Reverb Time
Reverb Time is the mid frequency reverb time (in the frequency above Bass XOV
and below RT Hicut). As such, it is one of the primary controls affecting the length
of the reverb tail. It may be considered to model the reectivity of the walls in the
reverberant space.
The parameter most closely associated with Reverb Time is Size. A large room
size with a small Reverb Time can easily have the same decay time as a small
room with a large Reverb Time. Even though the two solutions may result in the
same reverb time, they will sound quite different from one another. The value
that is actually displayed is an approximate reverb time based on both of those
values. The actual time is also highly-dependent on other parameters as well as
the audio material.
Reverb Wander
This parameter (also known as just Wander), along with Reverb Spin, is used to
control the reverb randomizer. It controls the maximum size of randomizer steps,
and is expressed in a time value (typically milliseconds).
RT Hi Cut
This parameter, also known as Hicut or RTHC is a low-pass lter in the recirculat-
ing part of the reverb. It represents a frequency above which the tail dies away
more quickly. In some ways, it represents the opposite end of the scale from
BassRT, and may be considered an analog of air absorption. It is also closely tied
to the RTHC Damping parameter.
RtHC Damping
The damping parameter is closely tied to the RTHC parameter. It controls the
strength of the hi frequency absorption and has three values: Light, Normal, and
