How to load a sound’s effect settings into a
setup
In sound mode, if you have assigned effects to and
stored them with a sound, the effect settings are
loaded into a setup when you load the sound from
the sound database. These settings are applied to all
sounds within the setup if master effects are
switched off for the setup at the time of loading. This
means you can easily configure the effect settings
for your setup by simply loading a sound into a
setup. Then you are free to edit the settings.
Please bear in mind that you must define the send
values for every sound (delay and reverb) in the setup
menu because these settings do not exist in sound
mode.
Rather than being referenced or linked, a sound’s
master effects settings are actually copied from the
sound database into the setup. If you edit master
effect settings within a setup, these changes are not
applied retroactively to the sounds contained in the
setup. The data held in the sound database is
retained.
Diffusion Determines the spread of late reflections. This
parameter effects the density of the reverb
signal. A high diffusion value evokes a softer,
fuller reverb effect. Be aware, though, that
overlapping reflections can muddy the
soundscape. A low value generates audible
echoes. For this reason, strings tend to
handle higher diffusion settings better than
percussive sounds.
Value range: 0 to 127.
HF damp Adjusts high frequency dampening in the
decay phase. The amount of attenuation is a
factor of time: The longer the decay time, the
darker the signal becomes.
Value range: 0 to 127.
Detune
amnt
Determines the amount of detuning for the
reflected signal.
Value range: 0 to 127.
Detune
speed
Cyclical detuning of the reflected signal. The
amount of detuning is defined via detune
amnt.
Value range: 0.0 to 20.0 Hz in 0.1 Hz steps.
