Reverb (tail)
Rev Type:
(Smooth, Natural, Alive) Adjust this parameter with the
Early Lev turned all the way off and the Rev Lev all the way
up. Change the type to get a feel for what each one sounds
like.
Diffuse:
(±50) This parameter gives you more or less diffusion than
the algorithm designer intended for the given Decay time.
For optimum performance the diffusion is automatically
adjusted behind the scenes whenever you change decay
times. This parameter gives you the added control to vary
the diffusion around this automatic setting.
RevBal:
(-100dB R, center, -100dB L) The left/right balance of the
Reverb tail. Allows you to offset the tail from the normal
center position.
Hi Cut:
(1kHz - 20kHz) Rolls off the top end as it enters the
Reverb tail. Used in conjunction with Hi Soften and
Hi Decay to “darken” a room.
Hi Soften:
(+/-50) Hi soften is a special filter used to “soften” the high
frequencies of Reverb tail. This is not a simple high cut filter
but a complex set of filters working together to remove
those frequencies that make a reverb sound “brittle” or harsh
sounding. Hi Soften is scaled/linked to the Hi Cut and
Hi Decay parameters.
Hi Decay:
(0.01 - 2.5) Multiplier for the frequencies above the Hi
Xover frequency. Example: If the main Decay parameter is
set to 2.0sec and the Hi Decay parameter is set to 1.5,
frequencies above the Hi Xover will decay for 3.0sec. On
the other hand if this parameter is set to 0.5 the decay time
above the
Hi-Xover point will be 1sec.
Hi Xover:
(1kHz - 20KHZ) Sets the frequency at which the transition
from the mid frequencies to the high frequencies takes place.
Mid Decay:
(0.01 - 2.5) The Ratio control multiplier for the mid
frequencies. This parameter is normally set to 1.0 as it is the
main parameter adjusted by the main Decay parameter. This
midrange Decay control would normally be omitted, however
TC Engineers felt you could use this parameter as a fine
adjustment tool to “tweak” a preset to sound just right
without having to adjust the master Decay parameter.
Mid Xover:
(200Hz - 2kHz) Sets the frequency at which the transition
from the low-mid to the mid frequencies takes place.
Lmid Decay:
(0.01 - 2.5) The Ratio control multiplier for the low-mid
frequencies.
Low Xover:
(20Hz - 500Hz) Sets the frequency at which the transition
from the low to the low-mid frequencies takes place.
Low Decay:
0.01 - 2.5) The Ratio control multiplier for the low
frequencies.
Lo Damp Freq:
(20Hz - 200Hz) Sets the Lo Cut frequency for the next
parameter, Lo Damp. Use these two parameters to take away
any objectionable low frequencies entering the Reverb tail
processor.
Lo Damp:
(-18dB - 0dB) Sets the amount of cut in dB. Used with the
previous parameter, Lo Damp Freq.
