What it does

Helmholtz cavity plus parallel body modes.

Add it to a track

Select the destination track, open Plugins, and choose Add Effect. Find this device in Library → Devices → Audio Effects. Effects process the signal from the devices before them in the chain.

Controls

ControlWhat to listen or look for
BodyChooses the resonant-body model.
SizeChanges the apparent size of the resonant space.
DecaySets how long the resonant or reverberant sound takes to fade.
AirAdds an airy component to the resonant sound.
BrightSets how much high-frequency energy the resonator retains.
DrivePushes the signal into nonlinear processing, adding distortion and harmonics.
OutputSets the signal level leaving this stage.
MixBlends the original signal with the processed signal; 100% gives only the processed sound.

Work with this device

Start with a short passage that represents your material. Change one control at a time. Compare at a similar listening level, using the device's power control to bypass it. Save a version of the project before making a large change.
