Amplitude Envelope and Normalisation
A normalisation parameter is provided to maximise the amplitude of the loaded IR.
The envelope controls provide the traditional synthesizer-style envelope shape controls to control
attack, hold and decay of the IR. The shape of the envelopes can be modified to affect the nature of
the speed of attack, decay and release. Versions of Reverberate prior to v1.403 used a linear shaped
envelope. Versions v1.403 and above allow exponentially decaying and logarithmic envelopes to be
defined with a parameter to control the degree of shaping applied (a horizontal slider below the
circular dials). Reverb tails may sound more natural when using an exponentially decaying shaped
envelope. Note that the plot is logarithmic in the vertical axis; on such a scale linear or log envelope
lines are curved and exponential lines are straight.
Automation Note
All parameters in this section can be controlled by/from the host and obey parameter automation
instructions, hence real-time modification of these parameters is possible. Since many IR
modifications require re-computation for each change requested (denoted by an orange egg timer
shown in the top left corner) it is not recommended to apply host based modulation to such
parameters as CPU usage will be considerably higher.
Copy / Reset
Next to the power button (top right) is an option to copy / push settings from IR1 into IR2 or from
IR2 into IR1 (depending which IR Editor is selected). This allows the user to configure one IR and
duplicate all (or elements of) the settings into the other IR container. A number of reset facilities are
also provided along with the capability to swap IR1 and IR2 settings (useful when chaining IRs in the
mixer).
