Section 4 - Algorithms
REVERSE REVERB 2
00 - Reverse Reverb 2 is identical to Reverse Reverb, except this algorithm will retrigger by an
assigned input signal level (threshold) determined by the user. Once triggered, the reverse
envelope will proceed to completion, unless retriggered by subsequent input signals. If you are
looking for a reverse effect that will not retrigger, try using the previous Reverse Reverb
algorithm.
The parameters available for this algorithm are:
01-Mix
02-Volume
See the descriptions under the Mix and Volume Parameters, found earlier in this section.
03 - Envelope Hold Time
Range: 1 ms to 10.0s
This parameter controls the amount of time that the reverse will sound after it has been triggered.
Rule of thumb: Don't set the hold time much longer than the attack time.
04-Attack
Range: 1 ms to 10.0s
This sets the duration over which the reverb builds. It is recommended that you set this value
less than the hold time (parameter 03).
05- Release
Range: 1 ms to 10.0s
Determines the release time after the hold time has elapsed. Generally this time is very short.
Lower values offer an abrupt cutoff.
06 - Trigger Threshold
Range: -96 to +00 dB
Set this parameter as low as possible to work with your particular sound source. To eliminate
false triggering, it should not be set too low. When the input signal rises above this threshold, the
reverse envelope will begin.
07 - Pre-Trigger Memory
Range: 0 to 530 ms
This parameter is used to capture transients which occur before the trigger. This parameter is
critical to the sound quality. The user determines how much pretrigger sound will be injected
into the reverse reverb tank.
