HALion Sonic comes with a collection of high-quality studio effects. These effects are
described in detail below.
REVerence
REVerence is a convolution tool that allows you to apply room characteristics (reverb)
to the audio. By recording an impulse in a room, you get the characteristics of the
room. Convolution superimposes these characteristics to the sound. The result is a
very natural sounding reverb. Included with this effect is a collection of high-quality
reverb impulse responses.
Impulse Response
By selecting an impulse response you determine the basic sound character of the
reverb.
Reverse
Activate this to reverse the impulse response.
Predelay
This determines the amount of time between the dry signal and the onset of the
reverb. With higher predelay values you can simulate larger rooms.
Time
This controls the reverb time. At a setting of 100 %, the impulse response is applied
with its original length.
Size
This scales the size of the simulated room. At a setting of 100 %, the impulse
response is applied as recorded in the original room.
Level
Here you can adjust the level of the impulse response.
Equalizer
Activates the built-in three-band equalizer.
ER Tail Split
This sets the split point between the early reflections and the reverb tail.
ER Tail Mix
This sets the balance between the early reflections and the reverb tail. At a setting of
50
% the early reflections and the tail have the same volume level. Settings below
50
% raise the early reflections and lower the tail, as a result the sound source moves
towards the front of the room. Settings above 50
% raise the tail and lower the early
reflections, as a result the sound source moves towards the back of the room.
