SA262 Ventris Dual Reverb Owner’s Manual

PLATE (4)
This authentic sounding reverb engine is a spot-on simulation of the highly diffuse effect synonymous
with vintage plate reverb units of the 50s and 60s. Like the True Spring engine, Bob Chidlaw was
relentless in crafting the perfect emulation of this beautiful and distinct sound. The critical
component of a plate reverb is a large plate of suspended sheet metal. Blasting audio into the face of
the sheet metal creates the beautifully lush and resonant tones found in countless classic recordings.
CONTROL 1: Bass – Find the description in the ROOM engine section.
CONTROL 2: Plate Size – Selects between three different plate sized: Small, Medium and Large.
In general, as the plate size gets larger the reverberations will sustain longer and develop
varying characteristics in the decay. Please note that this knob does not gradually increase the
size of the plate, rather the knob is split into three regions. As you turn the knob you may hear
the transition points when a new plate size is engaged.
OPTION FOOTSWITCH (TAPPING): Set Pre-Delay Time – See the description in the HALL L engine
section.
OPTION FOOTSWITCH (PRESS & HOLD): Reverb Hold – See the description in the ROOM engine
section.
LO-FI (5)
This reverb effect turns the lush and grandiose effect of reverb on its head and embraces destructive
elements like distortion and oversaturation. Turn up the ugly and create unique effects that add a
layer of nastiness to your sound.
CONTROL 1: Distortion – Adjusts the amount of grit on the wet signal. Turn this knob clockwise
to increase the amount of overdrive/fuzz added to the reverb tone. At the far right positions this
knob begins to summon the qualities of a fuzz pedal.
CONTROL 2: Mod Noise Depth – Adjust the amount of sporadic modulation applied to the wet
signal. Unlike the smooth and even Modulation found on many of the Ventris’s reverb engines,
the Mod Noise Depth knob adds an irregular, non-symmetric pitch modulation. This style of
modulation resembles the sound of a vintage tape delay that is possibly in need of repair.
