True Stereo Convolution

Fog Convolver 2 is a true stereo convolution reverb/processor plugin. This new version has been rewritten and redesigned from scratch, and now features modulation, effects, a space simulator, an impulse response generator, and a lot of improvements and new features.

You can now load 2 separate impulse responses (or one true stereo/quad channel impulse response) and have separate or linked controls for both. There are 5 different routing modes to arrange the impulses: single, serial, parallel, parallel mix, and true stereo.
Each impulse can have 2 LFOs, with 10 waveforms and 18 destinations, one dedicated multi-mode filter (with pre, IR, or post modes), and a 5-band graphic EQ.

Fog Convolver features 9 factory banks with more than 710 impulse responses made from spaces, analog and digital equipment, organic sources, handmade devices, and more.

Easy Drag and Drop

You can easily load any audio file (WAV or AIFF) into Fog Convolver with a simple Drag and Drop, or by using the built-in browser. If you drag two files, they will be assigned to IR1 and IR2.

True Stereo

There are several modes to combine one or two impulse responses in Fog Convolver 2: Single, Serial, Parallel, Parallel Mix, and True Stereo.
True Stereo impulses are usually recorded simultaneously to capture a better stereo image, but you can also use two unrelated IRs to create experimental stereo reverbs.

Space Simulator

With the Space Simulator you can create impulse responses of virtual rooms. You can change dimensions, manually place the source and listener, and experiment with combinations of materials on each of your six walls to simulate architectural acoustics.

Impulse Generator

As an alternative to the Space Simulator, you can use the built-in impulse response generator to create your own artificial spaces, with a more synth-like approach. Select the parameters for the early and late reflections, choose a filter sweep, and add equalization on the final impulse.

9 Banks

Craft Spaces
Reverbs of all kinds, from real acoustic spaces and rooms to early digital effect processors, including noise sources from vintage synths.

211 Impulses

DIY
A collection of custom-built spring and plate reverbs, resonators, and a variety of hand-made acoustic reverberators and delays.

43 Impulses

OpenAIR
A selection of impulse responses from the OpenAIR database, including Churches, Halls, Chambers, and an old Nuclear Reactor.

83 Impulses

Organic Compounds
Structures were detected using Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to obtain physical, chemical, electronic, and structural information about molecules.

45 Impulses

Polarity
Custom impulse responses made by “Bitwig Guru” Polarity using white noise, Dirac samples, granulators, and many many modulations.

67 Impulses

Test Equipment
Noise, glitch, and tone impulse responses made using only test equipment (Hainbach style!).

45 Impulses

Unusual
As the name implies, all kinds of objects, instruments, electronics, and organic samples used to create spaces, echoes, drones, and unique tones.

120 Impulses

Vintage Mics
Impulse responses of vintage microphones from 20 manufacturers. Mostly ribbon microphones from the 30s to the 70s.

65 Impulses

Old Times
Impulse responses from old public domain recordings divided into 4 categories: 78 RPM, NASA, Radio, and Wax Cylinders. Most of the samples come from the Internet Archive.

40 Impulses

How does Convolution work?

Convolution works by applying the sonic character of an impulse response to another sound in real-time. You can use Fog Convolver to add reverberation, create special effects, and apply an acoustic impulse captured from audio equipment.

An impulse response is a recording of the output that is caused by an acoustic space or electronic gear when an impulse is played (electric spark, starter pistol shot, boards clap, or the bursting of a balloon).
