EverSpace is an algorithmic reverb designed for creating enormous spaces, evolving ambience and richly modulated echoes. Built upon the CloudSeed engine by Ghost Note Audio, its architecture draws inspiration from the algorithmic studio reverbs of the 1980s, where networks of delays and diffusion were used to create spaces that extended far beyond the limits of the physical world. Rather than attempting to recreate a particular room, hall or vintage hardware unit, EverSpace embraces the more creative possibilities of algorithmic reverb. Dense diffusion, multiple delay stages and extensive modulation allow sounds to bloom into vast, constantly moving environments — from spacious reflections and drifting echoes to seemingly endless atmospheric tails. At more extreme settings, EverSpace becomes much more than a conventional reverb. Simple sounds can be transformed into thick evolving pads, shimmering textures and expansive ambient soundscapes, with subtle variations within the reverb network ensuring that the resulting space remains alive and in motion. EverSpace can be used as a traditional send or insert effect, but it is at its best when treated as a creative sound-design tool where the reverb itself becomes part of the sound. Features ○ CloudSeed algorithmic reverb engine — a sophisticated multi-stage architecture inspired by classic algorithmic studio reverbs. ○ Early reflection and diffusion network — control density, delay, modulation and feedback to shape the initial character of the space. ○ Extensive late-reverb section — create everything from diffuse ambience to enormous, slowly evolving reverb tails. ○ Deep modulation — independently shape the movement of diffusion and delay stages for lush, animated spaces. ○ Multi-tap delay stage — adds rhythmic reflections, echoes and additional complexity before the main reverb network. ○ Integrated equalisation — low and high frequency shaping plus filtering to sculpt the colour and decay of the reverb. ○ Seed controls — regenerate the internal delay and diffusion structures to produce different variations from the same settings. ○ Interpolation modes — alter the behaviour and character of the internal delay network. ○ Real-time visualisation — waveform and frequency displays provide visual feedback as sounds enter and evolve through EverSpace.

VU202 FX brings the sound and behavior of the free VU202 app into your AUv3 workflow. It uses the same VU202 engine, rebuilt as a compact audio effect for producers who want that crunchy sampler character directly inside their favorite iOS host. Run drums, loops, synths, vocals, or whole buses through the VU202 signal path. Shape the tone with four character modes: HIFI, STANDARD, LOFI, and LOFI2. Choose LEFT, RIGHT, MONO, or STEREO input routing, set pad-style volume, then build your own six-slot effects chain. Available effects include Pitch, Pitch Free, Filter LP, Filter HP, Filter BP, EQ Low, EQ Mid, EQ High, Comp, Drum Comp, Limit, Delay, Tape Delay, Flanger, Phaser, Reverb, Ring Mod, and Vinyl Sim. Use it for gritty resampling color, lo-fi drums, filtered breaks, unstable tape-style echoes, pitch-shifted textures, crushed mono grooves, animated modulation, vinyl wear, and simple SP-style tone shaping without leaving your AUv3 session. VU202 FX is not a generic clean effect. It is made to give your audio the attitude of the VU202 engine: direct, rough, musical, and fast to control.
