REQ: Flowsonics Intercosm (Creative Shimmer Reverb)

Intercosm is a shimmer reverb effect for making lush and unique reverb tails.

The shimmer effect is created by sending a pitch-shifted signal into a gorgeous algorithmic reverb, and by feeding the processed signal back into the pitch-shifter. The result can be anything from bouncy delays to massive ethereal shimmers.

Intercosm has several audio reversal capabilities which let you creatively shape both the incoming and outgoing audio in unique ways. It includes a visualizer for the reverse audio buffer and gives the user the ability to freely adjust the length of the reversed signal.
