Nembrini Audio 'Shimmer Delay Ambient Machine': A Plug-in that combines Reverb, Pitch Shifting, and Feedback to create Out-of-this-world Soundscapes and Spaces
The Italian analog saturation circuits digital reproduction specialist Nembrini Audio has recently released 'Shimmer Delay Ambient Machine' — Based on creative techniques developed by studio engineers and producers in the early 1980s, combines reverb, pitch shifting, and feedback to create out-of-this-world soundscapes and spaces. Great for guitars, keys, synths, samples, and vocals, 'Shimmer Delay Ambient Machine' promotes getting lost in creative production and electronic music facets of the ambient spectrum.
Prominently popularized by British musician Brian Eno — effectively responsible for naming the genre itself with his 1978-released Ambient 1: Music For Airports album (comprising compositions created by layering tape loops of differing lengths, designed to be continuously looped as a sound installation with the intent of defusing the tense, anxious atmosphere of an airport), ambient music is typically thought of as a style of gentle, largely electronic instrumental music with no persistent beat, used to create or enhance a mood or atmosphere. No need (necessarily) to go anywhere near an airport terminal to work with Nembrini Audio’s self-styled ambient machine, although it is perfectly possible to achieve a truly ambient atmosphere almost anywhere since Shimmer Delay Ambient Machine is also available in an iOS-friendly form on the App Store.
No need (necessarily) to work without beats when working with 'Shimmer Delay Ambient Machine'. After all, the plug-in promotes getting lost in the creative production and electronic music facets of the ambient spectrum, drawing deeply from creative techniques developed by early-Eighties studio engineers. Equally adept at working with guitars, keyboards, synthesisers, and vocals, it combines reverb, pitch shifting, and feedback to create out-of-this-world soundscapes and spaces via an easy-to-use interface implemented as an equally easy-on-the-eye experience, emphasising user control and playability. Indeed, it is designed to be tweaked in real-time with no-nonsense controls clearly guiding the way with some self-explanatory sections acting as their helpful home — namely, IN (input level metering); SWELL (auto-volume swell commonly used with electric guitar, similar to the sound of a violin being bowed); DELAY (main delay); down OCTAVE (manages a down octave); SHIMMER (manages the shimmer effect); DRY/WET (manages the dry/wet signal blend); and OUT (output level metering). Moreover, all controls have a smoothed response to avoid clicks when changing settings or applying automation, while the highly-optimized main delay algorithm allows anyone to achieve huge delay sounds without straining their CPU.
(Introductory price until May 3, 2021 — rising thereafter to a regular price of $79.00 USD.)

Nembrini Audio was borne out of the extensive experience of founding namesake Igor Nembrini, with over 10 years of involvement in creating many of the greatest guitar amp plug-ins on the market to his notable name. Needless to say, the company’s exacting emulations always start by perfecting digital reproduction of analogue circuits before being finely tuned by ear to remain true to the original sound. Saying that, it is specialised in the digital reproduction of analogue saturation circuits, whereby the dynamic behaviour of each individual component is carefully modelled and tuned by ear to always achieve the most musical and creamy saturation in the digital world! With that in mind, it does not simply produce musical software but rather musical instruments suitable for every modern musician in search of uncompromising quality — products that work well in any setting and situation to let the creativity of musicians, producers, and mixing engineers flow forth for all to hear!
