See how long different frequencies ring. Move the crossovers to change the low and high decay, then use the probe to read reverb time at any frequency.

The display
Shape the decay by frequency.
The violet field plots decay time against frequency. Two crossover handles divide the spectrum, so you can lengthen the lows or damp the highs where the source needs it.
Hover the field to read the measured reverb time at that frequency, such as RT60 2.40 s @ 1 kHz.
- Decay time drawn against frequency, as one continuous field
- Two crossover handles with live Hz readouts
- RT60 probe at any frequency you point at
- Center-zero correlation meter on the rail
Listen
Hear the decay change.
A dry snare and a short piano phrase, each run through three Starveil settings. Switch while it plays. The sound keeps its place, and the picture shows how long each part of the spectrum rings.
Rendered offline through the Starveil 0.2.0 engineering-test build, not a browser effect. Every version of a source is matched to the same loudness, so you hear the space rather than a jump in volume. With the panel focused, Space plays or pauses and 1 to 4 switch settings. Esc stops.
Snare: Frankensnare by Karoryfer Samples (CC0). Piano notes: University of Iowa Electronic Music Studios. The piano phrase and the renders are ours.

Can I hear it before the trial?
Yes. The listening room above plays a snare and a piano phrase, dry and through three Starveil settings, rendered by the plugin itself.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. 30 days with every feature on, and no email, account or card. When the trial ends, the plugins keep playing your sessions and everything you saved still opens. A license unlocks saving new changes.
Do I need iLok or an account?
No. Your license is a short code checked on your Mac. No dongle, no activation server, and it works offline for good.
Which hosts does it work in?
Any Mac host that loads AUv2 or VST3 plugins, plus a standalone app. There’s no AAX version yet, so not Pro Tools.
