5.13.5 Reverb Synced
Unique reverb like effect. At note on the reverb tail from the previous note is nulled. This
feature is more obvious in monophonic mode. In polyphonic mode this reset of the tail
happen for each voice separately. It’s also more obvious with long reverb tails.
This effect not an usual reverb algorithm consisting of delay networks to simulate reflec
tions of real rooms. The reverb is part of the additive engine and it affects the amplitude
of the partials. So one specialty is that the reverb signal is pitched. It follows the pitch of
the voice. RAZORs reverb effects sound quite different in monophonic and polyphonic
mode as every voice has its own copy of the stereo effect. In polyphonic mode the reverb is
polyphonic too. That means with a new note the reverb tails in the other synth voices con
tinue to decay. In monophonic mode the reverb tail is monophonic too. Since 'reverb
synced' nulls the current reverb tail with each note on there is no overlapping of reverb
tails like in polyphonic mode. Which is very musical because the played melody 'gets thru'
even with very long reverb tails. So the reverb is not just an external effect to add some
'room' but it is an integral part of the synthesizer. Also the reverb tails is completely devoid
