Electronic Audio Experiments Scattering Stereo Reverb

Scattering is a stereo reverb built around a complex network of delay lines.

Forsaking the diffuse atmospherics of traditional digital reverb, instead it creates a lively dance of fluttering echoes strewn into space.  Here the boundary between analog and digital is thin. The core timbre can be harsh and ringing, or murky and saturated. Four modes, each representing permutations of the lost MN3011 bucket brigade device, offer branching paths into proto-algorthmic realms.

Within, you can find all manner of textural reflections. But, far from just an ambient effect, Scattering is able to saturate, modulate, and spatialize with an immediacy worthy of rock-and-roll practicality. 
Building upon EAE's analog/digital hybrid ecosystem, Scattering has a deep interface with presets, MIDI, assignable modulation, and extensive expressive control over all parameters. The I/O and analog/digital processing are true stereo—a first within their catalog.

Reverb gives our music a sense of space. We hope Scattering is a fun one to explore.

Features:

• Full stereo I/O

• Analog/digital hybrid signal processing (24 bit, variable sample rate) paired with analog filtering and emphasis, for low noise with a colorful character

• High headroom analog dry path and mixer

• Comprehensive digital control of every function using a 32-bit processor system that seamlessly integrates with the analog signal path.

• Performance-friendly expression morphing functionality with intelligent momentary/latching behavior and adjustable rise/fall times

• Full MIDI implementation (CCs and presets) for all parameters, analog and digital

• 16 preset slots: 3 via the front panel, the rest via MIDI

• CTRL jack for MIDI, CV, or expression signals

• Multi-mode LFO that is assignable to any of the main front panel controls

• Updatable firmware via MIDI Sysex messages
