LE ICON F REVERBS REVERB PARAMETERS
PRE DLY P e Del
Adjust time delay between the source signal and the onset of reverberation.
This control is not intended to precisely mimic the time delays in natural spaces, as the build-up of reverberation is
gradual, and the initial time gap is usually relatively short. For the most natural effect, the Pre Delay values should
be set in the range of 10-25 milliseconds. However, if a mix is very busy or overly cluttered, increasing the Pre
Delay time may help clarify it, and set each instrument apart from each other.
Mi RT Mi R n e Re e Time
Adjust the amount of time the mid-range reverb can be heard.
Higher settings increase reverberation times which are usually associated with larger acoustical environments,
but can decrease intelligibility. Lower settings shorten reverb times and should be used when a smaller apparent
space or a more subtle effect is desired.
Si e
Build-up rate of diffusion after the initial period (which is controlled by Diffusion).
The Size control changes reverb sound from very large to very small. Generally, set this control to the approximate
size of the acoustic space being created, before adjusting anything else. The size in meters is roughly equal to the
longest dimension of the space. Audio is temporarily muted when Size is changed.
RT Hi C t
signal.
It does not attenuate the reflections. High frequencies are often rolled off with this parameter, resulting in more
natural-sounding reverberation. Setting a low frequency for this parameter can actually shorten the reverb time,
as it damps the audio as it recirculates
