D-Verb - DigiDesign DigiRack Plug-ins Manual

D-Verb

D-Verb is a studio-quality reverb provided in
TDM, RTAS, and AudioSuite formats.
The TDM version of the D-Verb plug-in is
not supported at 192 kHz; use the RTAS
version instead.

Output Meter
The Output Meter indicates the output level of
the processed signal. With the stereo version of
D-verb, it represents the summed stereo output.
It is important to note that this meter indicates
the output level of the signal—not the input
level. If this meter clips, it is possible that the
signal clipped on input before it reached
D-Verb. Monitor your send or insert signal levels
closely to help prevent this from happening.

Clip Indicator
The Clip Indicator shows if clipping has oc-
curred. It is a clip-hold indicator. If clipping oc-
curs at any time during audio playback, the clip
lights remain on. To clear the clip indicator,
click it. With longer reverb times there is a
greater likelihood of clipping occurring as the
feedback element of the reverb builds up and ap-
proaches a high output level. See also "Clip In-
dicators" on page 22.
Input Level
The Input Level slider adjusts the input volume
of the reverb to prevent the possibility of clip-
ping and/or increase the level of the processed
signal.
Mix
The Mix slider adjusts the balance between the
dry signal and the effected signal, giving you
control over the depth of the effect. This control
is adjustable from 100% to 0%.
Algorithm
This control selects one of seven reverb algo-
rithms: Hall, Church, Plate, Room 1, Room 2,
Ambience, or Nonlinear. Selecting an algorithm
changes the preset provided for it. Switching the
Size setting changes characteristics of the algo-
rithm that are not altered by adjusting the decay
time and other user-adjustable controls. Each of
the seven algorithms has a distinctly different
character:
Hall A good general purpose concert hall with a
natural character. It is useful over a large range
of size and decay times and with a wide range of
program material. Setting Decay to its maxi-
mum value will produce infinite reverberation.
