Chapter 12 Reverb eects 237
SilverVerb
SilverVerb provides a low frequency oscillator (LFO) that can modulate the reverberated signal.
It also includes a high cut and a low cut lter, allowing you to lter frequencies from the reverb
signal. High frequency transients in reverb signals can sound unpleasant, can hamper speech
intelligibility, or mask the overtones of the original signal. Long reverb tails with a lot of bass
generally result in an indistinct mix.
SilverVerb parameters
•
Predelay slider and eld: Drag to set the time between the original signal and the reverb signal.
•
Reectivity slider and eld: Drag to dene how reective the imaginary walls, ceiling, and
oor are.
•
Room Size slider and eld: Drag to dene the dimensions of the simulated room.
•
Density/Time slider and eld: Drag to determine both the density and the duration of
the reverb.
•
Low Cut slider and eld: Drag to lter frequencies below the set value out of the reverb signal.
This aects only the tone of the reverb signal, not the original signal.
•
High Cut slider and eld: Drag to lter frequencies above the set value out of the reverb signal.
This aects only the tone of the reverb signal, not the original signal.
•
Mod(ulation) Rate knob and eld: Drag to set the frequency (the speed) of the LFO.
•
Mod(ulation) Phase knob and eld: Drag to dene the phase of the modulation between the
left and right channels of the reverb signal.
•
At 0°, the extreme values (minimum or maximum) of the modulation are achieved
simultaneously on both the left and right channels.
•
At a value of 180°, the extreme values opposite each other (left channel minimum, right
channel maximum, or vice versa) are reached simultaneously.
•
Mod(ulation) Intensity slider and eld: Drag to set the modulation amount. A value of 0 turns o
the delay modulation.
•
Mix slider and eld: Drag to set the balance between the eect (wet) and original (dry) signals.
