Pre-Delay: sets the amount of delay before the reverberated signal is heard. This setting
should be set to best match your algorithm. For example, a larger pre-delay time when using
Large Concert Hall B.
Distance (slider): Adjusts the perceived distance between a sound and its reverberated
counterpart. Labelled "DEPTH" on the original
Dry/Wet: Sets the balance between the original & the reverberated signal. The higher this is
set, the less of your original or "Dry" signal is heard and the more reverb is heard.
Dry/Wet Lock: locks the current value of the dry/wet knob when browsing through presets.
Lock : Locks the parameter values when changing algorithms. Labelled "IMMED" for
Immediate mode on the original unit. Contrary to the original, Mode Enhancement, Decay
optimization and Pitch Shift settings are not reset when Lock is active.
Mode Enhancement (on/off toggle + stepped control 1-16) : Increases the effective density
of modes by modulating the algorithm time delay. It controls the coloration at the end of
the 224 decay and produces a noticeably warmer sound. Lower values make the effect
stronger.
Decay optimization (on/off toggle + stepped control 1-16) : Improves the naturalness of the
decay by altering internal parameters in response to changes in the input level. It can tell
the difference between drums and vocals and adjusts its parameters correctly for each. It
increases the clarity and reduces the coloration of the decay, but can make it uneven. Lower
values make the effect stronger.

1.2.1. Expanded features:

Drive: Compensated drive around the input transformer 0 to +50 dB. It will mostly react to
low frequencies and begin to highpass the signal if too much is applied. It is situated before
the input highpass, allowing to generate harmonics from low tones even if they are cut.
Hi-Pass Filter Cutoff: Sets the cutoff Frequency of the wet path input HPF. 12dB/octave or
24dB/octave ; Q=0.707 Use this to set the amount of high frequency that passes above the
set value. It can be used to remove a lot of the low frequencies.
Dynamic module: Features a choice of 3 additional dynamic effects - Ducker, Tremolo and
Gate - adding movement and timing to the reverb sound.
Brightness: Linear tilt on the reverb wet signal, right before the dry/wet control. Use this
setting to add a high frequency boost to your reverb. This can be helpful to add some extra
sparkle to your reverb, especially when in one of the Vintage modes.
Stereo Width: Adjusts the stereo width of the reverberated signal. This works to put your
reverb into a wider stereo field, helping to emulate a real acoustic space and add more
realism.
Pitch Shift : Increases the range of modulation for Mode Enhancement. Higher values give
higher modulation. Going to 4-5 will make the reverb tail sound like it contains a chorus
effect and higher values will give audible pitch shifting. The effect is reduced when high
values are set in Mode Enhancement, and disabled if Mode Enhancement is off.
Diffusion: Adjusts the amount of diffusion coming from the all-pass delays. It is accessible
with "Shift + DEPTH" on the original unit.
We hope that this powerful, easy-to-use reverb becomes an essential part of your creative
toolbox, and that it leads you to many great creative discoveries!
