User Manual

Frequency-independent Parameters
On the left side of the plug-in interface you find four controls (three faders and one knob).
(1) Predelay fader: Adjusts the initial delay between the original signal and the first reverberant
sound. The possible values range from 24 to 152 milliseconds. At higher values this can also
be used in many creative ways.
(2) Depth fader: Adjusts the apparent distance between the listening point and the source sig-
nal. The possible values range from 0 to 71. Increasing Depth creates a richer, fuller—but also
less focused—reverb. High values of Depth emphasize the “running reverberation” (the rever-
beration occurring while the music is playing), whereas lower values bring out the attack of the
sound.
(3) Modulation knob: Allows you to choose from four modes labeled Mode A–D. These modes
subtly modulate the reverb tail in various ways. This can lead to somewhat “unstable” phases
and pitches during the decaying phases while producing a warmer sound. Whatever mode is
selected here, the intensity of the modulation is controlled via the Intensity fader (4). From the
four modes, mode A has the smallest impact on the sound, while mode B, C, and D modify the
sound increasingly (in that order). The resulting changes in the reverberant sound are especial-
ly noticeable on very long decaying phases.
(4) Intensity fader: Adjusts the intensity of the modulation as selected with the Modulation
knob below. The possible values range from 1.00 to 3.00. At the minimal value, the modula-
tion is rather subtle. Increasing the Intensity value accentuates the slight phase and pitch var-
iations in the reverb tail.
Frequency-related Parameters
On the right side of the plug-in interface, another four controls (also three faders and one
knob) let you adjust parameters related to specific frequency bands. Indeed, the input signal is
dynamically split into two frequency bands (the low frequencies and high frequencies). Hence,
you can apply different reverbs to each band, and further modify the frequency content of the
processed signal.
(5) Bass fader: Adjusts the reverb time for the lower frequency band. The possible values range
from 0.60 to 70.00 seconds. Lower values can be helpful for example to focus the reverb on
higher frequencies while keeping the bottom clean. Higher values of Bass can create massive
reverb effects, and even reach never-ending reverb sounds!
