Shimmer

Intro

Use Shimmer to bathe your production into an ethereal ambiance and create a lush and evolving atmosphere with this innovative effect combining octave pitch-shifting, long reverb, and delay.

Description

Shimmer provides all the tools you need to sculpt an organic soundscape that flows and transforms. The plugin’s pitch shifting section allows precise individual control over both the generated octave up and below the source signal. The built-in delay and reflection controls also let you craft the most suitable atmosphere for your session. The Low and High Cut filters allow for additional control over the frequency content of the reverb tail. With up to 30 seconds of adjustable decay, you can achieve a vast array of spaces – from wide-open ones to dense, reflective rooms. For producers looking to create a dreamy, ambient feel, Shimmer is a must-try.

History

Shimmer was Inspired by the signature reverb sound created by the influential musicians and record producers Brian Eno and Daniel Lanois, as showcased on their boundary-pushing collaborative albums. Whether you are working with acoustic or amplified instruments, or working on otherworldly sound design ambiances, this plugin was designed for those looking to conquer unknown territories with their production.
