The Included Effect Plug-ins
Reverb Plug-ins
The channels are defined as follows:
Ö If your true-stereo impulse responses are only available as separate mono files, you
can use the Export Audio Mixdown function to create REVerence compliant
interleaved files (see the Operation Manual).
By default, REVerence automatically works in true-stereo mode when the plug-in is
inserted on a stereo track and you load a 4-channel impulse response.
Therefore, if you are working with surround files, that is, 4-channel impulse responses
recorded with a Quadro configuration (L/R, LS/RS), you need to insert the plug-in on
an audio track with a 4.0 configuration. On a stereo track these files would be
processed in true-stereo mode, too.
So how can you prevent REVerence from unintentionally processing surround files in
true-stereo mode? The answer is a “Recording Method” attribute that can be written
to the iXML chunk of the corresponding impulse response file. Whenever you load an
impulse response with a 4-channel configuration on a stereo track, REVerence
searches the iXML chunk of the file. If the plug-in finds the Recording Method
attribute, the following happens:
• If the attribute is set to “TrueStereo”, the plug-in works in true-stereo mode.
• If the attribute is set to “A/B” or “Quadro”, the plug-in works in normal stereo mode
and processes only the L/R channels of the surround file.
Ö You can use the Attribute Inspector in the MediaBay to tag your own impulse
response files with the Recording Method attribute. For more information, see the
Operation Manual.
Relocating Content
Once you have imported your own impulse responses in REVerence you can
comfortably work with them on your computer. But what if you need to transfer your
content to another computer, for example because you work sometimes with a PC
and sometimes with a notebook, or you need to hand over a project to a colleague in
the studio?
The factory content is not a problem since it is also present on the other computer. For
these impulse responses you just need to transfer your REVerence programs and
presets to be able to access your setups.
User content is a different matter, though. If you have transferred your audio files to an
external drive or a different hard disk location on the other computer, REVerence
cannot access the impulse responses any more since the old file paths have become
invalid.
