■ Drag the yellow dot right or left.
Master Mix Controls
The Master Mix section has controls for adjust-
ing the relative levels of the source signal and
the reverb effect, and also the width of the re-
verb effect in the stereo field.
Wet/Dry Adjusts the mix between the dry, un-
processed signal and the reverb effect.
Stereo Width Controls the width of the reverb in
the stereo field. A setting of 0% produces a
mono reverb. A setting of 100% produces maxi-
mum spread in the stereo field.
100% Wet Toggles the Wet/Dry control between
100% wet and the current setting.
Dynamics Controls
The Dynamics section has controls for adjusting
Reverb One’s response to changes in input sig-
nal level.
Dynamics can be used to modify a reverb’s de-
cay character, making it sound more natural, or
conversely, more unnatural, depending on the
desired effect.
Typically, dynamics are used to give a reverb a
shorter decay time when the input signal is
above the threshold, and a longer decay time
when the input level drops below the threshold.
This produces a longer, more lush reverb tail
and greater ambience between pauses in the
source audio, and a shorter, clearer reverb tail in
sections without pauses.
For example, on a vocal track, use Dynamics to
make the reverb effect tight, clear, and intelligi-
ble during busy sections of the vocal (where the
signal is above the Threshold setting), and then
“bloom” or lengthen at the end of a phrase
(where the signal falls below the threshold).
Similarly, Dynamics can be used on drum tracks
to mimic classic gated reverb effects by causing
the decay time to cut off quickly when the input
level is below the threshold.
