In this video, Strymon cofounder and senior DSP engineer Pete Celi takes you on an indepth tour of Strymon's latest Eurorack module: StarLab TimeWarped Reverberator.

=======================

Modular Transformation Machine.

Expand the sound of your modular rack with incredibly lush, ethereal reverbs. Enhance signals with gorgeous chorus, flanging, and modulated delays. Create uniquely expressive synth voices with KarplusStrong string synthesis. Turn simple mono audio signals into vast stereo soundscapes. StarLab is a single module that will completely transform your modular rack.

Singular Modular Reverb.

From perfectly voiced room ambience to vast, immersive, nearly infinite decays, StarLab offers the pinnacle of premium reverb sounds with unparalleled depth and spaciousness. Add musical intervals to the reverb signal with Shimmer, and enhance the harmonic spectrum with Glimmer, while enjoying realtime control over the size/pitch of the reverb process.

Modulation And Delay Effects.

StarLab has vastly expanded what reverb predelay can do by allowing you to bus the predelay signal to the output while making the predelay time a modulation target. This results in the ability to create rich choruses, sweeping flanger effects, and beautiful modulated delays, while also processing signal through the reverb.

KarplusStrong String Synthesis.

In addition to input signal processing, StarLab is a powerful KarplusStrong string synthesis voice module that allows freely alternating bowing and plucking as well as dynamic string damping. This results in an astoundingly expressive and lifelike instrument with a unique voice all its own, which can be enhanced and expanded by the full range of StarLab’s reverb capabilities.
