Reverb [REV]
Aside from distortion, no effect has been more important to the electric guitar than reverb. Since the dawn of
guitar amplification, guitarists in small spaces yearned for the sounds their amps made in a hall or large room.
Early simulators incorporated metal springs and plates, but as with delay processing, reverberation effects were
truly revolutionized by digital technology. The Axe-Fx II is one of the finest you are likely to have heard: realistic,
lush, and dense, with the ability to emulate real spaces, vintage springs, classic digital effects, and more.
Each Axe-Fx II preset can use two fully independent
Reverb
blocks.

Reverb X/Y Channel Switching
Each instance of the Reverb block stores two fully independent sets of parameters called
X
and
Y
. Selecting
between these allows you to change all block settings—instantly—at the touch of a switch or button (excluding
current
Bypass State
and any
Modifier
assignments). See X/Y Switching on p.
36
for more information.
Basic Parameters
TYPE
– Selects the reverb type. There are seven basic types and several variations. Changing the
TYPE
will set
values for other reverb parameters as well, but these can then all be freely modified manually.
Type
Notes
Room
Simulates an actual room. This is the type to use when you want the most natural,
realistic reverb. Also great on vocals and percussion.
Hall
Similar to the Room reverb but simulates a concert hall. It is a little less smooth and
has some response peaks, lending it a unique character. Use this when you want
your sound to stand out a little.
