Ambience, or reverberation, is produced when sound energy is
reflected off room surfaces and objects. Using reverberation in
recorded program material gives the listener a sense that the material
is being performed in an actual room or hall. It is this similarity to actu-
al acoustic spaces that makes reverberation a useful tool in recorded
music. Reverb Parameters and their functions are as follows:

ting you want to use. There are ten available
