Klevgrand – Revolv for WiN

Revolv is a unique reverb plugin unlike any other, drawn directly from our cultural and sonic heritage. Whether you place your mix in a quiet forest, ancient ruins or a hot sauna, Revolv’s impulse responses capture the unique atmosphere of each location. Explore historically and acoustically unique locations like Gotland’s medieval ruins or Uppsala Cathedral, meticulously recorded to give your audio a sense of depth and authenticity that sets it apart.

A Labor of Love (and Obsession)

At the heart of Revolv is a dedication to our close friend and sound designer Oskar Björk, who embarked on an epic journey across Sweden in a project called Echoes of Our Time, capturing unique acoustic fingerprints of a variety of hand-picked locations. His passion for preserving the soul and sound of these places has resulted in an extraordinary collection of impulse responses, each a testament to his painstaking efforts and deep appreciation for Sweden’s acoustic heritage.

Time and Space Wheels

Revolv features an innovative design that revolves around “location wheels” and a magnifying glass selector. Simply move the selector around the wheels to change the location and sound. Each location also offers a detailed view where you can learn more about the location and adjust the fade, pre-delay, and width, as well as adjust microphone preferences and recording distance. There are six wheels available, each representing a group of locations, from rare and unusual to epic venues.

No AI, just pure acoustics

Convolution reverb mixes your sound with the impulse response (IR) of a real acoustic space. Revolv simplifies this complex process by offering a user-friendly interface and a wide range of authentic environments.

Revolv’s impulse responses are recorded and processed by hand (no AI involved). Each IR is an authentic audio snapshot of the natural acoustics of a space, ensuring that the reverb you add to your recordings is as real and rich as the location itself. This authenticity makes Revolv an invaluable tool for musicians, sound designers, and sound designers, especially in fields like film and video game sound design, where convincingly reproducing a space is key. Each location has a unique acoustic character, and the variety allows for a variety of creative ideas.

While convolution reverbs are resource-intensive, Revolv is designed to work efficiently without sacrificing quality.
