Strymon has introduced StarLab Time-Warped Reverberator, a modular reverb effect in Eurorack format.

The module can create lush reverbs; add chorus, flanging and modulated delays; act as a synth voice with Karplus-Strong string synthesis; and more.

Features:

• Three selectable reverb types for a wide variety of ambient textures
• DELAY/KARPLUS section with feedback
• Delay assignable to output for mod/verb and delay/verb effects
• Four-octave Karplus-Strong string synthesis mode with damping control for string/verb full voice capability
• LFO section with various waveforms to modulate delay time, reverb size, or tone filters
• FILTER section to sculpt the high and low EQ of the reverb and DELAY/KARPLUS section
• HARMONICS section to enhance the aural spectrum of the reverb
• Adjustable SHIMMER for adding pitch shifting of up to +/- 1 octave to the reverb
• GLIMMER for dynamic enhancement of harmonics
• Adjustable reverb core size to increase or decrease the space for reflections, allowing for pitch control of the
• regenerating reverb content
• 4-pole 24dB/octave variable resonance low pass filter
• INFINITE freezes the input audio prior to the reverb tank
• Independent WET and DRY level controls

Here’s an in-depth demo from sound designer Pete Celi:
