Rivet 03

Read full description

Rivet 03 - Verb is a three-engine reverb with drive, degradation, and gating built for techno and industrial. Put it on drums, synths, or any bus to add space, from tight concrete rooms to gated snares to lush, blooming swells. Verb works both as a standalone app and an AUv3 plugin. Verb combines the MV2 reverb engine with pre-filters, saturation, lo-fi grit, and tempo-synced gating. Three distinct engines cover tight rooms, 80s gated snare snap, and reverse-style atmospheric swells. KEY FEATURES • Three reverb engines: Concrete (tight rooms), Pit (gated snare), Bloom (swells) • DRIVE saturation and GRIT lo-fi degradation • CLAMP tempo-synced gating with STAGGER rhythmic pulses RIVET SERIES / OPEN SOURCE • Verb is part of my Rivet series of AUv3 effects plugins targeting techno and industrial genres.

REQUIRES • An AUv3-compatible iOS/iPadOS host (for example: AUM, Audiobus, Logic Pro, GarageBand, Loopy Pro, etc.) AUv3 Effect • Works in AUv3 hosts such as AUM, Drambo, Logic, and Cubasis IN-APP PURCHASE Verb includes In-App Purchases for optional tipping.
