Voxengo Sobor

Sobor is a stereo reverberation effect AU, AAX, and VST plugin for professional music production applications.  This reverb plugin provides a wide palette of reverb spaces while requiring only a minimal effort to obtain useful results.  The tails created by this reverb are very dense and produce a well-defined spatialization.  Since the reverb uses a kind of “true-stereo” algorithm the panned sounds receive a good stereo-field placement.  We believe Sobor provides one of the lushest and widest reverb tails available on the market.

Beside producing a shining reverb sound at medium and larger space settings, Sobor is equally great-sounding at ultra-small space settings, going as far as being able to imitate guitar cabinet sound at 100% wet setting.  Sobor can even be used to “re-cabinet” a bass-guitar sound yielding very natural results.

The early reflections placement and reverb levels are chosen automatically based on a pre-defined model that depends on the “Size” and “Ambience” parameters.  Additionally, the user may specify the “Pre-Delay” and “Stereo Width” parameters.  Sobor is technically based on Feedback Delay Networks (FDNs) with the Hadamard matrix, and uses self-modulation techniques.

Sobor is great on any sound sources: vocals, guitars, synths, drums, mixes.  This reverb is a relatively CPU-demanding effect: for comfortable use it requires a higher-end processor.
