TALKBACK Screen
There are no Utility functions on any of the TALKBACK screen’s tabs.
SHOW CONTROL Screen
Pressing the UTILITY button while on any of the SCENES screen’s tabs provides
an interface for copying, pasting, loading and saving dierent scenes in the
scene list. Adjust and tap the six push encoders to perform these functions. More
information can be found in the SHOW CONTROL section.
ASSIGN Screen

2.9 Internal Eects
The M32 contains over 60 internal eects that can be applied to each of the input
channels, either as inserts or as sends and returns. Access the internal eects by
pressing the EFFECTS button next to the Main Display. The functionality for each
of the eects is detailed below.
Hall Reverb
Classic Hall Reverb simulates the reverberation that occurs when sound is
recorded in medium- to large-sized convert halls. Use the Hall Reverb to give your
mix a lush , three-dimensional quality that will make your performance sound
larger than life. Inspired by the Lexicon Hall.
The PRE DELAY slider controls the amount of time before the reverberation
is heard following the source signal. DECAY controls the amount of time it
takes for the reverb to dissipate. SIZE controls the perceived size of the space
being created by the reverb eect. The DAMP slider adjust the decay of high
frequencies within the reverb tail. DIFF(usion) controls the initial reection
density. SHAPE adjust the contour of the reverberation envelope.
LO CUT and HI CUT function as Low- and High-Cut lters. BASSMULT multiplies
the bass frequencies and MOD SPEED adjusts the speed of the eect’s
modulation. SHAPE adjust the contour of the reverberation envelope.
Ambience
Ambience creates a customisable virtual acoustic space in which to place the
elements of a mix. Use Ambience to add warmth and depth without colouring
the direct sound. Inspired by the Lexicon Ambience Algorithm.
PRE DELAY sets the time before the reverb follows the source signal. DECAY
adjusts the time it takes for the reverb to completely dissipate. SIZE controls the
room size emulation. DAMPING controls the high-frequency decay within the
reverb tail. DIFFUSE controls the initial echo density. The level sets the volume
output of the aected signal. LO CUT aects the low frequency cut, allowing
lower frequencies to remain unaected by the reverb. HI CUT aects the high
frequency cut, allowing higher frequencies to remain unaected by the reverb.
MOD adjusts the level of reverb decay modulation. TAIL GAIN adjusts the volume
of the reverb tail.
Rich Plate Reverb
Rich Plate Reverb was originally created by sending a signal through a transducer
to create vibrations on a plate of sheet metal which were then picked up as an
audio signal. Our algorithm simulates that sound with high initial diusion and a
bright-coloured sound. Inspired by the Lexicon Plate Reverb.
The PRE DELAY slider controls the amount of time before the reverberation is
heard following the source signal. DECAY controls the amount of time it takes for
the reverb to dissipate. SIZE controls the perceived size of the space being created
by the reverb eect. The DAMP slider adjust the decay of high frequencies within
the reverb tail. DIFF(usion) controls the initial reectiondensity.
LO CUT and HI CUT function as Low- and High-Cut lters. BASSMULT multiplies
the bass frequencies and MOD SPEED adjusts the speed of the eect’s
modulation. SHAPE adjust the contour of the reverberation envelope.
The SPIN parameter sets the amount of random modulation for the reverb tail.
The parameters Echo / EchoFeed set the parameters of a feedback delay at
the input of the reverb (independant for both input channels). Echo sets the
delaytime and EchoFeed the amount of feedback (positive or negative). This
allows to further increase the reection density of the reverb.
Room Reverb
Room Reverb simulates the reverberation that occurs when sound is recorded in
a small room. When you want to add a bit of warmth and just a touch of reverb,
the M32’s Vintage Room breathes life into close-miked guitar and drum tracks.
Inspired by the Lexicon Room Reverb.
