ReFOLVK

Designed to make an artist's life easier

Ducked reverb usually means a send, a bus, a compressor and a sidechain feeding it. Half an hour of routing before you hear a single decision. ReFOLVK is one plug-in on the channel. Drop it on, turn it up, done.

Why it exists

Same result.
One plug-in.

The usual way

Seven steps. One simple effect. Way too much work.

  1. Create an aux bus and load a reverb
  2. Set up a send from your source track to the reverb
  3. Add an EQ to clean up the reverb tail
  4. Insert a compressor
  5. Route the dry source track into the compressor's sidechain
  6. Dial in threshold, ratio, attack and release until it ducks just right
  7. Repeat the entire setup every time you need the same effect

There's a better way.

With ReFOLVK

One step. Instantly. Same result.

  1. Drop ReFOLVK on your channel or bus and turn it up.

That's it.

The detector, ducking, reverb, delay and four-band EQ are already perfectly wired together inside the plug-in. Save your sound as a preset and bring the same workflow to your next channel in seconds.

One plug-in. One insert. Zero routing.

Easy view ReFOLVK in Easy view: four knobs for reverb, delay, duck and wet level.
Two ways in

Four knobs.
Or forty.
You choose.

Easy Mode keeps it simple with just four essential controls: Reverb. Delay. Duck. Wet. Everything you need to dial in the sound, find the sweet spot and keep creating.

Need more control? Switch to Advanced Mode and unlock 40+ controls for deeper sound shaping, fine-tuning and total control over the effect. Start simple. Go as deep as you want.

Your workflow, your way.

What's inside

Built around
the trigger

ReFOLVK isn't just a reverb with a ducking feature added on top. The trigger is the heart of the plug-in. It controls the effect in real time, keeping your source upfront while the reverb and delay move naturally around it.

01

Trigger Engine

Go beyond simple ducking. Choose Duck, Gate or Inverse, triggered by the internal signal or an external sidechain. Shape the response with threshold, depth, attack, hold, release and lookahead, plus dedicated detector filters to make sure only the frequencies you want are driving the effect.

02

Three Reverb Engines

Three different ways to create space: Hall for natural, spacious rooms. FDN for dense, modern and synthetic tails. Convolution for realistic spaces and your own impulse responses. Deep control over size, decay, pre-delay, damping, modulation, width, diffusion, bass multiplier, crossover and early reflections lets you take the sound anywhere you want.

03

Tempo-Synced Delay

Create everything from tight echoes to wide ping-pong delays, synced to your DAW tempo or freely set in milliseconds. Dedicated low-cut and high-cut keep the repeats clean and controlled — or let them progressively darken for that classic tape-style feel.

04

Shimmer

Add pitch-shifted feedback directly into the effect tail. Choose from +12, +7, +24, −12 or stacked +12/+19 and control the feedback independently. Instead of sitting on top of your reverb, shimmer becomes part of the tail itself.

05

Wet-Path EQ

Shape the effect without touching your source. The four-band EQ works exclusively on the wet signal, with the outer bands switchable between shelf and high/low-pass filters at 12, 24, 36 or 48 dB/octave. Clean up the mud. Shape the highs. Make room for the source.

06

Flexible Routing & Output

Run reverb and delay in parallel, or chain them in either direction. Use Wet Solo to hear and shape the effect in isolation, with independent controls for Mix, Wet Level and Output Trim.

07

Presets & Your Own IRs

Save your sounds as presets and load your own impulse responses. Your presets and IRs live in an accessible folder under Documents, which ReFOLVK can open for you.

Before you buy

Hear the full plugin.
On your own mix.

No watered-down trial. No feature lockouts.

Download the full version of ReFOLVK and put it straight into your DAW. Without a licence, it runs in demo mode — every 20 seconds, the audio briefly mutes for 5 seconds, then fades smoothly back in.

Everything else is fully unlocked. Every reverb engine. Every parameter. Every feature, all presets. And you can load your own impulse responses.

There's no time limit and no sign-up required. Take it into your own sessions. Try it on vocals, synths, drums, guitars, whatever you create. And if you love what it does, purchase a licence.

No pressure. Just hear what ReFOLVK can do.

Turning the demo into the full version

Three steps, once

  1. Buy it. You get an email to choose a password.
  2. Open ReFOLVK in your DAW and sign in with that email address and password.
  3. That is it. The plug-in stores its licence and never contacts us again.

The plug-in then shows Licensed to: your name in the bottom right. The sign-in happens once, on the machine you are activating. From then on it runs entirely offline.

One purchase

Activate once,
then forget us

You sign in the first time you open it, and that is the last the plug-in ever hears from our server. What it keeps is a signed licence on your own machine, so a dead internet connection or a website that is down cannot stop a session.

Your licence runs on one computer at a time. Moving it takes seconds and needs nobody's help: open your account, release the machine you are leaving, sign in on the next one.

Before you buy

Questions

How do I get the plug-in after paying?

Checkout is handled by Paddle. The moment the payment confirms we create your account and email you a link to choose a password, along with a download link. That usually lands within a minute. If it has not arrived after ten, check spam and then mail us. Every order is recoverable.

You then open the plug-in, sign in once, and it activates itself. There is no licence file to keep track of and nothing to copy into a folder.

What exactly does the demo hold back?

Nothing, except silence. Every feature is unlocked: all three reverb engines, the full trigger section, your own impulse responses, presets, the lot. The only difference is that unlicensed, the audio mutes for five seconds once every twenty, dry signal included, with a short fade so it does not read as a crash.

There is no time limit, so you can take as long as you want to decide.

I forgot my password.

Use the forgot-password link on the sign-in page and you will get a fresh one by email. It works once and expires after a day.

There is nothing else to lose. Your purchase lives on your account, not in a file you have to keep safe, so a wiped drive costs you nothing.

Will it run on my Mac?

It needs macOS 11 or later. ReFOLVK is a universal build, so it runs on both Apple Silicon (M1 and newer) and Intel Macs. There is no Windows version yet.

macOS says it is from an unidentified developer.

That is expected right now: the installer is not yet signed with an Apple Developer ID. Right-click the .pkg and choose Open rather than double-clicking it, then confirm. You only have to do it once.

If you install the plug-ins by hand instead of using the installer, clear the quarantine flag macOS puts on downloads with xattr -cr on the copied .vst3 and .component. The read-me in the download spells this out.

Does it phone home while I work?

No. The plug-in talks to us exactly once, when you activate it. It then holds a signed licence on your own machine and verifies that locally, so an offline studio, a plane, or our server being down changes nothing about a session that is already running.

The account is how the licence gets to you, not a second lock on it.

Can I use it on more than one computer?

One at a time. You can install it on as many machines as you like, but the licence is active on one, and you move it yourself: sign in to your account, press Release next to the computer you are leaving, then sign in on the new one. It takes seconds and does not involve us.

That also covers the awkward cases. If a laptop is stolen, dies or gets wiped, you release it from the website rather than from a machine you no longer have.

What about updates?

Every 0.x update is free and your activation carries over. You download the new build from your account and install over the old one, without signing in again. We will say clearly in advance if a future 1.0 is ever a paid upgrade.

Can I get a refund?

Digital goods are delivered immediately, so the statutory EU right of withdrawal is waived at checkout, which is why we are blunt above about what does and does not run. If the plug-in genuinely does not work on a supported machine and we cannot fix it, mail us and you get your money back.
