True Stereo
Impulse responses recorded as true-stereo files allow you to create a very realistic impression of
the corresponding room.
REVerence can only process true-stereo impulse response files with the following channel
configuration (in exactly that order): LL, LR, RL, RR.
The channels are defined as follows:
Channel The signal from this source… …was recorded with this
microphone
LL left source left microphone
LR left source right microphone
RL right source left microphone
RR right source right microphone
NOTE
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).
REVerence automatically works in true-stereo mode if 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
