The Reverb tab
The Reverb tab (Figure 10-28) provides access to
the UltraLite-mk3’s single, global reverb processor,
which provides high-fidelity reverberation and
graphic control over its parameters.
Figure 10-28: The Reverb tab.
Enabling reverb
Use the enable/disable button (Figure 10-28) to
turn the reverb processor on or off. Since reverb
uses considerable DSP resources, it is best to leave
it off when you are not using it.
Routing inputs, busses and outputs to the
reverb processor
The reverb processor is a single, independent unit
that provides stereo reverb. You can route multiple
signals to it from various points (sends) in the
CueMix FX mixer, but all incoming signals to the
reverb processor are merged and processed
together. The resulting stereo output from the
reverb can then be inserted into a mix bus or
output using stereo returns.
Reverb sends
The following signals can be sent to the reverb
processor via their corresponding sends (discussed
earlier in this chapter):
■
Mono or stereo inputs (Figure 10-3 on page 66)
■
Mix bus output (Figure 10-2 on page 64)
■ Outputs (Figure 10-6 on page 69)
Reverb returns
The stereo output from the reverb processor can be
sent to the following destinations via their
corresponding returns (discussed earlier in this
chapter):
■ Mix bus outputs
■
Outputs
■
The computer (via the Reverb Return bus)
Split point
The Split Point (Figure 10-28) prevents feedback
loops that would be caused by a signal being sent to
the reverb processor and then returned to the same
signal path.
Mix
When the Split Point is set to Mix , the returns in the
Mix bus tab become active and the sends in the
Output tab gray out. This allows you to send from
inputs and mixes and return to mixes and outputs.
