From the makers of SmartPan Pro, the 5.1 surround panner for Pro Tools, comes RealVerb 5.1, the first multichannel reverberation plug-in for Digidesign®'s Pro Tools®.

RealVerb 5.1 uses sophisticated auralization technology to model physical spaces. Its unique ability to morph between room shapes and textures gives users unprecedented creative control over their sound. Perhaps most impressive is the ability to map reverberation spatially for surround mixing. RealVerb 5.1 allows the user to independently place the direct path, early reflections and late field reverberation in the soundfield.

"This is a tool that gives surround mixers a new creative edge" comments Jonathan Abel, Ph.D., Kind of Loud's CTO and lead designer of RealVerb. "After using RealVerb 5.1, it may become difficult to mix without it," adds Abel.

The RealVerb 5.1 Pro Tools TDM version will ship in November 1999; list price has yet to be published. Subsequently, RealVerb 5.1 will be available for other DAW platforms. Kind of Loud is also nearing release of RealVerb, a stereo version that features all of the creative tools and great sound of RealVerb 5.1. RealVerb will be available on a number of platforms, including Digidesign's new Real Time Audio Suite specification.
