LiquidSonics has updated Reverberate to version 1.220. This is the first full non-beta release for Mac OS X.

Reverberate seeks to provide a richer and more dynamic sounding reverb from impulse responses by optionally modulating an amalgamation of two, separately controllable IRs using an LFO. Further modulation is possible using the post-processing effects; an all-pass interpolator chorus provides a fuller sound and an over-sampled analogue prototype paragraphic equaliser is provided with dual LFOs.

• Dual IR for true-stereo capability.
• IR mix modulation capability using an LFO.
• Zero latency (or select up to 8192 ...
