SunBurnt | SoundShockAudio

SunBurnt is a creative convolution reverb and delay effect from UnplugRed that lets you draw curves to shape the reverb tail over time. Rather than selecting a conventional room and adjusting a few knobs, you can use those curves to make a tail reverse, move across the stereo field, sweep filtering, or rise into a pitched shimmer.

The plugin is especially suited to textural effects, because reducing its density moves it away from a smooth wash and toward more chaotic, broken-up results. Turning density all the way down changes the behavior into multi-tap delay mode, giving sound designers a second way to build rhythmic space from the same interface.

SunBurnt can also be tempo-synced by holding Ctrl while adjusting its length control, which makes deliberate reverb-and-delay gestures easier to place in a track. Its convolution processing is relatively demanding, so larger audio buffers are the sensible starting point if a busy session starts to strain.

UnplugRed offers the full free version through its dedicated creator-controlled download page, with a non-intrusive visual banner; the paid Patreon option removes that banner. Current builds support 64-bit VST3, Audio Unit, and CLAP hosts on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
