Program Changes
Many of the things you used to have to change programs to do can now be achieved by
changing multiple parameters in the same program!
NuVerb offers some new ways of dealing with the age old problem of loss of audio between
program changes. Using the "dual machine" Cascade programs, the output level control of
Effect A and Effect B can be assigned to a Hot Fader or a MIDI Controller with their respective
MIDI controls set in opposition. This causes one program to fade out while the other fades in,
all controlled from one fader. The obvious example is two different types of reverb, but you
can work with any of the Cascade programs.
The Single programs are large programs that use both of NuVerb's internal processors as a
single unified engine. When a program change happens, both processors must be loaded with
new information. This happens quickly, but it does take time. If you want to make changes
using Single programs, remember to take advantage of parameter changes. Often, doing this
is all that is needed. Experiment!
List overload
There are times when your Macintosh may be very busy, and your list very full. At times like
this, it is important to understand that NuVerb will always try to execute all list moves with
1/2 frame accuracy. If the system becomes overloaded, the program has been designed to skip
moves in order to preserve time flow and prevent freezing or bogging down.
