Dierent textures can be achieved by adjusting the EQ, decay, and modulation rate/depth controls.
Infinite sustain will build up to saturation, creating a noisy, distorted, modulated texture. Each reverb
algorithm sounds dierent, and they can be shaped using modulation and EQ. When the footswitch is
released, the reverb will decay out naturally.
Using dynamic ducking infinite sustain will allow new notes to enter the reverb, while ducking the reverb
output so that the notes are audible. Expansion will emphasize louder notes and de-emphasize quiet
notes. See "Dynamics" on page 15 for more information.
Drone Mode
The SHIFT button can be used to lock on reverb hold, creating an atmospheric drone. This works with
any of the reverb hold modes:
1. Press and hold the PRESET/[∞] or ON/[∞] footswitch to engage reverb hold.
2. Press and hold the SHIFT button.
3. Release the PRESET/[∞] or ON/[∞] footswitch.
4. Release the SHIFT button.
To turn o drone mode, press the same footswitch once.
HI / LO Response
The HI and LO controls adjust the high- and low-frequency response of the reverb, respectively. This is
also known as reverb damping. 3:00 is flat, as shown in the diagram below.
From approximately 5:00 to 9:00, the LO control acts as a highpass filter and the HI control acts as a
lowpass filter. As the knobs are turned clockwise, the cuto frequency moves lower and higher, respec-
tively. So the reverb starts out with a narrow frequency band and then opens up.
Above 9:00, the controls act as shelving filters to adjust the high- and low-frequency decay of the reverb.
Above 3:00, there is a slight boost. From 9:00-3:00, the HI knob approximately matches the response of
the Context 1 damping control, except that the direction is reversed.
