Title

Description

Example of its use

1

BRIGHT ROOM

This room has a bright tone with lots of scattered 
refl ections to simulate harder, more refl ective 
surfaces. 

Useful on vocals that require a brighter re-
verb to cut through the mix, or for giving 
acoustic instruments a livelier vibe. 

2

WARM LOUNGE

This preset features a medium sized room/lounge 
sound, with just enough enhancement of the lower 
mids to produce a warm tone. 

Useful for vocals on songs that require 
a larger, more “wet” sound, or for giving 
dimension to bright horns without adding 
harshness. 

3

SMALL STAGE

This preset simulates the sound of a small concert 
stage, with a medium reverb time and reverberant 
space. 

Useful for vocals or guitars in fast paced, 
high-energy songs that call for a “live” 
sounding reverberation.

4

WARM THEATER

This reverb has a warm bodied tone and medium 
long reverb time to simulate the live acoustics of a 
theater space. 

Perfect for vocals, drums, acoustic and 
electric guitars, keyboards, and more. 

5

WARM HALL

This reverb simulates the sound of a spacious, 
yet cozy, heavily draped and carpeted concert hall 
with an especially warm tone. 

Perfect for adding natural concert hall 
ambience to close-mic’ed orchestral 
instruments. 

6

CONCERT HALL

This hall reverb is characterized by its large, spa-
cious sound, long pre-delay, and vibrant tone. 

Adds life to acoustic instruments and 
vocals from solos to full-on symphonies 
and choirs. 

7

PLATE REVERB

This preset emulates vintage mechanical rever-
beration that was generated with a metal plate. 
Its sound is characterized by lots of early refl ec-
tions and no pre-delay.

Perfect for thickening percussive instru-
ments, such as a snare drum, or tight 
vocal arrangements.

8

CATHEDRAL

This reverb emulates the extremely long tails, 
dense diffusion and long pre-delays and refl ec-
tions that would be found in a very large, stone 
walled house of worship. 

Gives amazing depth to choirs, wind 
instruments, organs, and soft acoustic 
guitars. 

9

CHORUS

This preset provides a soft, ethereal sweeping 
effect that is useful for thickening and for making 
a particular sound pop out of the mix. 

Perfect for enhancement of electric and 
acoustic guitar and bass, or to add a dra-
matic effect to vocals, particularly group 
harmonies and choirs.

10

REV

This preset perfectly combines the chorus effect 
above with a large, roomy reverb. 

This lets you both thicken your sound 
with the chorus effect while adding 
warmth and spaciousness thanks to the 
smooth reverb.

11

DOUBLER

This effect simulates the sound of a vocal or 
instrument being recorded twice (double tracked) 
on a multi-track recorder. (50MS)

Provides a vibe that is similar to chorus 
without the subtle swirl. 

12

TAPE SLAP

This effect provides a single, relatively rapid delay 
of the original signal, with the added warmth that 
vintage tape-based echo units provided. (180 MS)  

Often used on vocals for a 1950’s era feel, 
or on guitars for a surf-type tone. Often 
used by people whose favorite number is 
12.

14
15

DELAY 1  (300MS)
DELAY 2  (380MS)
DELAY 3 (480 MS)

These delay presets provide around three repeats 
of the original signal. The default delay time for 
each preset is shown in ms - the smaller the time, 
the faster the delay.  

These work best with full, up-beat music 
like rock where the delay needs to cut 
through the mix. 

16

DLY 
(250MS)

This effect combines the warm theater reverb ef-
fect with the echoes of the 3-repeat delay effect. 

Perfect for thickening vocals while adding 
dimension, it can also be used as a spacey 
effect on electric guitars.
