Quartz Reverb Max for Live Audio Device

Every producer knows that moment when reverb either transforms a track or drowns it. You're chasing that perfect balance, enough space to create depth, but not so much that you lose definition. Standard plugin reverbs either sound digital and harsh or eat your CPU whilst offering cryptic controls that feel disconnected from the sonic result. You need reverb that integrates seamlessly with Ableton, responds predictably to your adjustments, and maintains clarity even when pushed to extremes.

Quartz Reverb is built around Max 9's algorithmic reverb engine from Live's Hybrid Reverb, providing the same professional grade processing with enhanced hands on control. Both Standard and Pro editions give you independent low and high damping controls working through a sophisticated diffusion circuit, this means you can shape everything from tight, focused room ambience to vast, characterful halls whilst maintaining musical clarity. Dial in subtle plate style reflections or infinite ambient textures with surgical precision. Because it's built natively in Max for Live, every parameter maps perfectly to Ableton's automation system without the interface compromises of third party plugins.

Pro edition builds on this foundation with visual feedback that reveals exactly what's happening to your signal. The interactive frequency display shows your EQ curve with draggable control points (double click to reset), use modifier keys for precision Q control, whilst real-time spectrum analysis displays both wet and dry signals simultaneously. The integrated 3 band EQ and stereo width control sit post-reverb in the signal chain, giving you complete spatial processing in a single device without bouncing between plugins or cluttering your chain. Whether you choose Standard or Pro, you're getting Ableton-native reverb that removes creative friction whilst delivering the spatial depth and character your productions demand.

Professional Max for Live Design

All devices built with optimised CPU performance, bulletproof stability, and intuitive interfaces tested by working producers for reliable session performance.

Seamless Ableton Integration

Every device integrates natively into Ableton Live with full automation support, preset management, and zero plugin-bridging latency for frictionless workflow.

Clear Commercial Licensing

All Max for Live devices supplied with straightforward commercial licenses—use them in your productions and client work with complete confidence.

Professional Reverb Processing for Ableton Producers Standard and Pro Editions

Whether you choose Standard or Pro edition, Quartz Reverb integrates seamlessly into your Ableton workflow with native automation mapping, instant recall alongside your project, and CPU-efficient processing that won't slow your creative flow. Built specifically for Max for Live, it eliminates the interface compromises and compatibility uncertainties of third-party plugins whilst delivering professional studio-grade reverb quality in every session.

Crystal Clear Algorithmic Reverb Engine [Standard + Pro]

Both Standard and Pro editions deliver the full Quartz reverb algorithm with independent low and high damping controls working through a sophisticated diffusion circuit, giving you precise command over tail density and tonal character from bright, shimmering spaces to dark, intimate chambers. Decay times from 0.1 seconds to "freeze "enable everything from subtle room reflections to infinite ambient sustain whilst maintaining exceptional clarity.

Visual Feedback and Integrated Processing Chain [Pro Edition]

Pro edition users gain real time visual feedback through an interactive frequency display with draggable EQ control points, spectrum analysis showing both wet and dry signals, and integrated post reverb processing including 3 band EQ and stereo width control. This all in one design eliminates plugin hopping and gives you complete spatial processing control within a single, cohesive interface optimised for fast creative decisions.

Ableton-Native Reliability Across Both Editions

Both editions are built with Max 9's proven DSP architecture, ensuring rock-solid stability, efficient CPU performance, and perfect integration with Ableton's automation system. Standard and Pro alike deliver consistent, professional results whether you're tracking ideas, mixing client projects, or performing live no compatibility issues, no workflow interruptions, just dependable spatial processing when you need it.

Hands-On Control That Responds Like Hardware [Standard + Pro]

Both Standard and Pro editions present an intuitive interface designed for immediate creative results, all essential reverb parameters are visible simultaneously with clear labelling and logical grouping that mirrors your thought process whilst shaping space. The control layout eliminates menu diving, letting you adjust decay, damping, diffusion, and modulation parameters with the same directness as classic hardware reverb units.

Real-time parameter response ensures every adjustment translates immediately to your mix without latency or processing artifacts. The damping controls work interactively with the diffusion circuit, giving you tactile feedback as you shape your reverb character—twist low damping for brightness, adjust high damping for darkness, and watch how diffusion density transforms the tail texture as you move between sparse early reflections and lush, dense ambience.

Which edition is right for you?

→ Choose STANDARD if: You want professional algorithmic reverb control powered by proven Max architecture, prefer to use external processing tools for EQ and width, value minimal CPU overhead and interface simplicity, or want focused core functionality without visual feedback systems.

→ Choose PRO if: You value integrated visual feedback showing exactly what's happening to your signal, want all-in-one processing without external plugins cluttering your chain, need rapid mix decisions enabled by real-time spectrum analysis, or require the most comprehensive spatial processing solution for client work and deadline-driven projects.

Pro Edition: See Your Sound, Shape with Precision [Pro Edition]

Pro edition users see exactly what's happening through custom visual feedback systems. The interactive frequency display reveals your EQ curve with draggable control points, grab a handle to adjust frequency and gain, use modifier keys to fine-tune Q values, or double-click to reset individual bands. Filter toggles instantly show or hide high-pass, peak, and low-pass sections, giving you surgical control over which frequencies enter or exit your reverb tail.

Real-time spectrum analysis displays both wet and dry signals simultaneously, revealing how your reverb sits within the frequency spectrum and making mix decisions faster and more confident. The integrated stereo width control works post-EQ in the signal chain, letting you expand mono sources into wide stereo fields or tighten stereo signals for focused placement—all whilst watching visual feedback confirm your adjustments are delivering the spatial positioning your mix demands.
