Plate Reverb
The Plate is a rich, fast-building reverb that creates depth without early
reflection cues to a specific environment� The Tone knob and Low End
parameter are simple but powerful frequency-shaping tools

Voice
VOICE
MX
Classic
Offers a choice between two different Plate
voicings, which specifically affect the currently-
selected Small or Large - Size parameter:
• MX
• Small - A nicely balanced response with
a smoother top end� Like an analog plate,
offers reduced headroom and subtle tube
saturation�
• Large - Like an ideal digital plate, offers an
immediate buildup up to maximum density
with minimal coloration�
• Classic
• Small – A splashy, ringy reverb with
reduced low end�
• Large - A lush, smooth reverb with less
“zing” compared to the MX voice�
