Reverb (Green) 213
 High Cut
High Cut is a static 1-pole filter that gradually smooths the high frequency content of the reverb, the further it is
turned to the left.
 High Decay
Simulates the high-frequency degradation over time in natural rooms and halls. The further it is turned to the left, the
more high frequency content is lost over time. While the impact of High Decay increases with time in the late reverb
reflections, High Cut affects all phases of the reverberation including the onset. Use both High Decay and High Cut
to sculpt the high frequency content of your reverb over time.
 Low Decay
While High Decay accelerates the decay of high frequencies in the reverb tail when turned more to the left, Low
Decay does the same to the low frequencies when turned more to the right. Low Decay at zero will let all low
frequencies decay as slow as the generic Decay Time is set, creating a natural reverb response. This is beneficial
for performances on a single instrument such as acoustic guitar, or a mix of a classic orchestra.
However, in a contemporary mix with drums and bass it is recommended to accelerate the Low Decay of the reverb
to maintain transparency in the mix. To support this aspect, an invisible low-cut filter is automatically established with
higher values of the Low Decay, that gently rounds off the low frequencies of the reverb onset.
 Low Decay & High Decay combination
Both of the decay controls allow a degree of control that goes far beyond what is needed for an authentic room
simulation. When you turn Low Decay up to the right quarter and High Decay down to the opposite setting, you will
notice a quick decline of both low and high frequencies, so that only a narrow resonance frequency remains. By
turning up the Decay Time control you can stretch the resonance decay to epic lengths.
