Reverie fits into four distinct production realities. Pick the one that matches yours – every page shows the workflow, the modules, and the exports tailored to it.
Start from a curated mood, or from the technical recipe under it. In Pro you can also build a chain of your own, module by module.
ready-to-use moods
Tape loop erosion and analog decay. Vintage haze for nostalgic drift.
Deep resonant drones for meditation. Sympathetic harmonics and slow breathing.
Organic nature-inspired warmth with gentle breathing textures.
Infinite space with distant echoes and celestial drones. Journey through stars.
Rich harmonic resonances with sympathetic overtones. Tuned physical modeling.
Voices from another dimension. Formant-shifted harmonics create ghostly choirs.

Reverie is in the hands of working composers, producers and sound designers. Here is what some of them, and the press, have to say.
Featured in
“a new and fascinating tool”
“…particularly useful for true crime shows, game developers, or anyone else that wants copyright-free ambient tracks”
“a useful and time‑saving helper”
“The effect modules all sound good and offer a satisfying selection of parameters.”
“a really cool new app”
“…some really interesting and useful results - all offline and local to your machine, no AI involved”
The OED definition of Reverie is "a state of being pleasantly lost in one's thoughts; a daydream. It is a dreamy, meditative state of mind where a person is temporarily unaware of their immediate surroundings". And that is precisely what happened when I encountered and used Reverie the first time. It has become an essential tool in expanding my sonic adventures.
I've done Trailer Music Sound Design in the past and other than Ambient tracks, which Reverie is more than qualified for, I've been creating loops of my complete songs where I import them into Reverie to create parts and use within my Rock Hybrid Remixes. It's a fantastic way to work and I really don't have any other tools that sound like this. So glad I found it!
Reverie serves both as both a creative and reflective instrument. You learn more about the sounds you have made, and yourself.
Reverie has been invaluable for making drones and other beds for my DnB tracks: it doesn't have to be used on its own!

Two things, on macOS, Windows, Linux and iPad. A source filter: a low cut and a high cut on your file, set with two handles and heard live on the source preview, so the rumble or the hiss in a recording never gets stretched. And Layer Mode: play up to three results at once, levelled for you, to hear which textures belong together before you export them. The release before, 1.14, added sample region selection everywhere, and on iPad two AUv3 plugins and recording from a microphone or a USB interface. 1.13 was the native rewrite: up to 5× faster than 1.0, the Pro Chain Builder with 37 DSP modules, 5 new factory presets, 4 export formats and undo/redo.
No. Your Pro license migrates automatically. Install the current version, open it once, and your Pro features unlock. Zero action, zero upgrade fee, and the same is true of every 1.x release since.
A mode added in 1.13 where you build your own effect chain from 37 DSP modules. Drag, drop, reorder, bypass, tweak every parameter, and save your chains as custom presets.
Input: WAV, MP3, FLAC, OGG, M4A, AIFF. Output (Pro): WAV, FLAC, OGG, AIFF at 16 or 24-bit. Free tier exports WAV only.
Any audio source works in Reverie: songs, vocal takes, field recordings, instrument loops, even short samples. Sparse and harmonic sources (pads, vocals, solo instruments) tend to produce the cleanest ambient textures, while dense mixes with heavy drums get smeared into atmospheric beds.
Reverie Pro renders ambient soundscapes up to 30 minutes per track, ideal for meditation apps, game audio beds, film scoring or long-form streaming. The free tier is capped at 3 minutes per render, which is enough to evaluate the sound quality on your own source material before upgrading.
No, Reverie is a one-time purchase. 29€ unlocks the full Pro experience for life: 30-minute renders, all 20 factory presets, the Custom Chain Builder, and every minor and patch update within the 1.x series. No recurring fee, ever.
Reverie runs natively on macOS 13 and later (Apple Silicon M1, M2, M3, M4 and Intel), on Windows 10 or 11 (64-bit), and on Linux (x86_64). One license unlocks all three desktop platforms. There is also a native iPad app, free to download on the App Store, licensed separately from the desktop version. On older systems, the legacy Reverie 1.0 still runs on macOS 11 and later: see /legacy.
On macOS, Windows and Linux, Reverie is a standalone app, not a plugin. It integrates with any DAW via drag & drop and 4 export formats at 16/24-bit: drop the output onto your timeline and you're done. On iPad, since 1.14, it also ships as two AUv3 plugins: an instrument you play from a keyboard in AUM, Logic or GarageBand, and Capture, an effect that records the bus it sits on straight into Reverie.
Reverie ships Dreamtime, our extended evolution of Paul Nasca's Paulstretch (2006), alongside 36 other DSP modules, 20 curated presets and a Pro Chain Builder. PaulXStretch remains an excellent open-source tool for pure stretch and runs as a DAW plugin. Full breakdown at /compare/paulxstretch-vs-reverie, and what the algorithm actually does at /products/reverie/blog/paulstretch-explained.
Yes! The Pro version includes seed-based reproducibility for byte-identical results.
Reverie transforms your audio. The rights over the output depend on the rights you have over the original file. Make sure you're allowed to use your source material.
Yes, Reverie is fully offline. After license validation, the DSP runs natively on your Mac, Windows or Linux machine, and on the iPad, with no server calls and no cloud upload of your audio. Your files and creative work never leave your computer.
Yes, your license works on all your personal computers (macOS, Windows and Linux). The iPad app is licensed separately, through the App Store.
Yes, two ways. In Dreamscape mode, Reverie combines the right modules automatically based on your chosen style. In Pro Chain Builder mode, you pick any of the 37 DSP modules yourself and build your own chain.
Reverie is signed with a valid Authenticode code-signing certificate, the same standard every major audio plugin uses on Windows. But Windows SmartScreen has a second layer called Application Reputation, which builds up over thousands of installs before it stops showing the warning. Parallel Minds is a brand-new studio, so we are at the very beginning of that reputation curve. To run Reverie the first time, click "More info" then "Run anyway". The warning only shows up once per binary and disappears completely once the reputation threshold is reached. We chose to keep our standard certificate and be transparent about this stage rather than mask it. The macOS build is notarized by Apple and shows no warning.
Contact us at info@parallel-minds.studio and we'll resend it.
