Parameters
The reverb effect has the following parameters:
Size: Defines the size of the room (or the system for the plate and
spring). With some low "size" settings, you can also reduce the
distance between the individual reflections. This allows resonance to
develop (accentuated frequency ranges), which can sound
oppressive if the reverb sustain is too long. The proper size for each
instrument can be gauged by taking into account the interplay
between the room and the resonance.
Time: Reverberation time. This controller lets you define how far the
echo will be absorbed, i.e. the time for the reverb to die away.
Turning this knob to the left minimizes the time. You will then only
hear the first reflection. Turning the knob to the right minimizes the
absorption, and therefore results in a long sustained reverberation.
Color: Within certain limits, you can influence the sound characteristic
of the effect. The effect of this controller depends on the used preset.
In rooms, "color" controls the dampening of the highs in the reverb
(from dark to bright) as well as pre-filtering of the signal. The
controllers for plate and spring presets also determine the dampening
of the basses.
Mix: This controller sets the mix ratio between the original and the
edited signal. For rooms, you can quite easily move a signal further
into the room by increasing the amount of effect. The last four
presets are intended for use in an AUX channel of the mixer and are
set to 100%.
Presets
The presets are primarily sorted by instruments, but you can (and
should) choose which preset you want to use for which instrument.
Delay
This effect is like an echo which delays the signal and repeats it.
Delay: This sets the period of time between the individual echoes.
The more the control is turned to the left, the faster the echoes will
follow each other.
Feedback: This adjusts the number of echoes. Turn the dial
completely to the left, there is no echo at all; turn it completely to the
right and there are seemingly endless repetitions.
