The included effect plug-ins
User content is a different matter, though. If you have
transferred your audio files to an external drive or a differ-
ent hard disk location on the other computer, REVerence
cannot access the impulse responses any more since the
old file paths have become invalid.
To access your impulse responses again, proceed as fol-
lows:
1. Transfer you audio files to a location that you will be
able to access from the second computer (i. e. an external
hard disk).
If you keep the files in the same folder structure as on the first computer,
REVerence will automatically find all files contained in this structure.
2. Transfer any REVerence presets or programs that you
need to the second computer.
If you are unsure where the presets need to be stored, you can find the
paths in the MediaBay (see the chapter “The MediaBay” in the Operation
Manual).
3. Open REVerence on the second computer and try to
load the preset or program that you want to work with.
The Locate Impulse Response dialog opens.
4. Navigate to the folder that contains your impulse re-
sponses. Click Open.
REVerence is now able to access all the impulse responses stored in this
location.
RoomWorks (Cubase only)
RoomWorks is a highly adjustable reverb plug-in for creat-
ing realistic room ambience and reverb effects in stereo
and surround formats. The CPU usage is adjustable to fit
the needs of any system. From short room reflections to
cavern-sized reverb, this plug-in delivers high quality re
-
verberation.
The following parameters are available:

The new path to these audio files has not been saved
yet. To make the files permanently available without
having to use the Locate dialog, you need to save
your programs or presets under a different name.
Parameter Description
Input – Lo Freq Determines the frequency at which the low-shelving filter
takes effect. Both the high and low settings filter the input
signal prior to reverb processing.
Input – Hi Freq Determines the frequency at which the high-shelving filter
takes effect. Both the high and low settings filter the input
signal prior to reverb processing.
Input –
Lo
Gain
Controls the amount of boost or cut for the low-shelving
filter.
Input – Hi Gain Controls the amount of boost or cut for the high-shelving
filter.
Reverb –
Pre-Delay
Controls how much time passes before the reverb is ap-
plied. This allows you to simulate larger spaces by in-
creasing the time it takes for first reflections to reach the
listener.
Reverb –
Reverb Time
Allows you to set the reverb time in seconds.
Reverb – Size Alters the delay times of early reflections to simulate
larger or smaller spaces.
Reverb –
Diffusion
Affects the character of the reverb tail. Higher values lead
to more diffusion and a smoother sound, while lower val
-
ues lead to a clearer sound.
Reverb –
Width
Controls the width of the stereo image. 100 % gives you
full stereo reverb. At 0
%, the reverb is all in mono.
Reverb –
Variation
button
Pressing this button generates a new version of the same
reverb program using altered reflection patterns. This is
helpful when certain sounds are causing odd ringing or
undesirable results. Creating a new variation will often
solve these issues. There are 1000 possible variations.
Reverb – Hold
button
Pressing this button freezes the reverb buffer in an infinite
loop (yellow circle around button). You can create some
interesting pad sounds using this feature.
Damping –
Lo
Freq
Determines the frequency below which low-frequency
damping will occur.
Damping –
High Freq
Determines the frequency above which high-frequency
damping will occur.
Damping –
Low Level
Affects the decay time of low frequencies. Normal room
reverb decays quicker in the high- and low-frequency
range than in the mid-range. Lowering the level percent
-
age causes low frequencies to decay quicker. Values
above 100
% cause low frequencies to decay more
slowly than the mid-range frequencies.
Damping –
High Level
Affects the decay time of high frequencies. Normal room
reverb decays quicker in the high- and low-frequency
range than in the mid-range. Lowering the level percent
-
age causes high frequencies to decay quicker. Values
above 100
% cause high frequencies to decay more
slowly than the mid-range frequencies.
Envelope –
Amount
Determines how much the envelope attack and release
controls affect the reverb itself. Lower values have a more
subtle effect while higher values lead to a more drastic
sound.
