Captured Acoustics

Atlantis Dual Chambers recreates the unique reverb chambers of Atlantis Studios in Stockholm, the birthplace of ABBA and a recording destination for many hitmakers. The chambers were built with odd angles and hard walls, producing bright, airy echoes and relatively long decay times. This plug-in captures those detailed reflections, bringing the studio’s signature sound to your mixes.

Created in collaboration with Atlantis Studios and officially licensed, the plug-in models two chambers, allowing you to use them together or separately. The result is a balance of acoustics and ambiance, offering a reverent yet practical tool for music production.

Flexible Controls

Beyond the captured acoustics, the plug-in includes intuitive parameters for tailoring the reverb. You can select and adjust four microphone types—modern cardioid, ribbon figure eight, vintage tube cardioid, and vintage dynamic omni—as well as tweak positions, speakers, and damping. This flexibility lets you shape the sound from subtle to expansive without leaving your session.

Damping controls include both mechanical and algorithmic options, while reverb time is adjustable via decay, predelay, and mic distance. For further shaping, the plug-in offers resonance control, British-style filters and EQ, and a dynamics section with compression, ducking, and gating. These tools make it easy to sculpt the reverb to fit any track.

Workflow and Design

The layout is designed for speed and ease of use. You can compare chamber sounds, adjust parameters, and switch between mono or stereo input and output, with output width and balance controls. The dry/wet mix and swap L/R features provide additional routing options, while the dynamics section helps control the reverb’s presence in a mix.

Presets, including the Gold Settings, offer immediate access to the exact parameters used at Atlantis Studios, so you can achieve a professional sound quickly. The plug-in’s straightforward workflow suits both beginners and experienced producers, allowing for creative experimentation without a steep learning curve.

Practical Applications

Atlantis Dual Chambers is ideal for adding depth and character to vocals, instruments, and entire mixes. Its bright, airy reflections work well on pop, rock, and other genres, providing a classic studio vibe. Use the chambers in tandem for a wide, immersive effect or separately for more focused spatial coloration.

The adjustable mics and damping make it suitable for creating tight, controlled reverb on drums or lush, expansive pads on synths and guitars. The British-style EQ and compression can help tailor the reverb to sit perfectly in a mix, while the ducking feature ensures it doesn’t clutter transients. This versatility makes it a valuable tool for mixing and sound design.
