Several options are offered which affect the
overall tonality and character of the Chamber
reverberation:
• Neutral – Exhibits a wide-range, flat
response for a natural reverberation tone�
• Clear – Reduces low end response to avoid
muddiness with a bass-heavy source signal�
• Smooth – Reduces mid-frequency response,
reminiscent of a “smile” EQ curve�
• Crisp – Exhibits a high-passed response, for
a very bright reverberation�
• Deep – Emphasizes mid-frequencies for a
reverberation with vocal qualities�
Using the Chamber Reverb...
When the sound of a Room type reverb is just not quite reflective enough,
but a Hall or Arena is too large, the Chamber type may just be the choice to
add some depth�
The Chamber can be useful on just about any instrument or even vocals�
Choose one of the Color options to best suit the desired reflection tonality�
For the mildest reverberation, try the Neutral Color option with lower
Decay and Mix values to place your instrument in a medium sized room
environment�
Try the Clear option and higher Decay and Pre-Delay for more dramatic
reflections�
The Smooth, Crisp, and Deep options, much as their names imply, offer
different shades of bottom and top end to allow the reverberations to blend
further in the background or come forward more brightly in the mix�
