Forty sessions in, "Aug 26 · Marigold" tells you nothing. Search the shelf by a word from the title, your notes, or anything the phone heard on a take you asked it to listen to. On-device transcription (iOS 26+) means nothing ever leaves your phone — it's there to help you find the song, not to write down the lyrics. Nothing leaves your phone. No accounts, no uploads, no cloud. Your takes stay yours.
