MNTRA Instruments has introduced a limited-time discount on its experimental BOREALIS reverb plugin, now available for $59, down from $99 until April 9. Designed as a performance-driven spatial processor, BOREALIS moves beyond traditional reverb by enabling dynamic interaction between dry input and processed output.
At the core of the plugin is an envelope follower and advanced modulation system, allowing the reverb to react in real time to incoming audio. This creates an evolving interplay between signal and space, making it particularly suited for expressive sound design, live performance, and ambient production.
BOREALIS features 14 unique algorithms that span conventional and experimental territories. These include convolution-based spaces, granular reverbs, and evolving ambient effects such as Cavern, Freeze, Endless, and Church. The plugin draws inspiration from guitar pedals and Eurorack systems, offering both familiar and unconventional textures that can extend into expansive, atmospheric soundscapes.
The interface is built around intuitive three-axis macro controls, enabling users to manipulate multiple parameters simultaneously for fluid, performative control. For deeper customization, BOREALIS includes three modulators with multiple waveform options and an advanced routing system, allowing modulation sources to interact with each other and the input signal.
A built-in mastering section further enhances usability, featuring a parametric EQ and dual-mode limiter, including both transparent look-ahead and vintage-style compression. This allows users to shape and finalize the blend between dry and wet signals directly within the plugin.
With its focus on interactivity, modulation, and sound design flexibility, BOREALIS stands out as a creative reverb tool. The current discount makes it an attractive option for producers looking to explore more experimental approaches to spatial processing.
