BOREALIS is a dynamic reverb plugin designed for the studio, stage, and beyond. It transcends conventional reverb plugins by allowing you to create an interplay between your dry input and its wet output, using its envelope follower and unique modulation possibilities. BOREALIS allows you to manipulate a myriad of parameters simultaneously for expressive results with a user-friendly animated interface with 3-axes macro controls.
Introducing BOREALIS, the first FX plugin from MNTRA, designed as a new take on reverb with its unique approach as an ‘Animistic Performance Reverb’. BOREALIS stands apart from conventional reverbs by dynamically responding to your playing, fostering an inspiring dialogue between input and output. The plugin features a user-friendly interface with the X, Y & Z Perform Animations as its main control screen, allowing you to focus on what you’re hearing. But for the tweakers, under the surface a playground of deep and intricate control lets you build your dream performance effect. BOREALIS offers an array of 14 unique reverb algorithms, from lush convolution reverbs sampled from epic spaces to shimmering algorithmic reverbs and vintage diffused delays. The plugin’s extensive modulation capabilities, including complex non-linear modulators and a deep envelope follower, enable access to highly responsive and organic results. We have also included a mastering section in BOREALIS that allows you to shape both dry and wet signals, fine-tune your sound and makes it an essential tool to inspire and transform your musical creative process. Inspired by the boundary-pushing world of guitar pedals and Eurorack effects, BOREALIS offers a wide variety of inspiring time-based effects through its 14 algorithms, including multi-dimensional convolution reverbs sampled in epic and unusual spaces from a lush church to the inside of a piano, shimmering reactive algorithmic reverbs that go to infinity, and vintage modulated delay networks. At the heart of BOREALIS is its nonlinear control system. Influenced by video game audio engines and the natural world, this system allows you to perform a vast ecosystem of parameters dynamically - controlled by your input signal, a deep modulation network, and the 3 control axes. BOREALIS's modulation capabilities are extensive, featuring three modulators and an envelope follower. The modulators, including Sine, Triangle, Square, Random, Stepped and custom-drawn shapes, allow you to create intricate movement. The envelope follower derives control signals from your input, allowing for responsive performances with adjustable attack, release, gain, and threshold settings. Like a living, breathing organism, BOREALIS empowers you to go deeper, allowing you to modulate modulators with each other and with the envelope follower, creating a network of performable sound. As the cherry on top, BOREALIS also includes a powerful mastering section with a parametric equalizer and dual-mode modern and vintage-flavoured limiter. The Modern limiter offers transparent IIR look-ahead limiting, while the Vintage limiter emulates the classic 1176 Peak Limiter. This section lets you shape and ‘glue’ both dry and wet signals, perfecting your overall sound. With BOREALIS, we created a playground to inspire and enhance your creative process and transform your approach to reverb design with its expansive sound, advanced modulators, and inspiring control interface.
