Custom-Shop Electro-Mechanical Reverb Advanced physically-modeled plate reverb with stunning sound quality Fully-configurable mechanism goes beyond traditional hardware Visual decay editor and expandable UI for efficient workflow.

Explore the deep and rich sound of plate reverb like never before with UVI Plate, an advanced physically-modeled reverb. Plate employs realtime physical-modeling with up to 20,000 modes to achieve new levels of depth and detail, going well beyond the limitation of physical units. Take complete control over your plate’s material and dampening properties and explore a universe of reverb sounds from classics like the EMT140 and 240, and beyond.
Under The Hood
To better understand how to practically utilize the features of Plate let’s take a look at the components:

UVI Plate | Controls
Metal Plate
– I/0 POSITION: Both left and right inputs and outputs can be freely positioned on the metal plate. Greater distance between them results in dispersed transients akin to a spring reverb. Positioning near the edges results in a more thin, nasal sound. Positioning close to center results in a more full sound.
– MATERIAL: select Steel, Gold, Silver, Titanium or Aluminum, each type of metal has a dramatic effect on the decay, experiment with different types of source material
– AREA: from 0.3-6.0m (expressed in steel equivalent), larger values result in higher modal density
– ASPECT: from .05-20, a more square aspect creates an even sound, smaller and longer aspects result in metallic "chirped" transients similar to a spring reverb
– ANISOTROPY: from 0-1%, introduces small defects in the metal resulting in slight, variable detuning of the modes
– TENSION: simulate tension applied to the metal plate, higher values raise the frequency of lower modes
Decay
– DAMPER: from 200ms-infinity, the primary decay control simulates a rigid porous material pressed against the plate to reduce decay time
– FRICTION: multiplier, simulates thermo-elastic loss
– AIR: multiplier, simulates the decay effect of air radiation on the plate
Note: all dampening controls are fitted with sweepable cutoff frequencies allowing natural results
Additional Controls
– OCTAVE-BAND DECAY: adjust the RT60 decay time per octave-band
– OCTAVE-BAND EQ: sculpt your sound with an octave-band EQ
– LOWCUT EQ: a lowcut shelving filter, useful for taming boom and bass-heavy sounds
– PREDELAY: from 0ms-1s, delay the reverberated signal
– DRIVE: from 0-100%, applies a preamp saturation stage to the signal before hitting the plate
– MIX: from 0-100%, mix the wet/dry signal ratio
– QUALITY: allows you to adjust Plate’s performance based on the patch design and your production needs by changing the amount of modes (think of these like voices on a synth). A setting of "Medium" provides a beautiful result in most cases, while a setting of "Insane" simulates 20,000 modes for the ultimate result, but is best suited for offline rendering.
