the original and natural characteristics of the source
material. If you’re looking for a sound with long decay
times the Concert Hall is excellent and you’ll get a
large and broad sound that is very distinctive.  

14 - Plate

Press Plate to select between the following Plate
types: Tin, Silver and Gold

Tin Plate
Recreates the plate reverbs used prior to the digital
era. The Tin Plate reformulates the sound of a large
metallic plate, and gives you a sound that you probably
heard on many recordings from the past. Use the Tin
Plate when you just want the pure and uncolored plate
sound. It is bright and has a diffuse quality that is
perfect for funky rhythm guitar patterns. 

Silver Plate
The Silver Plate algorithm is a luxuriously well-
tempered plate reverb, which gives you a perfect
balance between the Tin and Gold Plate reverbs. It’s
got all the qualities of a classic plate reverb, the right

amount of exquisite and gentle coloring with crystalline
brightness and subtle diffusion. Use this reverb for just
about anything, and especially when you want to add
that complete and personal ambience.

Gold Plate
We’ve boosted the full potential of the plate reverbs of
the past, and designed the Gold Plate algorithm to
reflect all the brightness, coloring and diffusion that the
original plate reverbs had to offer. Use this reverb
when you just can’t get “gold” enough on your sound.

15 - Specials 

Press Specials to select between the following special
reverb types: Stomp, Amb (ambience), and Mod
(modulated).

Stomp
Quite an extraordinary reverb type reproducing some
of the characteristics from contemporary stompbox
reverbs. This is not a smooth subtle reverb but may be
just what you are looking for if you need a reverb that
is different and can cut through.
