LEVEL
ENVELOPE LEVELS (1 to 9) Ranges: 00 to 99
Control the output tap levels sequenced in time across the density from input to output.
Envelope Level 1 is tapped right after the diffusers and before the echoes (see the diagram). If
this is undesirable, set Envelope Level 1 to 0. Envelope Levels 8 and 9 are positioned at the very
end of the Density; setting these too high can cause excessive ringing. Envelope Levels 8 and 9
are also very dry. Set all nine tap levels to find the envelope for your application. We
recommend the average Envelope Level not to exceed a value of 45 to prevent overdriving these
reverbs.
DENSITY-1 Range: 00 to 99
Controls the number of echoes.
DENSITY-2 Range: 00 to 99
DENSITY-2 controls the number of echoes in a lower-frequency range. In general, to get the
smoothest sound, DENSITY-2 is usually less than the value of DENSITY-1.
DIFFUSION-1 Range: 00 to 99
Smears the input signal transients of higher-frequency ranges. Higher values are recommended
for smoother percussion. Very low values will give a highly repetitive echo-like sound.
DIFFUSION-1 and 2 exist within each diffuser block (see signal routing diagram).
DIFFUSION-2 Range: 00 to 99
DIFFUSION-2 is similar to DIFFUSION-1, but offers control of lower frequencies. In general a
setting of 50 can be considered an equal mix of dry/diffused sound. This setting is a good
starting point.
PRIMARY SEND Range: -99 to +99
Controls the level of the diffused input signal which is nearly instantaneous with respect to the
input. This signal is injected directly into the Density at the specified level.
L/R BALANCE Range: -99 to +99
Controls the left/right stereo balance of the gated reverb signal. A setting of -99 would offer hard
left, whereas a setting of +99 would offer hard right. A setting of +0 would place the reverb in
the center of the stereo spectrum.
HF - DAMPING Range: 00 to 99
HF DAMPING is located within the density. This parameter selects the amount of high-
frequency energy to be filtered out.
BANDWIDTH Range: 00 to 99
The high-frequency bandwidth parameter acts as a low-pass filter on the output signal,
controlling the amount of high frequencies that will be heard. The higher the setting the more
high frequencies are heard. This works the same way that a tone control would work on a guitar.
REFL-1 TIME Non Lin 1, 3 Range: 0000 to 0600 msec
Non Lin 2 Range: 0000 to 0085 msec
Controls the amount of time it takes for the first pre-echo to be injected into the Density. Pre-
echoes are the sounds that have been reflected back from the walls or other reflective surfaces.
