Golden DSP has announced the release of Silkbrush, an algorithmic reverb plug-in designed to streamline ambient mixing. Silkbrush combines classic Lexicon-style spatial characteristics with built-in intelligent ducking and dynamic frequency carving. This allows the reverb tail to automatically duck behind the dry signal without requiring external sidechain routing.
Engineered from the ground up, the plug-in features a highly optimized DSP architecture with execution times as low as 0.4 ms, making it highly CPU-efficient for dense mix sessions.
Core Features:
- Dynamic Space Engine: Automatically ducks the reverb tail during dry transients and blooms during pauses.
- Frequency Pocketing: Carves out conflicting frequencies dynamically to prevent masking of the lead signal.
- Mid/Side Diffusion: Anchors the center dry signal while pushing high-frequency reflections to the stereo sides.
- Transient Softening: A soft attack mode that applies ambient glue to drum breaks without introducing harsh transients.
- Included Library: Ships with 65 production-ready presets.
Pricing & Availability
Silkbrush is available immediately for Windows and macOS in VST3, AU, and AAX plugin formats. It is currently available for an introductory price of $39.00 (regularly $59.00).
