TC Electronic has announced the Reverb TwentyFour, a reverberation processor designed specifically for use in ‘extreme’ channel-count formats such as Dolby Atmos, Barco Auro and NHK Multi-Channel.
Reverb TwentyFour is a 19-inch rack unit capable of processing 24 channels of reverb while retaining the quality and low degree of inter-channel correlation found in the Reverb 8 algorithm of TC Electronic’s System 6000. The processor is equipped with Madi connections, and with the flexible and seamless audio routing, you can send any 24 of the 64 Madi channels to and from the three powerful reverb engines.
In addition, a Power Correction feature eliminates the need for re-trimming, by safeguarding the balance between the direct sound and the reverb while mix changes are being done. This gives producers and engineers the freedom to experiment with radical decay time settings and do last minute changes while leaving the overall levels of the mix consistent.
‘We wanted to build an ambitious reverb unit, that points to the future, while keeping the pragmatic present in mind,’ says TC Electronic Director of Product Management, Thomas Valter. ‘Controlling 24 channels of reverb is a far more complex task than simple stereo or 5.1 mixing. But we’ve gone to great lengths to guarantee full, yet simple control over all the channels as well as hundreds of parameters, in an interface that won’t disrupt the established workflow of audio professionals.’
Due to the uncorrelated nature of the reverb channels, Reverb TwentyFour is also suited for acoustic improvement within multipurpose venues, stores and restaurants.
