KResearch KR-Space

Modular Reverb & Echo Based Multi FX

KR-Space is a modular reverb-echoes based multi-effect plug-in which can produce a multitude of different types of effects, from traditional echoes and reverbs, to very complex soundscapes, modulation and filtering effects, resonating echoes and reflections, saturation effects, and other types of effects which are not available on any commercially available plug-in of this type.

KR-Space is a modular reverb-echoes based multi-effect plug-in which can produce a multitude of different types of effects, from traditional echoes and reverbs, to very complex soundscapes, modulation and filtering effects, resonating echoes and reflections, saturation effects, and other types of effects which are not available on any commercially available plug-in of this type.

To achieve this wide range of effect creation KR-Space uses a proprietary design and a flexible modular architecture where the different available modules can be switched on and off or routed in various combinations allowing more flexibility in effect design. The modular architecture also allows more efficient CPU utilization since only the modules that are switched on contribute to the CPU overhead.

KR-Space introduces the Animated Object Space Emulator (AOSE) where the user has control over a number of spherical objects which are placed in our virtual environment and affect the sound output in a multitude of ways. These objects have various user-controlled characteristics like size, resonance, oscillation frequency, reflection characteristics, and can be animated (move) in our virtual environment affecting the total sound output.

Additionally to the proprietary AOSE, the main reverberation engine features separate damping controls for early and late reflections allowing more detail filtering control and thus expanding the total range of available effects and also introduces our Asymmetric Reflection Scheme for more realistic reverb and echoes creation.
