Introduction
NonLin is an Effect Reverb with controllable Envelope,
Attack, Hold and Release. It is capable of generating
compact Vocal Ambience, dramatic eighties drum and
percussion sounds, Reverse Reverb or completely new
and twisted effects. Nonlin also does classic Gated Reverb,
but because it doesn’t need to be triggered, it can be used
on all sorts of program material.
The eighties with a Twist
Compared to effect Reverbs from the past, Nonlin features
longer and more diffused response with a higher resolution,
but classic, low density processing is also available.
However, there is more to updating a classic than free
Envelope, selectable response and higher resolution.
NonLin also features a Twist parameter, which radically
alters the sound, sometimes in weird ways. Adding Twist
may not always be pretty, but the parameter truly is a new
spice included to spark imagination and storytelling, and
which can be used to add character to any source of a mix.

Pre Delay
Range: 0 - 500ms
Pre Delay offsets the Output and timing of the Envelope
Generator. It is typically used to obtain depth and definition
in a mix, or align the effect with a musical beat. Delays
in the 10-40 ms range can be considered for percussive
sounds, while dense vocal slap effects could use 70-150
ms of Pre Delay.
Attack
Range: 0 - 500ms
Sets the Attack time (= build up) of the Reverb Envelope.
Max. range for this parameter depends on the Hold
and Release settings.
Hold
Range: 0 - 500ms
Sets the Hold time (= fully open time) of the Reverb
Envelope. For a typical eighties style response, Hold
should be set at 60-120 ms.
Max. range for this parameter depends on the
Attack and Release settings.
Release
Range: 0 - 500ms
Sets the Hold time (= Decay) of the Reverb Envelope.
For a typical eighties style response, Release should be
set at 0-100 ms. The most gated and unnatural effect is
obtained at short Release settings.
Max. range for this parameter depends on the
Attack and Hold settings.
Reverb Style
Selects the basic Reverb Style subjected to the Envelope
and Twist modifications. The Style parameter should be
seen as an algorithm selection inside the algorithm.
Different Styles have different features with regards to
density, diffusion type, spectral response, stereo image etc.
Choose one that suits your program material.
