RE-201 (Space Echo)
This is a delay that models the Roland RE-201 Space Echo. The
original was mono-in, mono-out, but this modeling adds PAN HEAD
SHORT/MIDDLE/LONG settings and a REVERB STEREO Sw, allowing
you to use it as a mono-in, stereo-out effect.
The RE-201 was a very popular product that was produced from
1974 to 1987.

SRV-2000 (Digital Reverb)

This is a mono-in, stereo-out reverb that models the Roland
SRV-2000 MIDI digital reverb. It provides two modes: REVERB
mode in which it operates as a conventional reverb, and NON LNR
(non-linear) mode in which the reverb sound is cut off according to
the gate time setting.
When SRV-2000 is selected, two tabs are displayed.
