Section 7 — Effect Parameters TS-12 Musician’s Manual
8
DIFFUSION-2 Range: 00 to 99
Similar to and in series with DIFFUSION-1, this parameter controls lower-frequency ranges.
ATTACK Range: 1msec to 10.0 sec
Sets the ATTACK of the gated reverb once the incoming signal has reached the trigger level.
Generally the attack should be short and not set longer than the HOLD. This parameter should
not be used to achieve a reverse reverb envelope, because here the attack volume increases
whereas in the Reverse Reverb the attack volume accelerates.
DECAY Range: 0.20 sec to 100.0 sec
Controls the amount of time it takes for the reverberation to decay.
HOLD Range: 1 msec to 10.0 sec
Sets the amount of time that the reverb will hold after the retrigger and before the release. The
HOLD will begin again if retriggered.
RELEASE Range: 1 msec to 10.0 sec
Sets the amount of time after the HOLD has elapsed for the gated reverb to shut down.
Generally these times are very short.
SLAPBACK - TIME Range: 0000 to 0500 msec
Controls the delay time of an internal dry stereo signal to create a slapback. In general, the
SLAPBACK - TIME is greater or equal to the HOLD time to achieve a reverse effect.
LEVEL Range: 00 to 99
Adjusts the volume of the slapback (internal dry) signal. A value of 00 would eliminate any
audible slapback.
RETRIG THRESH Range: -96 to +00 dB
This parameter sets the level at which the gated reverb will retrigger. For a precise HOLD time
that begins at the onset of the incoming source, this parameter should be set higher than the
incoming signal to prevent retriggering. After the incoming signal reaches the trigger threshold,
the gated reverb is activated. Every time the signal reaches the retrigger threshold, the gated
reverb will retrigger causing the HOLD time to restart.
If the level of this parameter is set lower than the incoming signal, the gated reverb will continue
to retrigger. With a high DECAY level, this adds a cavernous quality to percussion instruments.
TRIG THRESH Range: -96 to +00 dB
Sets the signal level that triggers the gated reverb. When the incoming signal reaches this value,
it triggers (starts) the gated reverb. Higher values would require a stronger incoming signal. Set
this parameter as low as possible to work with your particular source, but not too low to cause
false triggering.
EARLY REFLECTION LEVELS (1 to 4) Ranges: -99 to +99
These parameters control four early reflection levels. Setting these levels to lower values will
produce a wetter sound.
L/R BALANCE Range: -99 to +99
Controls the left/right stereo balance of the gated reverb signal. A setting of -99 would offer hard
left, whereas a setting of +99 would offer hard right. A setting of +00 would place the reverb in
the center of the stereo spectrum.
