WHAT IT IS
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mixprism Reverse Reverb Swell is a GENERATOR / creative UTILITY, not a
real-time reverb effect. You load a one-shot (vocal, synth, snare, pad...)
and it renders a reverse-reverb swell that rises UP into the attack -
perfect for transitions, risers and intros. You then drag the finished
WAV straight into your DAW.

It ships in TWO flavours (same engine):
  1. GENERATOR  - "Mixprism Reverse Reverb Swell"      -> DAW instrument /
                   channel-rack / pattern slot.
  2. EFFECT     - "Mixprism Reverse Reverb Swell FX"   -> insert it on a
                   mixer track/bus so the window STAYS OPEN while you work.
                   NOTE: the FX build does NOT reverse-reverb your track in
                   real time - it passes the track audio through and simply
                   hosts the generator UI. The workflow is the same:
                   load -> generate -> drag the WAV out.


QUICK START
------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. LOAD a file (or drag a WAV/AIFF/FLAC/OGG onto the window).
2. On the INPUT wave: drag to SELECT the region to process.
     - Drag the cyan edges to trim left/right.
     - Mouse wheel or double-click = zoom in/out.
     - Single click = set the play cursor / clear the selection.
3. Press GENERATE. The swell builds and can be auditioned.
4. Tweak the knobs - the swell RE-GENERATES automatically.
5. On the OUTPUT wave: drag to select a FADE-OUT zone if needed.
6. Drag the WAV chip (bottom-left of OUTPUT) into your DAW - or use the
     FILES button to open the renders folder. Each drag writes a NEW,
     uniquely-named WAV (nothing is ever overwritten).


THE KNOBS (short)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
SWELL LEN - length of the rising swell     LUSH    - reverb size / decay
DAMPING   - tames the high tail            FADE IN - softens the start
FADE OUT  - abrupt tail cut                WET     - reverb vs dry
OUTPUT    - output gain (dB)               GATE    - rhythmic tempo chop
Append dry hit - glues the dry sample at the end of the swell.
Tempo sync - SWELL LEN follows the host beat grid (or manual BPM).
PIN - keeps the window on top (handy in FL Studio "Detached" mode).


INSTALL
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Run "Mixprism-ReverseReverbSwell-Setup-v0.1.3.exe" and follow the wizard
(you must accept the license to continue).

SMARTSCREEN NOTE (unsigned build):
This is an independent release and is NOT code-signed yet, so Windows
SmartScreen may show a blue "Windows protected your PC" dialog.
That is expected. To install:
     -> click "More info"
     -> then click "Run anyway".
The installer is safe; it only writes the VST3 + Standalone as described.

Prefer no installer? Use the .zip: copy the two .vst3 bundles into your
VST3 folder yourself and run the Standalone .exe directly.


VST3 PATH (where the plugins land)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The installer copies both bundles to the common VST3 folder that DAWs
scan by default:

     C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3\
         Mixprism Reverse Reverb Swell.vst3        (Generator)
         Mixprism Reverse Reverb Swell FX.vst3     (Effect / mixer insert)

After installing, RESCAN plugins in your DAW:
     FL Studio:  Options -> Manage plugins -> Find plugins.
The Generator appears under Generators/Instruments; the FX under Effects.


TESTED IN
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tested in FL Studio 2024 (Windows x64), VST3 and Standalone.
Also compatible with other VST3 hosts (Ableton Live, Cubase, Reaper...).
Windows x64 only. No macOS / AU build at this time.


LICENSE & REFUND
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Personal, single-user license. Resale, redistribution or sharing of the
installer/license is prohibited. See EULA.txt for the full terms.
The sounds and audio renders you create are yours to use commercially.

Because this is a downloadable digital good delivered immediately, sales
are final. If the plugin does not work on a supported setup, contact us
first - we will help or make it right.
