Parameters for adjusting reverberant sound
Reverb Time
Reverb Time parameter adjusts the attenuation time of the
rear reverberant sound based on the time that about 1kHz
reverberant sound takes for 60dB of attenuation.
Reverberant sound attenuates faster as you decrease the
value. Reverb Time adjustment allows you to create a
natural reverberant sound, by setting the attenuation time
longer for a sound source or room with less echo, or
shorter for a sound source or room with more echo.
Reverb Delay
Reverb Delay parameter adjusts the time difference
between the beginning of the direct sound and the
beginning of the reverberation sound. The larger the value,
the later the reverberation sound begins. Increasing the
value of Reverb Delay allows you to create a reverberant
sound in a wider area for the same Reverb Time.
Reverb Level
Reverb Level parameter adjusts the reverberation sound
level. Increasing the value of Reverb Level makes the
reverbration sound level higher, which allows you to
create more echo.
