A new convolution reverb by Trillium Lane Labs
Trillium Lane Labs has announced TL Space, a new reverb plug-in for Pro Tools. The developer claims TL Space combines the best offerings of convolution reverb with the traditional controls of synthetic reverbs. It is the first Pro Tools plug-in to deliver a number of technical breakthroughs that unleash the full power of the Pro Tools HD platform and erase the difference that previously existed between high end reverb hardware units and software reverb processing. Finally, the promise of convolution reverb processing is available directly inside Pro Tools with no compromises.
Recent advances in reverb processing technology for digital audio have come with strings attached. Although convolution reverb offers excellent realism by sampling real reverb spaces, the downside of limited control of reverb parameters and heavy CPU overheads have slowed adoption. In addition, users of convolution reverbs have found library formats incompatible, restricting their ability to mix and match impulses between reverbs. Finally, the heavy CPU overhead of native convolution reverbs has made their use in live sessions difficult due to high latency.
By combining the sampled acoustics of real reverb spaces with advanced DSP algorithms, TL Space delivers stunning realism with full control of reverb parameters. Using the latest Pro Tools HD Accel hardware to the maximum benefit, TL Space harnesses up to eight Pro Tools HD DSP engines in parallel to deliver smooth, low latency convolution processing. The processing power of multiple HD Accel DSP engines allows TL Space to deliver zero latency processing essential for live studio work.
TL Space will be available in native and TDM editions in June 2004, exclusively from Digidesign and authorized Digidesign dealers.
