Diffusion 2 0 to 100 This parameter, similar to and in series with Diffusion 1,
performs the same way but controls lower frequency
ranges. Experiment with different levels between the
diffusion parameters to find the settings that are right
for your source.
Definition 0 to 100 Controls the rate at which echo density is increased with
time. Setting this parameter too high can cause the echo
density to build at a rate which exceeds the decay rate.
Phaser Mix Full Dry to Full Wet Controls the dry/wet mix of the phaser.
LFO Rate 1/1 Sys to 1/32 Sys, 0.0Hz
to 20.0Hz
Controls the rate of the modulation applied to the
phaser.
LFO Shape Triangle, Sine, Sawtooth,
Square, Asym, 16-Step, 8-
Step, 4-Step
Determines the shape that the LFO will use for pitch
modulation.
Phaser Depth 0 to 100 Controls the amount of modulation applied to the
phaser.
Phaser Center 0 to 100 This parameter controls the mid-point of the phaser.
Notch Depth 0% to 100% Controls the depth of the peaks and notches produced
by the phaser. This parameter should normally be set to
100%.
Feedback -99% to +99% Controls the amount of feedback applied to the phaser.
Positive or negative values will impart a different
tonality to the phaser effect, either accenting the peaks
or the notches.

LFO Rate 1/1 Sys to 1/32 Sys, 0.0Hz
to 20.0Hz
Controls the rate of the modulation applied to the delay
time of the chorus.
LFO Shape Triangle, Sine, Sawtooth,
Square, Asym, 16-Step, 8-
Step, 4-Step
Determines the shape that the LFO will use for pitch
modulation.
LFO Phase -180deg to +180deg Controls the relative phase between left and right LFOs.
Chorus Depth 0.0ms to 25.0ms Controls the amount of modulation.
Chorus Center 0.0ms to 50.0ms Controls the four delay times within the chorus.
Adjusting this parameter will change the tonal character
of the chorus.
Rev Mix Full Dry to Full Wet Controls the dry/wet mix of the reverb.
Decay 0.0sec to 10.0sec Controls the amount of time it takes for the
reverberation to decay away to a very low level after the
input signal stops.
HF Damping 100Hz to 21.2kHz Controls the rate of attenuation of high frequencies in
the decay of the reverberation. As natural reverb decays,
some high frequencies tend to get absorbed by the
environment. Increasing the value of this parameter will
gradually filter out (dampen) more and more high
frequency energy.
HF Bandwidth 100Hz to 21.2kHz The high frequency bandwidth acts as a low pass filter
on the signal going into the reverb, controlling the
amount of high frequencies that will pass into the effect.
The higher the setting, the more high frequencies are
allowed to pass.
Diffusion 1 0 to 100 Smears the input signal transients, to diffuse and
smooth the sound. Lower values will cause impulse
sounds to appear as a series of discrete echoes, while
higher values tend to increase the smear (smoother
sounding with fewer discrete echoes). We recommend
settings of 50 for starters.
