“Restoration” category.
Grungelizer
The Grungelizer adds noise and static to your recordings
– kind of like listening to a radio with bad reception, or a
worn and scratched vinyl record. The available parameters
are as follows:
Reverb plug-ins

RoomWorks SE
RoomWorks SE is a “lite” version of the RoomWorks re-
verb plug-in. This plug-in delivers high quality reverberation,
but has fewer parameters and is less CPU demanding than
the full version. RoomWorks SE has the following parame-
ters:
Parameter Description
Crackle This adds crackle to create that old vinyl record sound.
The farther to the right you turn the dial, the more crackle
is added.
RPM switch When emulating the sound of a vinyl record, this switch
lets you set the RPM (revolutions per minute) speed of
the record (33/45/78 RPM).
Noise This dial regulates the amount of static noise added.
Distort Use this dial to add distortion.
EQ Turn this dial to the right to cut off the low frequencies,
and create a more hollow, lo-fi sound.
AC This emulates a constant, low hum of AC current.
Frequency
switch
This sets the frequency of the AC current (50 or 60Hz),
and thus the pitch of the AC hum.
Timeline This dial regulates the amount of overall effect. The far-
ther to the right (1900) you turn this dial, the more notice-
able the effect.
Parameter Description
Predelay The amount of time before the onset of reverb. This al-
lows you to simulate larger spaces by increasing the time
it takes for first reflections to reach the listener.
Time Reverb Time in seconds.
Diffusion This affects the character of the reverb tail. Higher diffu-
sion is smoother while less diffusion can be clearer. This
emulates changing the types of surfaces in a room (brick
vs. carpet for instance).
High Damping
Amount
This affects the decay time of high frequencies. Normal
room reverb decays quicker in the high and low fre-
quency range than in the midrange. Lowering the damp-
ing percentage will cause high frequencies to decay
quicker. Damping percentage values above 100% will
cause high frequencies to decay longer than the
midrange.
Low Damping
Amount
The amount of damping applied to the low frequencies.
At 100%, no damping occurs. Values lower than 100%
increase the amount of damping, reducing low frequen-
cies over time. Values above 100% have the opposite ef-
fect.
Mix Determines the blend of dry (unprocessed) signal to wet
(processed) signal. When using RoomWorks SE in-
serted in an FX channel, you will most likely want to set
this to 100% or use the Send button.
