Early parameter
Parameter range: -24 .5 to 0 .0 dB
Use the Early parameter to set the output level of
the “early reflections” part of the reverb algorithm .
■ Increase the Early parameter’s value to em-
phasize the definition of the simulated room .
■ Decrease the Early parameter’s value to set fo-
cus on the diffuse part of the algorithm . When
Early is set to a low value, the reverb effect will
mainly consist of the reverb “tail” .
Reverb parameter
Parameter range: -24 .5 to 0 dB
Use the Reverb parameter to set the Output level
of the diffuse field part of the reverb algorithm .
Decrease the Reverb parameter’s value to em-
phasize the early reflections and thereby the defi-
nition of the simulated room .
Dynamix Mode switch
Parameter settings: Off / Positive / Inverse
Dynamix is a unique feature inherited from the
legendary TC 2290 delay . Dynamix allows you to
control the level of the reverb via the dynamics of
the input signal . This creates a very vivid effect
that interacts with your style of playing and choice
of dynamics .
Using the Dynamix Threshold parameter (see be-
low), you can set a “level limit” for your input that
will help control the reverb level in two different
modes – Positive and Inverse .
Off setting
Disables the Dynamix Mode and gives you a reg-
ular Reverb setting as you know it .
Positive mode
When you set the Dynamix Mode switch to Posi-
tive and the level of the input signal exceeds the
Dynamix Threshold limit, the reverb will be damp-
ened. If the input signal falls below the Dynamix
Threshold limit, the reverb will return .
Inverse mode
When you set the Dynamix Mode switch to In-
verse and the level of the input signal exceeds
the Dynamix Threshold limit, the reverb will be
audible . If the input signal falls below the Dyna-
mix Threshold limit, the reverb will be dampened .
Dynamix Threshold parameter
Parameter range: -50 to 0 dB
This parameter is only applicable when Dynamix
Mode is set to Positive or Inverse .
The Dynamix Threshold acts as a “level limit” .
When the threshold is crossed, the reverb will
either appear or dampen in accordance with the
following parameters: Dynamix Mode, Dynamix
Damp, Dynamix Attack and Dynamix Release .
Dynamix Damp parameter
Parameter range: -60 to 0 dB
This parameter is only applicable when Dynamix
Mode is set to Positive or Inverse .
Use the Dynamix Damp parameter to set the at-
tenuation that will be applied to the reverb when
the input signal rises above (Positive mode) or
falls below (Inverse mode) the Dynamix Thresh-
old setting .
Dynamix Attack parameter
Parameter range: 0 to 1 .000 s
This parameter is only applicable when Dynamix
Mode is set to Positive or Inverse .
Use the Dynamix Attack parameter to set the at-
tack time (the build-up phase) of the Reverb En-
velope .
Dynamix Release parameter
Parameter range: 0 to 1 .000 s
This parameter is only applicable when Dynamix
Mode is set to Positive or Inverse .
Use the Dynamix Release parameter to set the
release time (the decay) of the Reverb Envelope .
The most gated and unnatural effects are ob-
tained using short Release settings . For a typical
eighties-style sound, Dynamix Release should be
set between 0 and 100 ms .
