Reverb
You can control the sound of the reverb effect using the following parameters:
Room size: Defines the size of the room (or the system for the plate and spring). The
larger a room, the longer the sound travels between walls or objects. With some low
"size" settings you can also reduce the distance between the individual reflections.
This allows resonance to develop (accentuated frequency ranges), which can sound
oppressive if the reverb sustain is too long.
Tone quality: You can manipulate the sound characteristics of the effect to an extent.
The effect of this controller depends on the preset used. In rooms, "Color" controls
the dampening of the highs in the reverb (from dark to bright) as well as pre-filtering
of the signal. With plate and spring presets, this fader determines the dampening of
the basses as well.
Reverberation time: With this knob you can adjust the reverberation time and
determine how much of it will be absorbed and, simultaneously, the reverb's decay.
Pre-delay: The reverb portion ("Mix") and the early reflections play a big role in the
spatial perception of the sound. Here the time required for the perception of the early
reflection is know as "Pre-delay". For sound sources that are close, the reverb portion
is usually low and the early reflections reach the ear noticeably later than the direct
sound. In contrast, sound sources that are far away usually have a high reverb portion
and the early reflections reach the ear almost simultaneously with the direct sound.
The length of the pre-delay can be used to influence the perceived "distance" between
the sound source and the listener.
Mix: This controller sets the mix ratio between the original and the edited signal. For
rooms, you can move a signal further into the room by increasing the effect share. The
last four presets are intended for use in an AUX channel of the mixer and are set to
100%.
Presets
The presets represent the basic settings for the various room algorithms, which can
be still be varied along with the other parameters. Hence, they are more than just
simply parameter sets.
Delay
This effect is like an echo which delays the signal and repeats it.
Delay: This sets the period of time between the individual echoes. The more the
control is turned to the left, the faster the echoes will follow each other.
