25.6 Reverb and Echo

A click on FX in the View Options / Mixer Setup brings up the Output FX panel. Here all pa-

rameters for the effects Reverb and Echo are adjusted.

Reverb. Activated by the On button.

Type. Lists different reverb algorithms for selection. Available are:

¾ Rooms 1 - 4. Algorithm for room simulation with different tonal

colours. Room 1 and 2 sound dry and small, Room 3 and 4 brilliant

and a bit bigger.

¾ Envelope. Reverb effect in multitap technology, where the volume

course (envelope) is freely adjustable.

¾ Gated. Simpler version of the Envelope reverb for cut reverb

effects.

¾ Classic. Classic feedback-based reverb with comb filter,

generating both the typical sound and the very long reverb times.

General Settings

PreDelay. Delay of the reverb signal. Adjustable from the current buffer

size (some milliseconds) up to 999 ms.

Low Cut. High-pass filter before the reverb generation, removes low

frequency signals which should not cause a reverb sound. Adjustable

from 20 Hz up to 500 Hz.

Smooth. Softens the reverb effect, affects stereo width, density and

sound colour. Adjustable from 0 up to 100.

Width. Adjusts the stereo width of the reverb signal from 100 (stereo) to

0 (mono).

Volume. Adjusts the level of the reverb effects signal sent to the FX

return bus.

Special Settings for Room 1-4

High Cut. Low-pass filter after the reverb generation. A reduction of the treble often lets the

reverb sound more natural. Adjustable from 5 kHz up to 20 kHz.

Room Scale. Determines the size of the room, thus changing density and length of the reverb

effect. Adjustable from 0.5 up to 2.0.
