REQ: Neural DSP Archetype Rabea 1.0.1

Everything about Rabea is distinctive, from his look, the breadth of styles he effortlessly flows throughout, to his tone-crafting abilities.

We have been working together since our very beginnings and knew that when it was time to make his Archetype, we would have to do something as inspired and extraordinary as the man himself.

##FIXED

An issue where the Arpeggiator Rate was not updated correctly while changing Presets.

An issue where the Transpose is still active when its value is 0.

An issue where the Tuner and Metronome settings were not saved.

An issue where the Time based effects could present crackling noises on Apple Silicon.

An issue where dragging and moving the mics in the cabsim produced UI lag (VST3, Windows).

An issue where the CPU usage increased during gradual tempo changes between markers on Reaper 6 (Windows only).

##CHANGED

INPUT SWITCH is no longer affected by Presets.

ATLAS Delay's Tempo BPM can be dragged with the mouse.

"Import Preset" popup window is no longer stretched.

##ADDED

27 additional Presets made by Rabea Massaad.

“Let me solo her” factory preset added.

AAX Universal Binary (Pro Tools 2023.3.0 Compatible).

SYNTH SECTION
“OVERLORD” - Synth
The “Overlord” is a Synth device that triggers up to two oscillators
simultaneously.
This device is intended to work properly with monophonic
sources. If you play multiple notes or bigger chords while the
pedal is engaged, the behavior of the oscillators might be erratic.
Header Controls
MIX KNOB: Blend control for the Synth and the other plugin
sections.
INPUT SENSITIVITY KNOB: Determines the amount of input
signal necessary to trigger the oscillators.
ENV RETRIGGER SWITCH: When enabled, the oscillators will
trigger a new envelope each time a new note is played.
TUNING: Frequency selector. It affects the pitch of the Arpegiattor
notes.
PRE/POST SWITCH: Places the Synth at the beginning of the
audio chain or in parallel with the chain, where it is mixed back in
just before the Post FX section.
GATE KNOB: Attenuates the synth signal below the threshold.
OUTPUT KNOB: Determines the output level of the Synth pedal.
RED LED: Click to activate/deactivate the Synth section.
AMPLIFIER Controls
DCY/ATK KNOB: Increase to increment the attack value, which
sets the time it takes for the signal to rise from an amplitude of 0
to 100% (full amplitude).
Decrease to make the decay value faster, which sets the time it
takes for the signal to fall from 100% amplitude to the designated
sustain level.
SUSTAIN KNOB: Sets the steady amplitude level produced when
a note is played. The higher the value, the longer the amplitude will be held.

ARPEGGIATOR Controls
BYPASS SWITCH: Click to activate/deactivate the Arpeggiator.
ROOT: Drop down menu for selecting the root note. It establishes
the key of the musical scale selected.
MODE: Drop down menu for selecting the musical scale.
ARP PATTERN: Use this menu to select the pattern the arp notes
should follow.
OCTAVE SELECTOR: Determines how many octaves the Arp will
play.
NOTES SELECTOR: Click the numbers to add or remove notes
from the arpeggio. The Root note is always active.
SYNC BUTTON: Click to sync/unsync the arp rate to the current
tempo. The values of the RATE knob will toggle between musical
subdivisions and Hertz.
RATE KNOB: Sets the speed of the arpeggio.
OSCILLATOR Controls
BYPASS SWITCHES: Click to activate/deactivate the oscillators.
WAVEFORM SELECTOR: Determines the waveform shape: Sine,
Triangle, Sawtooth, and Square.
SEMITONES KNOBS: Transposes the waveform pitch up and
down up to 24 semitones.
LEVEL KNOBS: Adjusts the output level of the oscillator.
DETUNE KNOBS: Detunes the waveform pitch up and down to
100 cents.
UNISONS OSC 1 & 2: Click to activate/deactivate the unisons for
each oscillator.
UNISONS KNOB: Determines the number of additional voices.
WIDTH KNOB: Controls the panning of the additional voices.
Only active in POST mode.
FILTER Controls
BYPASS SWITCH: Click to activate/deactivate the Filter.
CUTOFF KNOB: It determines the range of high frequencies to
be cut.
RESONANCE KNOB: Amplifies the sound of a narrow band of
frequencies.
SLOPE SELECTOR: Determines how aggresive the cutoff is,
which is measured in decibels of gain reduction per octave: 6dB,
12dB, 18dB, and 24dB.
ENV AMT KNOB: At 0 value, the CUTOFF parameter is fixed to
the desired frequency. Increasing the ENV AMT knob will make
the CUTOFF frequency follow the envelope shape. Decreasing it
will invert the movement of the filter.
DCY/ATK KNOB: Increase to increment the attack value of the filtered signal. Decrease to make the decay value faster.
DRIVE KNOB: Adjusts the amount of drive

STOMPBOX SECTION
TWIN BLADE - Dual Compressor Pedal
DRY KNOB: Dry Input signal blend (uncompressed).
IN KNOB: Input level of the pedal.
ATT/REL 1 KNOB: Determines the speed of the fi rst compressor.
Turn it clockwise for slow attack and fast release. Turn it
counterclockwise for fast attack and slow release.
THRU KNOB: Sets the level of the signal fed from the output of
the fi rst compressor to the input of the second one.
ATT/REL 2 KNOB: Determines the speed of the second
compressor. Turn it clockwise for slow attack and fast release.
Turn it counterclockwise for fast attack and slow release.
OUT KNOB: Output level of the pedal.
BYPASS STOMP SWITCH: Click to activate/deactivate the pedal.
CHAOS BED - Octaver Pedal
MODE SWITCH: Toggles between two modes.
OCT UP KNOB: High pitched voice level.
OCT DWN KNOB: Low pitched voice level.
DIRECT LEVEL KNOB: Level of the unpitched signal.
BYPASS STOMP SWITCH: Click to activate/deactivate the pedal.

FUZZ KNOB: Adjusts the amount of Fuzz drive.
BASS/TREBLE KNOBS: Control the amount of low and high
frequencies, respectively.
LEVEL KNOB: Output level of the pedal.
MODE SWITCH: Toggles between two modes: “Vintage” and
“Modern”.
BYPASS STOMP SWITCH: Click to activate/deactivate the pedal.
PARAGON - Overdrive Pedal
DRIVE KNOB: Adjusts the amount of drive.
BASS/TREBLE KNOBS: Control the amount of low and high
frequencies, respectively.
LEVEL KNOB: Output level of the pedal.
MODE SWITCH: Toggles between two modes: “Vintage” and
“Modern”.
BYPASS STOMP SWITCH: Click to activate/deactivate the pedal.

PLUGIN FEATURES
METRONOME
A metronome is a device that produces a steady pulse to help
musicians play in time. The pulse is measured in Beats Per Minute
(BPM).
When using the standalone app, click on the metronome icon
to open its interface. Right-clicking on it will start/stop the
metronome playback. Closing the interface won’t stop the
playback.
The last used settings will be remembered after reopening the
standalone app.
MUTE BUTTON: Click to mute the beats.
VOL KNOB: Determines the metronome output volume.
PAN KNOB: Controls the output panning of the metronome.
TIME SIGNATURE MENU: This list features 21 different time
signatures, including compound and complex variations.
Selecting a time signature will change the beat order and the
musical accents.
SOUND SET MENU: This list includes 5 different sounds for the
metronome.
BEATS: Toggleable beats that can be changed or turned off
by clicking. They offer visual feedback according to the current
tempo, subdivisions, and accents selected. The white beats
include 3 different accents and the grey beats include only one.
Right-click on them to reveal a drop-down menu.
BEATS PER PULSE BUTTON: Determines how many beats can
be heard per pulse.
BPM VALUE: Determines the beat speed. The tempo ranges from
40 to 240 BPM.
UP/DOWN ARROWS: Click to change the value by 1.0 BPM. Clickand-hold to change the value by 10.0 BPM.
TAP TEMPO BUTTON: Controls the metronome tempo by
clicking it. The tempo is set as the interval between the last two
clicks and it’s also linked to the plugin global tempo.
