What Zynaptiq ADAPTIVERB is

Zynaptiq ADAPTIVERB is a reverberation plug-in that adapts its reverb tail to incoming audio or notes selected by the user. It combines ray-tracing and allpass reverb engines with a Harmonic Contour Filter that can follow input tonality, a captured harmonic fingerprint, or on-screen keyboard notes. FREEZE creates drones and pads, while SIMPLIFY and RICHNESS provide oscillator-based timbral and harmonic controls. The plug-in includes more than 400 presets and MIDI control for key parameters. Zynaptiq describes it for mixing, mastering, ambient sound creation, film composition, and sound design. It runs on macOS 10.15 or newer and Windows 10 or newer, in AU, AAX Native, VST 2.4, and VST 3 formats. The perpetual license costs $149, paid once, with a 30-day fully functional trial. Activation requires a free iLok.com account and internet access, unless an iLok 2 dongle is used. Processing can use substantial CPU, and latency can reach 11,264 samples depending on enabled modules.
