Selects the type of effect to be produced by the Reverb effect stage. Unlike the

preceding effect stages, the parameters are the same for all Reverb effect types. No effect

parameters appear when the Reverb effect stage is turned “

off

”.

A simulation of the reverbation characteristics of a fairly standard

concert hall.

This hall simulation produces a richer low-frequency reverb sound than

the Hall 1 program.

The ambience of a small room rather than a large hall. This effect is

ideal when you just want a subtle touch of ambience.

A larger room than the Room 1 simulation, with a correspondingly

“bigger” reverb sound.

In recording studios it is generally desirable to suppress low-frequency

reverbeation without entirely losing the “live” sound of the room. The

Studio program simulates this type of environment.

The plate reverb unit is a classic tool of the recording trade — it was

the first mechanical method of creating artificial reverberation that

capable of producing satisfactory results in the studio. This is a very

realistic simulation.

A diffuse reverberation of the type you might experience in an ex-

tremely large space.

In this effect the reverb sound plays in reverse, building up to

maximum level rather than decaying as normal.
