Antelope Shimmer Reverb

Runs natively in your DAW on macOS or Windows.

Ethereal, pitch-shifted reverb for cinematic depth and ambient color.

Shimmer is a spacious, ambient reverb plugin designed to elevate your sound with pitch-shifted trails, long evolving decays, and built-in delay and reflection shaping. Inspired by the legendary reverb pioneered by Brian Eno and Daniel Lanois, it’s ideal for creating lush textures, dreamy environments, and immersive soundscapes.

Pitch-Shifting Reverb Engine

Integrates smooth octave-shifted voices into a pristine reverb core, allowing you to create lush, harmonic trails that evolve naturally over time. Perfect for building tonal layers that feel immersive and musically reactive.

Extended Reverb Decay

Offers decay times of up to 30 seconds with detailed diffusion, enabling vast ambient washes or cinematic swells. The decay remains smooth and cohesive—even at extreme settings—making it ideal for ambient and scoring work.

Built-In Delay and Reflections

Shape the sense of space with intuitive delay and early reflection controls. Whether you want tight, reflective rooms or sprawling stereo tails, Shimmer gives you detailed control over depth, placement, and movement.

Customizable Sound Design Tools

Tailor the shimmer effect with flexible pitch-shifter routing and reverb tone shaping. Blend high-frequency lift, time-based modulation, and spatial spread to build everything from subtle textures to massive, layered atmospheres.

Perfect for Ambient and Cinematic Production

Designed for sound designers and artists seeking emotionally rich spatial effects. Shimmer excels at enhancing acoustic instruments, vocals, and synths with otherworldly reverb that feels both expansive and precise in a mix.

Shimmer is part of the Antelope Cosmos plugin collection.
