guitars, vocals, keyboards and other instruments.

instruments.

and other instruments.

PLATE 2: An emulation of vintage plate reverb with bright, slightly tinny tonality and a medium-length decay.
PLATE 3: A short, bright plate reverb effective for creating subtle spaces.
MODULATION EFFECTS
CHORUS:
A complex, 6-voice chorus ensemble effect with short delays often referred to as a "Chorus / Doubler". Discrete
stereo signal path. Slow and watery.
FLANGE: Classic stereo flange: a slow, slightly metallic sweep with a discrete stereo signal path.

MULTI EFFECTS
CHORUS – ROOM 1:
Room reverb into a slow flanging modulation creates a spacey effect.
CHORUS – ROOM 2: Fast modulation provides a dramatic chorus effect in a small room for a very lush reverb sound
with a discrete stereo signal path.
BYPASS: Bypasses the effects processor – no effects will be heard.
