The M7 provides numerous early reflection patterns specifically designed to avoid the phasing and other acoustically undesirable effects experienced in many reverb early reflection modules. In a typical mix one rarely perceives reverb once it decays to 20 dB below the onset level so a high quality early reflection engine is of particular importance. Customisation of early reflection timing characteristics These filters have been accurately modelled on the M7’s filter model curves. This truly redefines the boundaries of possibility in a sampled reverb making it suitable for even the most demanding of professional producers.ĭepending on the algorithm version the preset is originally taken from (either M7 algorithm v1 or v2) a shallow (for v2) or steep (for v1) filter curve is used for the late reverb component. Every filter position available on the hardware can be selected, brightening or darkening the reverb just it would do with the hardware. Seventh Heaven Professional provides authentic and full control over these two key parameters in either direction. A basic roll-off, bell or shelf filter can be useful for reducing spectral content if an inauthentic filter curve shape is acceptable, but is incapable of providing additional spectral content beyond that originally sampled. This hugely limits scope when mixing if the early reflections or late reverb needs brightening. Typically when an M7 preset is sampled these filter positions are fixed and cannot later be modified. The M7 provides two distinct frequency roll-off controls, one for the early reflections and one for the late reverb. These have an enormous impact on the character of the reverb taking it from bright and shimmering to deep and dark. Seventh Heaven Professional is able to reproduce a similar effect using supplementary multi-band filtering of independently generated reverb decay curves.Īuthentic early reflection and late reverb roll-off filtering This is crucial for the accurate simulation of many acoustic spaces. Many algorithmic reverbs provide the ability to extend or contract the reverb decay in low and high frequency bands. Judicious use of advanced data selection techniques and lossless compression technologies result in a similar disk space requirement to that of the original M7 Fusion-IRs. Seventh Heaven Professional solves such problems through extensive multi-sampling and intelligent interpolation algorithms. However factors such as simulated room size, low frequency response and diffusion/density should be linked to decay time so traditional controls considerably compromise acoustic authenticity. The decay time challengeĪ convolution reverb will typically be able to window a decay time with envelopes of varying complexity, apply pitch/stretch control, and some even allow rudimentary multi-band length modification. Seventh Heaven Professional provides arbitrary reverb decay times from 200 ms up to 30 seconds for every preset and includes multi-band decay length multipliers – an unprecedented feat particularly for modulated convolution reverbs. See and hear for yourself in the audio and video clips. All in a beautiful, modern and immediately approachable graphical interface. Now you can experience the power to change reverb early reflection patterns, decay times, delays, and the tone of the roll-off filters just as thousands of leading producers do on the actual M7 hardware. Production techniques that were previously impossible with a convolution reverb can be accomplished with ease. Seventh Heaven Professional’s advanced digital signal processing techniques intertwine with controls that closely mirror those of the M7 presenting the freedom of an algorithmic reverb with the breathtaking clarity and authenticity of a Fusion-IR reverb. They blend reproduction with reimagination. The best software recreations of classic hardware capture not only the sound – they capture the experience. By combining the realism of Fusion-IR with an extensive multi-sampling of the legendary hardware reverb, Seventh Heaven Professional truly redefines contemporary producers’ expectations of any native software reverb plug-in. LiquidSonics’ Seventh Heaven Professional is dedicated to the reproduction of the most sought after hardware reverberation tool of a generation – the Bricasti M7.
