THE BLOCKS
69
Room Size
Sets the size of the room that the initial room reflections
emulate.
It automatically changes the length of the Predelay (the time
until the first reflection appears) and the Decay start (the time
where the Decay tail of the Reverb starts).
The Predelay and the Decay start can be individually adjusted
to another length in the Room and Decay section of the
algorithm.
Box - Tiny - Small - Medium - Large - XL
The sizes: Box, Tiny are patterns emulating extreme room
sizes.
Reverb level
Adjusts the combined Room level and the Decay level, and
should be seen as a master level.
The Room level and the Decay can be individually adjusted
to another relation in the Room and Decay section of the
algorithm. Range +/-50.
High color
Sets the treble color of the decay. When Color in the Room
section of the algorithm is set to Auto, it also controls the
treble factor of the initial room reflections.
Wool - Warm - Real - Clear - Bright - Crisp - Glass
High factor
Emphasizes or reduces the character set by the High color.
Range +/-25.
Low color
Sets the Bass color of the Decay.
Thick - Fat - Round - Natural - Light - Tight - Thin - No
bass.
Low factor
Emphasizes or reduces the character set by the Low color.
Range +/-25.
Room parameters
Adjusts the level of the initial room reflections, which are
master controlled by the Reverb level.
With this control you can emphasize or reduce the initial
room reflection’s influence on the Reverb sound.
Range +/-50.
Color
Sets the tonal color of the initial reflections.
When set to Auto it is linked to High color
Auto - Wool - Warm - Real - Clear - Bright - Crisp - Glass.
Color Factor
Emphasizes or reduces the character set by Color.
Range +/-50.
Predelay
Allows adjustment of the predelay (the time until the first
reflection appears) which is automatically set when choosing
the Room size. Range +/-50.
Decay Level
Adjusts the level of the Decay, which is master controlled by
the reverb level.
With this control you can emphasize or reduce the decay
tail’s influence on the Reverb sound. Range +/-50.
Diffuse
Allows fine tuning of the density of the decay tails. It is set
automatically when choosing the desired Decay time. This
makes it possible to reduce flutter in the decay to an absolute
minimum. Range +/-25.
Decay Start
Allows adjustment of the Decay Start (the time where the
Decay tail of the Reverb starts), which is set automatically
when choosing the Room size. Range +/-50.
Mix
This parameter sets the mix relation between the dry (direct)
and the wet signal. If you are using FireworX as an insert
effect this means that your direct signal goes through the
FireworX.
In Level*
Controls the input level of the block.
Out Level*
Controls the output level of the Reverb block.
Simple Reverb
The Simple Reverb is based on the same algorithm as the
Advanced, but the number of parameters are reduced to 5.
This makes it possible for you to set up the Reverb easily and
quickly. The parameters available in the Modifier Matrix are
marked with an asterisk*.
Type
Sets the type of the Reverb, meaning the size and relationship
between Predelay, Early reflections and Decay automatically.
(See Advanced Reverb for further explanation).
Types: Room, Club, Hall, Church, Cathedral, Grand Hall,
