The parameters are:
REVERB TYPE You may select from seven different reverb types - LARGE HALL, SMALL
HALL, LARGE ROOM, SMALL ROOM, GATED 1, GATED 2 and
REVERSE (the parameters change slightly for the two GATED and the
REVERSE reverb types - these are described separately).
PRE-DELAY This sets the time between the original sound and the onset of the reverb.
TIME This sets the time it takes for the reverb to die away.
DIFFUSION This sets the density or ‘smoothness’ of the reverb. Typically, this will be
set to maximum but there may be occasions when you want a more
‘fluttery’ or ‘echoey’ reverb type in which case DIFFUSION should be set
to a lower value.
NEAR This affects the amount of ‘agitation’ the direct sound will have on the
reverb decay and this has an effect on our perception of how close we
are to the direct sound. High settings give the impression of being closer
to the original sound whilst lower settings gives an enhanced sense of
distance.
ACTIVE Allows you to bypass the reverb effect
REVERB LEVEL Sets the output level of the reverb.
REVERB PAN Sets the pan/balance of the reverb effect
LF DAMPING This reduces the amount of low frequency signal in the reverb decay.
For a full sounding reverb, set a low frequency value but if you want a
thinner, more brittle sounding reverb, set a higher frequency.
HF DAMPING This reduces the amount of high frequency content in the reverb decay.
This simulates the effect that in a natural acoustic environment, high
frequencies tend to get absorbed and so the reverb decay gets
progressively duller as it decays.
