1. About

name: phonocamptica 2species: virtuos reverbquantity: over 40works in : acustica audio nebula

Introduction:

TThis library is the continuation of our successful virtous reverb library called: phonocamptica.

Both libraries complement each other perfectly. It will give you a big pallete of different reverbs to choose from.

It's name is derived from the works & studies of Athanasius Kircher, who was a scholar of the 17th-century and has written about music and acoustic.

One of his titles is called: "Musurgia Universalis" (1650). In this specific title he is eexperimenting how sound reflects. With "Magia Phonocamptica, sive de Echo", Kircher has developed regularities in how sound reflects. Because of his works and studies, this library is dedicated to Kircher and his studies.

With more than 40 different reverb-programs, we have build a universal library for nearly every task where a reverb is useful, be it for movies & soundtracks, intruments, vocals or

sound design. All the reverbs are derived from two of the most famous reverb-machines out of denmark. What makes it very special is the fact, that we have tweaked every single pprogram until we were satisfied by our own.

We hope you'll like it!
