In "Expert" mode, the distances for the room & hall models
of the first eight reflections are displayed. The set "size" and
pre-delay are already included. These are combined left-
right values for a better overview.
Individual parameters of a model are displayed as a "tooltip" if you hover the
mouse pointer over a controller. You can deactivate these tips with the same
button in the display, globally if desired.
This state will be saved and is independent of the preset or the current audio
project.
The following concentrates on the available algorithmic models and focuses on
the individual parameters. Some apply to several models, in which case they
are only referred to once.
Room & Hall
The four available room models (room A/B & hall A/B) are quite complex.
Unlike the simple digital process, reverberation created by VariVerb Pro is not
simply produced by adding the echoes. Simple systems do not consider that
real rooms compress echoes with increasing reverb duration. VariVerb Pro
uses a network of reflections that very closely resemble natural processes.
The most important settings have already been set without opening "Expert"
mode. To make things complete, we will list all available parameters here:
 EQ low/high: Allows you to "pre-filter" the signal before adding reverb. The
filters have shelving characteristics. The trigger frequencies vary according to
the model type.
 Predelay: Determines the delay time for the actual reverb process. This
parameter is ideal for fine tuning in order to convey a feeling of "distance" or
"isolation".
