🠚 REVERB DRY/WET KNOB AFTER 13 O’CLOCK
FW V2.0
:
shimmered signal is added from turning that knob after the noon till full CW position.
🠚 ROUTING + FREEZE BUTTON: switches the reverb to the REVERSE
algorithm, particularly useful for obtaining whooshing sounds by processing kicks,
snares, pads, vocals and so on, giving you an extra dimension of movement.
🠚 FREEZE BUTTON: freezes the reverb creating an infinite recirculation in
the feedback loop, which is reminiscent of what called a ‘wall of sound’ . When
REVERSE REVERB is activated (see above), FREEZE button (23) activates and
deactivates LOOPER for the delay (recirculating delay’s audio buffer) instead of the
reverb’s freeze.
🠚 NOTE
FW 1.01
: when switching from Reverb with FREEZE on to Reversed reverb
and vice versa, the recorded buffer will be cleared and you will be returned to
normal NON-FREEZE states.
DYNAMICS SHAPING
In order to tame our signal at the end of the main processing chain we have the
following dynamics blocks: COMPRESSOR and SIDECHAIN ducking envelope.
COMPRESSOR
One-band peak stereo compressor controlled by a single knob (32), from none to
light to heavy compression settings with pre-defined and manually tuned values to
fit various music styles for best performance. Compressor behavior varies on the
audio material and music taste. We recommend setting around 12 o’clock for
ambient/pads and full clockwise setting for obtaining snappy drums.
SIDECHAIN DUCKING
Sidechain ducking ‘compression’: this is the last stage in the audio chain before the
final post-VCA VOLUME control (34). The sidechain envelope is triggered using the
SIDECHAIN TRIG. INPUT jack (29). Its release time is set with the SIDECHAIN
knob (30) . Its depth of ducking is set by holding the ROUTING button while turning
that SIDECHAIN knob (30).
