About Cloud Seven
The Cloud Seven is a stereo algorithmic reverb in the image of the great dedicated mainframe units — and it is operated like one. A dot-matrix display legible from across the room, an endless adjust wheel, cursor keys and six mode keys. Programs load with prog → enter, tap taps in pre-delay, and fifty user registers and four favorite keys live in the machine — shared across every instance and every session, like outboard.
Behind the faceplate is a 16-line modulated feedback delay network with a lossless Hadamard core: the mixing matrix is orthonormal, so every bit of decay comes from the per-line absorption filters and none from the matrix. The decay you dial is the decay you get — measured mid-band RT60 lands within ±5% of the number on the display from 1 to 8 seconds.
118 factory programs in six banks — Halls, Plates, Rooms, Chambers, Ambience and Spaces — each with its own early-reflection geometry feeding the tank, so the tail blooms out of the reflections instead of arriving as a second event.
