Official effect
Reverse-like swell texture built from layered forward delays rather than true reversed playback.
The current reverse-style family does not reverse buffered audio. Instead, it layers two forward delays: a darker low-passed tap and a brighter high-passed supporting tap, then blends that texture with the dry source. `time` stretches both taps, `tone` opens the darker layer, and the declared `feedback` control is unused in the current preview.
Static peaks come from the compiled FAUST preview render. The live scope is drawn from the browser playback output in real time.

Signal Path
Preview source: An internally generated picked-string phrase is widened to stereo with a 19-sample right-channel delay and slight left/right shelf-EQ offsets before it hits the delay core.

Forward-delay reverse-like smear built from layered low-passed and high-passed taps.
The static waveform and the live player both reflect this compiled signal chain.
These are the currently active controls detected in the FAUST source for this effect.
The generated description is tied to the active helper blocks and routing found in the current DSP.
Controls
Blends between the dry source and the processed delay texture after the effect core.
Lower settings stay more direct; higher settings move the patch toward the effected repeat field.
Applies final post-effect level trim after DC blocking and before the output limiter.
Matches loudness without changing the actual delay structure.
Sets the two forward delay taps that form the reverse-like smear.
Stretches the swelling texture into longer pre-echo style tails.
Declared in the shared control set but unused in the current preview code.
Changing it currently has no effect on the sound.
Raises the low-pass cutoff on the primary delayed layer.
Makes the reverse-like swell darker at low settings and more open at high settings.
Analysis
Current implementation is a reverse-like filtered dual-delay texture rather than true reversed buffer playback, and the declared feedback control is inactive.
No current warnings are attached to this effect.
