Program Matrix
A program is the combination of an impulse response and its settings. These include reverb
settings, EQ settings, pictures, and output settings. The program matrix allows you to load
programs or to view the name of the impulse response.
Program name
In the upper left corner of the plug-in panel, either the name of the loaded impulse
response file or the name of the program is shown. After loading an impulse
response, its number of channels and the length in seconds are displayed for a few
seconds.
Browse
This button opens a browser window showing the available programs. If you select
a program in the browser, it is loaded into the active program slot. To filter the list
of impulse responses by room type or the number of channels, for example, activate
the Filters section (by clicking the Set Up Window Layout button at the bottom left
of the window).
Import
Click this button to load your own impulse response files from disk. The files should
have a maximum length of 10 seconds. Longer files are automatically cut.
Program slots
Use these slots to load all the impulse responses that you want to work with in a
session. The selected program slot is indicated by a white frame. Used slots are
shown in a different color. Double-clicking an empty program slot opens a browser
window, showing the available programs. Clicking a used program slot recalls the
corresponding program and loads it into REVerence. If you move the mouse over a
used slot, the corresponding program name is displayed below the active program
name.
Smooth Parameter Changes
This button is located between the program slots and the Store/Erase buttons. If it
is activated, a crossfade is performed when switching programs. Leave this button
deactivated while looking for a suitable program or an appropriate setting for an
impulse response. Once you have set up the program matrix to your liking, activate
the button to avoid hearing artifacts when switching between programs.
Store
Stores the active impulse response and its settings as a program.
Erase
Removes the selected program from the matrix.
Programs vs. Presets
You can save your REVerence settings as VST plug-in presets or programs. Both presets and
programs use the file extension .vstpreset and appear in the same category in the MediaBay,
but they are represented by different icons.
Preset
A REVerence preset contains all settings and parameters for the plug-in, that is, all
loaded impulse responses along with their parameter settings and positions in the
