Timo Rozendal Verb Eurorack Stereo Reverb Module

Manufacturer's description

VERB is a stereo reverb for Eurorack with eight distinct reverb modes, five controls, and one CV input.

Each mode is a different reverb topology rather than a different preset on one engine — the networks themselves are built differently, so a mode change rebuilds the reverb rather than re-tuning it. That is why switching modes takes about half a second and fades rather than cuts.

The five controls are deliberately few. Send decides how hard the reverb is driven, Size sets the space, Damp sets how fast the high end dies away, Filter shapes the tail with a single bipolar tilt, and Mix blends against the dry input. Everything else — diffusion, modulation rate and depth, stereo width, tail wobble — is fixed per mode, chosen by ear for that mode, and not on the panel.

The eight modes run from the smallest space to the largest, in panel order. Modes 1 and 2 are small rooms, 3 to 5 are chambers and rooms, 6 and 7 are halls, and 8 is a long plate. They are level-matched to each other, so cycling through them does not jump in volume.

VERB works on everything, but the small modes reward percussive and close material and the large modes reward sustained sources.
