Early Reflection
The Early Reflection effects create the early reflections that are an important element in
determining the qualities of an acoustic environment. Using the Early Reflection Time parameter
you can create a variety of effects, such as sound thickening and echo-like reflections.
10: Early Reflection 1
Early reverb reflections are a crucial element of naturally occurring reverb. They transmit details
such as room size, distance, acoustic damping, etc. This effect emphasizes the low frequency
range, and is ideal for percussive sounds such as drums.
11: Early Reflection 2
This effect is similar to Early Reflection 1, although, the level of the early reflections change over
time in a different way.
12: Early Reflection 3
This effect applies a reverse envelope to the early reflections. This produces an effect that is similar
to playing a tape backwards, and it is ideally to sounds that have a fast attack such as crash
cymbals.
For effects 10 to 12, dynamic modulation (16C) can be used to control the DRY:EFF balance.
