This true convolution reverb marries the authenticity of real spaces with the adaptability of algorithmic reverb, offering a seamless blend of tradition and innovation. Built for today's audio professionals, Paragon provides an unmatched level of control over decay, room size, and brightness, all without the artifacts typically associated with time-stretching.

Paragon stands out with its ability to synthesize new reverberant spaces from 3D Impulse Responses, thanks to advanced technology developed in collaboration with the University of York.

Whether you're working with mono, stereo, or immersive audio tracks, Paragon’s adjustable crosstalk and spectral EQ capabilities provide the flexibility needed to enhance audio clarity and spatial depth. By allowing you to fine-tune the EQ of the reverb model itself, Paragon offers a degree of precision that empowers you to transform the auditory space without compromising the integrity of the original sound.
