V-VERB PRO REV2496

The effect of an abruptly ending, dense decay is in this case

achieved  without  the  disturbing  quality  of  the  level-dependent

noise gate. This way, entire drum sets can be adjusted together,

giving your mix amazing density.

The 

ATTACK

 parameter (EDIT page 1) influences the density

of the reflections at the beginning of the reverb tail. The lower

the value, the more abrupt the increase. 

DENS

 (density) defines

the  echo  density  of  the  reverb  tail  before  it  is  abruptly  cut  off.

The functions of the remaining parameters are identical to those

of the ambience effect.

This algorithm simulates a reverb tail played backwards.

RISE

 (rise time) on the first EDIT page determines the steepness

of the reverb tail curve before the abrupt end of the reverb tail.

The parameters 

LO CUT

HI FREQ

 and 

HI GAIN

 control the

filter section located ahead of the actual reverb effect.

BASS

  (bass  multiply)  controls  the  reverb  time  for  the  bass

(depending on the 

DECAY

 time); with 

BASS F

 (Bass Frequency)

you  control  the  upper  cut-off  frequency  of  the  low-frequency

reverb  segment.

4.5 Delay

Here you have an extensive delay that lets you create a vast

array of interesting reflection patterns. The input signal’s highs

and lows can be adjusted using the shelving filter, whereby you

can  simulate  the  sound  of  old  “vintage  delays”.  As  the  effect

routing  indicates,  this  algorithm  consists  of  two  independent

stereo delays, whose parameters can be individually adjusted.

Fig. 4.5: Effect design of delay algorithm

DL1 DL2 FDB

The 

DRY

 and 

FX LVL

 (effect level) parameters control the mix

ratio. 

DRY

 determines the level of the direct signal, while 

FX LVL

controls  the  effect  volume.

A 2-band equalizer (EQ) is located ahead of the stereo delays.

LO  FREQ

  (low  frequency)/

LO  GAIN

  (low  gain)  determine  the

frequency and the level of a bass filter, and 

HI FREQ

/

HI GAIN

control the treble level.

The  parameters  for  delay  1  are  adjusted  on  this  page.  The

PREDLY

 (pre delay) parameter controls a separate delay that is

not part of the feedback loop. 

DELAY 1

 (delay time) determines

the delay time within the feedback loop. Very interesting effects

can  be  created  through  this  partition.  With 

FEEDB

  (feedback

amount), you can adjust the degree of feedback. Negative values

produce  reverse-phase  feedback.

Just like in real physical spaces, the upper frequency range is

dampened  during  decay.  The 

DAMP

  (dampening  frequency)

determines  the  frequency  at  which  dampening  begins.  The

decay time for lower frequencies is adjusted using 

BASS

 (bass

multiply), which is a factor that refers to the decay time adjusted

using 

DECAY

.

LO CUT

 (low cut filter) determines the frequency of the high

pass  filter  located  ahead  of  the  low  cut  filter. 

HI  FREQ

  (high

frequency)  and 

HI  GAIN

  (high  gain)  adjust  the  frequency  and

the lowering of the shelving filter for the high frequencies (treble).

DIFF

 (diffusion) determines the reflection density for the reverb

tail. A low value provides higher transparency, and higher values

create a softer, more dense reverb tail.

The modulation of the reverb tail can be adjusted using 

MTYPE

(modulation type), 

MDEPTH

 (modulation depth) and 

MSPEED

(modulation  speed):  LINEAR  creates  static  modulation,  while

RAND produces random modulation. 

MDEPTH

 controls modulation

depth, and 

MSPEED

 controls modulation velocity.

The 

BAL  1-4

  (stereo  balance  1-4)  parameters  control  the

stereo balance of the four delays, and the 

GAIN 1-4

 parameters

control their volume.

With 

DELAY  1-4

,  you  can  adjust  the  delay  time  of  the  four

delays. With 

ER DIFF

 (early reflections diffusion), you can adjust

the diffusion degree for the delays. Value 1 lets individual delays

be clearly audible, while value 30 produces the greatest density.

4.4 Ambience, gated reverb, reverse reverb

Even though these three effect types are based on the same

algorithm, their sound characteristics could not be more different.

Fig. 4.4: Effect design for ambience, gated reverb and

reverse  reverb

Ambience completely violates the rules of physics! It can create

the  vastness  of  large  rooms  without  letting  the  sound  “perish”

due to a long reverb tail. This effect is particularly well suited for

lending more assertiveness to solo instruments and voices.

DRY

  controls  the  level  of  the  direct  signal,  while 

FX  LVL

controls  the  effect  volume.  Together,  they  determine  the  mix

ratio, provided mix mode is set to INTERNAL.

SIZE

 (reverb room size) determines the size of the simulated

space that has an affect on the maximum decay time (adjusted

using 

DECAY

). With 

PREDLY

 (reverb predelay), you can delay

the  point  at  which  the  reverb  tail  engages. 

DIFF

  (diffusion)

determines the reverb’s density. 

SPREAD

 (spread of reverb tail)

influences the distribution of the reverb tail. The higher the value,

the less linear the distribution.

You can adjust the equalizer parameters: 

LO CUT

 determines

the frequency of the high pass filter, 

HI FREQ

 and 

HI GAIN

 adjust

the frequency and the lowering of the shelving filter.
