Reverb Section - Viscount Legend ‘70s Artist-W User Manual

REVERB section

Reverb is a sum of the various acoustic reflections of a sound in a space. A great number of factors determine
the acoustic effects of a reverberation, such as the size and shape of the ambient, the material of which the
walls are made, and much more.
The REVERB menu contains the parameters of the REVERB section on the
To access this menu, enter the EDIT PROGRAM screen (page 28) place the cursor on the REVERB field, then
press the data entry dial, or hold down the reverb category knob for a short while (see point 3, page 8).
Reverb types
There are several available reverb effects on Legend '70s, divided into categories, according to the type of
ambient or reverb device they simulate. To select a category, use the dedicated knob (see point 3, page 8) or
access the Category parameter under the REVERB menu.
Each reverb category contains different variants, called types. To choose one, press the selection knob then
select the reverb type; alternatively, you can access the Type parameter under the REVERB menu.
The following table shows all the available reverb types:

 Small Room: reverb of a small room with highly absorbing walls.

 Large Room: reverb of a large room with low sound absorption.
 Small Hall: reverb of a small concert hall, with rather reflective walls
