This can go unstable, but the original Eno/Lanois patch ran that risk anyway. The best bet would be to use a pitch shifter without feedback running into a reverb, run one of the outputs into a mixer, and then feed the output of the mixer channel into one of the SE-70 inputs. Running a pitch shifter with feedback into a reverb is a simple way of faking the shimmer sound, but it won’t be the same.
#Valhalla shimmer reverb code#
For the most part, I prefer to code my own effects nowadays, and don’t use much rack gear anymore (stomp boxes are a different story). I have an SE-50, but it is in a box somewhere. Set the modDepth control to a fairly low value at first, as the pitch shifting provides its own random modulation to the signal.
This produces a natural roll-off of high frequencies, which eliminates almost all of the aliasing noise in the feedback path of the pitch shifter. The singleReverse and dualReverse pitch shift modes are much smoother, and are better for organ-esque sounds.This is better for emulating the orchestral sounds as heard in “Deep Blue Day.” The single and dual pitch shift modes have more noisiness in their decay.The different pitch shift modes have different levels of “smoothness”:.If you set Diffusion < 0.5, it will sound closer to a pitch shifted echo, which is another cool sound. Diffusion works best at around 0.9 for reverberant sounds.The Pitch control should be at +12 semitones.Set the Feedback control for the desired amount of pitch shift in the output signal, and then use the Size control to dial in the decay.The mono reverb mode will have a stronger sense of pitch shifting in the feedback signal, while the other modes have a gentler onset of the pitch shifting. Use the mediumStereo or bigStereo reverb modes for the smoothest shimmer sounds.There are a few presets that ship with ValhallaShimmer which reproduce this effect, but if you want to dial in your own version, here’s some tips: The “Shimmer” in the title refers to the classic shimmer effect, as used by U2, Brian Eno, Daniel Lanois, Coldplay, etc. Twelve original algorithms emulate the sound and behavior of real world steel plate reverbs, and take the sound into dimensions that physical plates can’t touch.ValhallaShimmer was designed to get a variety of big reverb sounds, with the option of adding pitch shifted feedback to the decay. ValhallaPlate is our algorithmic take on the classic plate reverberation sound. Instead of creating a simplified physical model of a simplified physical space, Room generates early and late acoustic energy that provides the spatial and phase cues needed to create an “idealized” room impression. ValhallaRoom has been designed from a psychoacoustic perspective. The algorithm designs have been influenced by some of the “classic” room simulation boxes, as well as state of the art modern theory. Sounds range from tight ambiences and rooms, through traditional hall and plate sounds, all the way up to vast modulated spaces. It features twelve original reverberation algorithms (including the latest Dark reverb modes, Nostromo, Narcissus, Sulaco and LV-426), and produces a wide range of natural reverberation sounds.
ValhallaRoom is a versatile, true stereo algorithmic reverb.
