Plate Reverb
Plate reverbs are famous for their smooth reverb tails. They have long been used to add color and brightness to a
natural reverb, or in conjunction with other reverbs. Higher frequencies tend to move forward, in front of the reverb
tail, while longer frequencies tend to linger.
P
RE
-D
ELAY
refers to the time offset between the original sound and the onset of the reverb tail. Lengthening pre-
delay time will retard the beginning of the reverb tail, thus providing a bit more space for a voice or an instrument.
Pre-delay times set too long can result in an unnatural sound.
Range 0 ms to 1000 ms

IME
(RT)
is the time it takes for the sound pressure to decrease by 60 dB, which is effectively the end of
the reverb tail.
Range: 0.1 second to 20.0 seconds

FREQUENCY DAMPING
)
controls the decay time of low frequencies in the reverb, relative to the
Reverb Time value. Higher settings yield spaces that are warmer and roomier, while lower RT Low settings tend to
result in spaces that are more articulate sounding. Range: x1.5, x2.0, x3.5
