The world below you fades into the distance, and you’re elevated into a glow of lush, glorious, radiant reverbs.</p> <p>To create a reverb experience as natural, beautiful, and immersive as BigSky required tremendous feats of sound engineering and artistic imagination. Using the fundamentals of acoustical science as our beacon, we carefully studied and scientifically analyzed reverb technology from the past fifty years. We faithfully captured the essence of these classic sounds, and forged ahead to dream up our vision of reverbs from the future.</p> <div class="elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-5a9a5fab" data-id="5a9a5fab" data-element_type="column"> <div class="elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated"> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-2dca92d elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading" data-id="2dca92d" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="heading.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <h2 class="elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default">Go where no reverb has gone before.</h2> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-d73e42c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor" data-id="d73e42c" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="text-editor.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <p>Feel the mechanical tension of the Spring reverbs.
