Plate Reverb

A plate reverb was originally created by sending a signal through a transducer
to create vibrations on a plate of sheet metal which were then picked up as an
audio signal. Our algorithm simulates that sound with high initial diff usion and a
bright colored sound. The Plate Reverb will give your tracks the sound heard on
countless hit records since the late 1950s. (Inspired by the Lexicon PCM-70)
PRE DELAY controls the amount of time before the reverberation is heard
following the source signal. DECAY controls the amount of time it takes for the
reverb to dissipate. SIZE adjusts the size of the virtual room created by the reverb
eff ect. The DAMP knob adjusts the decay of high frequencies within the reverb
tail. DIFF(USION) controls the initial refl ection density. The LO CUT knob sets the
frequency beneath which the source signal will not pass through the reverb.
The HI CUT knob sets the frequency above which the source signal will not pass
through the reverb. The BASS MULT(IPLIER) knob adjusts the decay time of the
bass frequencies. XOVER controls the crossover point for bass. MOD DEPTH and
SPEED control the intensity and speed of the reverb tail modulation.
Gated Reverb
This eff ect was originally achieved by combining a reverb with a noise gate.
Our gated reverb creates the same impression by a special shaping of the
reverb tail.
Gated Reverb is especially eff ective for creating a 1980s-style snare sound or to
enlarge the presence of a kick drum. (Inspired by the Lexicon 300/480L)
PRE DELAY controls the amount of time before the reverberation is heard
following the source signal. DECAY controls the amount of time it takes for the
reverb to dissipate. ATTACK controls how fast the refl ection density builds up.
DENSITY shapes the reverb decay tail. The higher the density, the greater the
number of sound refl ections. SPREAD controls how the refl ection is distributed
through the envelope of the reverb. The LO CUT knob sets the frequency beneath
which the source signal will not pass through the reverb. The HiSvFr/ HiSvGn
knobs adjust a Hi-Shelving fi lter at the input of the reverb eff ect. DIFF(USION)
controls the initial refl ection density.

Reverse Reverb

Reverse Reverb takes the trail of a reverb, turns it around, and places it in front
of the sound source. Use the swelling crescendo of the Reverse Reverb to add an
ethereal quality to vocal and snare tracks. (Inspired by the Lexicon 300/480L)
Adjusting the PRE DELAY knob adds up to 200 milliseconds of time before the
reverb follows the source signal. The DECAY knob adjusts the time it takes for
the reverb to completely dissipate. RISE controls how quickly the eff ect builds
up. DIFF(USION) controls the initial refl ection density. SPREAD controls how the
refl ection is distributed through the envelope of the reverb. The LO CUT knob
sets a low frequency beneath which the source signal will not pass through the
reverb. The HiSvFr/HiSvGn knobs adjust a Hi-Shelving fi lter at the input of the
reverb eff ect.

Chorus + Chamber

Taking up only one FX slot, the Chorus + Chamber eff ect combines the shimmer
and doubling characteristics of a studio-grade Chorus with the sweet sound of a
traditional Chamber reverb. (Reverb is Inspired by the Lexicon PCM 70)
The BALANCE knob adjusts the balance between chorus and reverb.
Low frequencies can be excluded with the LO CUT knob, and the MIX knob adjusts
how much of the eff ect is added to the signal. SPEED, DELAY and DEPTH adjust
the rate, delay, and modulation depth of the chorus. The LFO PHASE between left
and right channel can be off set by up to 180 degrees, and WAVE adjusts the LFO
waveform from a sine wave to triangular wave. The PREDELAY knob determines
the hesitation before the reverb aff ects the signal. The DECAY knob adjusts how
quickly the reverb fades. The SIZE controls how large or small the simulated
space is (room, cathedral, etc.). The DAMPING knob determines the decay of high
frequencies within the reverb tail.
