    Supported Channel Modes INTRODUCTION HD Cart is a high-density reverb plugin modelled after one of the most sought after and expensive reverb units of all time. It was next to impossible to walk into almost any professional recording studio in the mid to late 1980s - and for many years after - and not have one be in the room somewhere.
  • Page 3: Installation

    INSTALLATION Reverb Foundry requires an Intel or AMD processor and approximately 50 MB per plug-in format to be installed. The plug-is is authorised via iLok (an iLok 2, iLok 3 or computer based iLok location is required for activation). Before installing the plug-ins, please install the iLok License Manager (http://www.ilok.com)

    PRESET MANAGEMENT You may select factory presets by clicking on the preset name in the main plug-in window to show a list, or by moving between presets using the chevron icons (< >). Preset initialisation options are provided in the menu: Initialise preset Controls whether a preset is initialised with the enhanced recirculation with enhanced...

    MASTER CONTROLS The master controls affect filtering and gain of the reverb and early reflections. Whilst in a real room a reverb’s initial wall reflections and late reverberant field are contiguous, artificial algorithms typically allow them to be controlled individually as this is musically very useful. Reverb Level and Roll-off The late reverberant field level and filtering are modified using these two controls.

    Spread The effect of the spread parameter is to change the perceived size of the room by modifying its initial reflective characteristics. Larger spread values cause noticeable pre-delays in some components of the reverb which tends to make the room sound larger. Hence it is often a more effective way of changing the perceived size of the room than using the size control itself.

    Front/Rear The HD Cart algorithm is inherently a surround algorithm, but it was designed so that it could also facilitate very high-density reverbs by combining the front and surround output components. This parameter controls the balance of the master (front) and surround (rear) algorithm output levels.

    Wander (Modulation) Modifying the amount of modulation within the algorithm allows the user to change the liveliness of the room. Small quantities are recommended. This parameter works in concert with the spin control. REFLECTIONS CONTROLS Affects characteristics of the early reflections (timing and filtering). Two sets of modulated reflections are provided, one for the front outputs and one for the rears.
