INSPIRED ACOUST | INSPIRATA Reverb Based-measurement Plug-in INSPIRED ACOUST

INSPIRATA

WE WON’T SAY IT’S THE BEST REVERB OF THE KNOWN UNIVERS

What is INSPIRATA?

INSPIRATA™ is a unique measurement-based reverb workstation providing you with total acoustic freedom. Choose from a wide variety of real acoustic spaces, and position your sound sources and the virtual microphone just as if you were there.

Total acoustic freedom

Creating a shockingly realistic sense of space and depth is what INSPIRATA was designed for. Just as if you were in the real space itself. With INSPIRATA you are able to:

• Move, position and automate multiple sound sources and the virtual microphone in a real acoustic space
• Freely adjust the directivity of the virtual microphone setup from Omnidirectional to Figure of 8
• Adjust real acoustic parameters such as apparent source sound width (ASW), listener envelopment (LEV) or sound clarity (C80).
  

  

World-renown spaces

INSPIRATA contains a massive room library with measurement data captured in an unprecedented spatial detail and resolution. Choose from a wide variety of spaces including:

• Iconic performance venues with precisely designed acoustic characteristics
• Places of worship with long and lush reverb tails
• Post-production spaces with extraordinary acoustics
• Ordinary domestic spaces with simple and natural acoustics

and much more.

Made by acousticians

INSPIRATA is the culmination of many years of research and development by acoustic consultants. Our goal was to:

• Create a shockingly realistic and immersive sound experience
• Make all sampled acoustic spaces accessible to INSPIRATA users, even spaces where recording is limited or problematic.
• Provide the possibility to adjust those acoustic parameters that truly matter to our ears, the parameters that are used when designing a real performance space
• Create a room library with the highest quality standard and spatial resolution, all based on true measurements.
  

  

3D immersive audio support

INSPIRATA supports surround configurations by design, it is a key feature of the workstation. With INSPIRATA you can:

• Upmix your mono or stereo mix to a wide variety of 3D surround configurations.
• Apply reverberation to your surround audio or multi-channel audio material
• Choose from a wide variety of surround output options up to 22.2, including Dolby Atmos®.

(Available output surround configurations vary between different Editions of INSPIRATA and depend on DAW support.)
