For specific instructions on using presets within the host, consult the host application documentation. Presets use a standard
file format which allows them to be moved between a variety of platforms and host applications.
A file of ready-made X-verb presets are included in the plug-in installation. These provide starting points for a variety of
instruments and effects. To load SSL presets, click on the Load button and navigate as follows:

A-B Comparisons and Morphing
The A B button at the base of the screen allows you to load two
completely independent set ups and compare them quickly. When the
plug-in is opened, setting A is selected by default, as shown right. Pressing the A B button will switch between setting A and
setting B.
It is also possible to mix between the settings: Press the Morph button to the right of the A B button and use the slider to its
right to morph between A and B. The display to the right of the slider displays ‘(Disabled)‘ when Morph is off, and displays
the A to B ratio when Morph is on.
Every parameter is morphed with the exception of the Algorithm and the Size, which are taken from whichever setup is
indicated as active in the A B button.
Note that the Morph function is automatically deactivated when a parameter is moved.
Note also that automating Morphs will result in unpleasant artefacts if any time constants are different
between setups A and B
The Graph Display
The graph in the centre of the plug-in window displays the impact of the settings currently selected in the controls above and
below it. The row of buttons immediately above the graph (with ER [Early Reflections] and REV [Reverb] at their left-hand
end) determine what information is displayed, and also which controls appear beneath the graph.
The bar to the right of the Reverb Control label can be used to scroll and zoom the graph’s time axis: click and drag the
handles on either end of the scroll bar to zoom in and out, or click and drag the main scrollbar to scroll left or right. The graph
also auto-zooms to ensure that all of the important information remains visible.
The graph is interactive: move the grey nodes to adjust their associated parameters.
The parameters displayed in the graph are described on Page 60.
