The Presets
MA: B13P7 “U”CHAMBER MB: B15P2 GUIT SHIFT
This preset runs 40% of a reverb effect into a pitch shift program. The remaining 60% of the reverb
effect bypasses the pitch shifter, and appears at the stereo output. Modify BMIX to even lesser values
if you want to bypass more of the pitch shifter. If BMIX is set to all wet, the reverb will be mono
(because the Pitch algorithm is mono in-mono out).
MA: B13P7 “U” CHAMBER
This preset is shaped liked an upside down “U” with the speaker on top of the wall and a microphone
on either side of the wall. The SoftSlider controls the Mid Rt.
MB: EB: B15P2 GUITAR SHIFT
This preset offers a medium amount of micropitch shift(-14c), along with a small amount of
recirculating predelay. Actually, the glide pitch parameter (GLD) is patched to the LFO running in the
Setup. The LFO causes the GLD to glide between -14c and -+7 cents. If you turn off the LFO on Setup
page 4 then return to program edit and move the GLD parameter to -21c, the preset becomes
raunchy sounding on “beefy” guitars.
P129 CC: PCH->REV SoftSlider BMIX 50
MA: B15P7 SKY DOWN MB: B13P3 DRUM CHAMBER
This Setup links a tunneling-downward pitch program into a great sounding reverb. Play around with
BMIX which is attached to the SoftSlider for a different kind of effect.
MA: B15P7 SKY DOWN
This preset tunnels downward due to the liberal amount of delay feedback. If the effect is too heavy,
lower the feedback amount. No SoftSlider patches.
MB: B13P3 DRUM CHAMBER
Good starting point for acoustic drums. This preset is slightly larger than the standard chamber, but
has less Diffusion. Rt is set to 1.0 second at mid frequencies. No SoftSlider patches.
P130 CC:REV->COMP SoftSlider THRESHOLD 50
MA: B13P4 GUITAR ROOM MB: B16P4 COMP 4 VERB
This preset changes the dynamics of the Guitar Room effect preset. If you play around with the
compressor preset, you will no doubt, get some strange effects. The SoftSlider is mapped to the
Threshold parameter in Mach B.
MA: B13P4 GUITAR ROOM
This is a big, wide-sounding room for your guitars. For heavy rock stuff, you might consider panning
“in” the returns. The room is a little bottom heavy for additional warmth. Could also work well on
vocals.
MB: B16P4 COMP 4 VERB
This compressor preset was made to work AFTER a reverb effect. The Slope ratio is less than 2:1
with 5dB of gain below the -14dB threshold. The release is set to work fast at 91 ms.
P131 CC:COMP->REV SoftSlider NONE
MA: B16P2 DRUMCOMP 3:1 MB: B13P8 BASEMENT
Squash it up a little before they (the drums) go into the Basement. If you opt to send pre-fader signals
to this Setup, you will need to modify BMIX to some mid value.
MA: B16P2 DRUMCOMP 3:1
This is a bit more aggressive, with 7dB of boost below the selected threshold. A quick release of 58ms
snaps up the volume. As with all compressor presets, Threshold is the critical parameter.
MB: B13P8 BASEMENT TIGHT AND SHORT.
Room size 15.8 meters, and the tonality is fairly resonant sounding. Almost trashy-sounding (low
diffusion), and will certainly get so if the Rt is made longer.
P132 CC:DLY->PCH SoftSlider LFO RATE 50
