{"product_id":"relab-q82","title":"Relab - Q82 Natural Resonance Reverb","description":"\u003cp\u003eQ82 is Relab's recreation of the Quantec QRS, the early-80s German room simulator prized for its very realistic ambience and long, natural decays. Version 2.0 makes it a dual-engine reverb, for mixers and film engineers who want depth that sounds like a real space rather than an effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eResonance, not just reflections\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost reverbs model how long sound takes to bounce around. The QRS approach is frequency-based, using resonators to imitate how a real room behaves, and that's where its natural, enveloping quality comes from. Relab used machine-learning analysis of the hardware to capture not only its sound but its changing, slightly unpredictable character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo engines, two units\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ82 combines two reverb systems, each with four outputs, so you can set width and front-to-back depth separately in real time. There are two algorithms: a pristine, factory-spec German unit and a characterful, time-worn US unit, so you can pick between cold precision and an aged, richer tone. Enhance mode builds a three-dimensional space with very little audible reverb, which is great for adding depth without wash.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eModulation and control\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRelab's eight-voice ACE modulation adds subtle movement to the tail, and bandwidth control runs from 4kHz to 16kHz with a resonant curve calculated from the original hardware's limits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe sound\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ82 is dark, deep and real. It's superb on orchestral and acoustic sources, ballads and anything that needs to sound like it was recorded in a room. It's less flashy than a 480-style plate, and not the one for bright pop vocals; that's \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sound7.com\/products\/relab-lx480-dual-engine-reverb-v4\"\u003eLX480\u003c\/a\u003e territory.
