These effects are created using different groupings of “eariy

refiections” — the first ciuster of refiections that occurs after the

direct sound but before the dense refiections that are known as
reverberation begin.

Early Reflection Pattern (TYPE): HALL/RANDOM/REVERSE/
PLATE

The TYPE parameter selects one of four different patterns of
early reflections. HALL produces a typical grouping of early

reflections that would occur in a performing environment

such as a hall. RANDOM produces an irregular series of

reflections that could not occur naturally. PLATE produces a

typical grouping of refiections that would occur in a plate

reverb unit. REVERSE generates a series of reflections that
increase in level — like the effect produced by playing a
recorded reverberation sound backwards.

Room Size (ROOM SIZE): 0.1 — 20

This parameter sets the time intervals between the early re­
flections — a feature of natural early reflections which is

directly proportional to the size of the room.

Liveness (LIVENESS): 0 — 10

Tiveness” refers to the rate at which the reflected sounds

fade. An acoustically “dead” room is simulated by setting this

parameter to zero. Increasing the value of this parameter
creates an increasingly “live” sound, simulating an increas­
ing area of reflective surfaces in the room.

Delay (DELAY): 0.1 — 400 milliseconds

The time delay between the direct sound of the instrument
and the first of the early reflections.

Low-pass Filter (LPF): 1 kHz — 11 kHz, THRU

Permits rolling off the high-frequency content of the early
reflection signal above the set frequency. The LPF is OFF

when set to THRU.

18. Delay Long

The stereo delay effect offers independently variable left and
right channel delays.

Left Channel Delay (Lch DLY): 0.1 — 500 milliseconds

Sets the time between the direct sound of the instrument and
the first repeat heard from the left channel.

Left Channel Feedback Gain (Lch F.B): -99% — +99%

Sets the amount of the left-channel delay signal fed back to

the input of the processor. The higher the feedback gain
setting, the greater the number of delayed repeats pro­
duced.

Right Channel Delay (Rch DLY): 0.1 — 500 milliseconds

Sets the time between the direct sound of the instrument and

the first repeat heard from the right channel.

Right Channel Feedback Gain (Rch F.B): -99% — +99%

Sets the amount of the right-channel delay signal fed back

to the input of the processor. The higher the feedback gain
setting, the greater the number of delayed repeats produced.

High Frequency Feedback (HIGH): xO.1 — xl.O

Controls feedback in the high-frequency range. The high-

frequency feedback is reduced as the value of this parame­
ter is decreased.
