REVERB CONTROLS
Reverb Bypass Footswitch & LED
Footswitch bypasses reverb effect. LED Illuminates when reverb is active.

Decay

This control adjusts the reverb decay time, or length of the reverb signal.
Counterclockwise settings produce smaller room and ambient sounds, while
settings closer to fully clockwise can produce the sound of huge spaces.

Damp

Attenuates high frequencies and "darkens" reverb tail.
Level (Reverb)
Controls "wet/dry" reverb signal mix.

ROOM
Classic modern reverb effect with
octave-up pitch shift in loop between
reverb input and output. Successive
octaves are added as reverb decays,
imparting a blooming, atmospheric effect.

Extra

Modifies an "extra" algorithm-specific parameter. On "Hall" and
"Room"reverb settings it controls "tilt" between high and low
frequency decay times. On Special "Shimmer" setting (see
"Variation Switch" below) it controls regeneration of cascading octaves.
On Special "Gated/Reverse" setting (see "Variation Switch" below) it
controls reverb tail shape, and on Special "Modulated" setting it controls
modulation depth.
