Early
Early Type
Several types are available - e.g. Bathroom, Car etc.
Pick the type that best compliments your material or best
represents the effect you are going for.
Early Color
Range: -40/+40
Adjusts the spectral balance in the high end frequencies.
This is actually a simple way of adjusting a complex
selection of frequencies.
Early Pos
Here you can select between a Close and a Distant setting.
This enables you to change the distance between the
listening position and the source in the same Early
Reflection pattern.
Please note that some of the Early Types only
have one position available.
Early Size
Range/Type: Small, Medium or Large
Changes the size of the Early Type parameter.
Some of the Early Types are one size.
Early Lo Cut
Range: Off to 400Hz
Sets the Lo Cut frequency for the Early Reflections.
Early Balance
Range: -100dB R, Center, -100dB L
The left/right balance of the Early Reflections. Allows you
to offset the Early Reflections from the normal center
position.
Reverb
Reverb
Rev Type
Range: Smooth, Natural, Alive, Fast, Fast Wd, Alive Wd
Adjust this parameter with the Early Level turned all the
way off and the Rev Level all the way up. Change the type
to get a feel of what each one sounds like.
Rev. Width
Range: Wide, Stereo, Center or Mono
With this parameter you can change the width of the diffuse
field. The Mono setting is where the left and right Reverb
Tails are completely identical, the Center setting opens
a bit up in the middle, Stereo is the normal stereo image
width and Wide covers the outside of the stereo image.
The RevTypes: Fast Wd and Alive Wd only have
one width (extremely wide).
Lo Cut
Range: 20Hz to 200Hz
Adjustable filter that allows you to remove low frequencies
from the Reverb. The Lo Cut frequency can be perceived
as a Threshold frequency. The cut will be performed
according to the Lo Damp parameter.
Lo Damp
Range: -18dB to 0dB
Sets the amount of cut in dBs. (See Lo Cut description
above).
Hi Cut
Range: 20Hz to 20kHz
Rolls off the top end of the signal as it enters the Reverb.
Used in conjunction with Hi Soften and Hi Decay to
“darken” a room.
Hi Soften
Range: -50 to +50
Hi Soften is a special filter used to “soften” the high
frequencies of Reverb. This is not a simple Hi Cut filter but
a complex set of filters working together to remove those
frequencies that make a Reverb sound “brittle” or harsh.
Hi Soften is scaled/linked to the Hi Cut and Hi Decay.
