3.2.5. Default

Pushing the Default button resets all controls to a predefined state. All effects except 3D & Reverb
effects are turned off. Speaker mode selection and 3D effects remain unchanged. All playback mixer
sliders except microphone are un-muted. Record sliders remain as set by user. Fader and volume
sliders are set to their factory default levels, and Presets go to Neutral.

3.2.6. Help

This button launches the on-line help system. It contains detailed descriptions of all features of the
PSA2 interface.

3.2.7. Reverb

This button toggles the QSound Environmental Modeling (QEM) on or off. However, some games
apply their own environmental effects, which are not controlled by this button. Environmental
modeling uses reverb (reflected sound) and delay to create the impression that the listener is in a
particular environment.
QEM provides a wide range of high-quality environmental modeling effects that are selectable from
the Visualization panel. By selecting a default environment, you impose the effects of that
environment for music, movies, or games that do not use the EAX feature,
PSA2 responds automatically to games that use the EAX and EAX2.0 commands. These games
automatically control the selection of environments (regardless of what is selected from the
Visualization panel) to match various scenes and locations, and change these selections as the
environment changes. The applied intensity of reverb is controllable by a slider in the Visualization
panel. If the level of Reverb is not as expected, check the slider in the Visualization panel and adjust
properly.
