Magneto Reverb
More than just a reverb, Magneto is also capable of some old-school
tape delay, slapback, and patterned repeats� The Magneto reverb sets
up a multi-head echo with all heads on, while the Pre-Delay knob adds
feedback� The Diffusion parameter adds a new dimension of ambience,
smearing the response of the heads and blurring the line between delay
and reverb�

Parameter
Values Description
Diffusion
DIFFUSION
Controls the effect of diffusors on the magnetic
heads� At minimum there is no diffusion effect�
As the Diffusion parameter is turned up, the
heads are increasingly smeared, creating a
reverberated quality to the repeats�
Heads
HEADS

6
Selects the number of “tape machine” heads, 1
through 6� Fewer heads offer simpler, distinct
repeats, where more heads offer more dense
complex patterns, and washes�
The Heads settings also affects the Ping Pong
LEFT - RIGHT output pattern—see the "Ping
Pong" parameter description�
Spacing
SPACING
Even
Uneven
Affects the distance spacing between the heads�
• Even Spacing - Puts the heads at the same
distance from one another for equal delay
times�
• Uneven Spacing - Creates more complex,
less overtly rhythmic effects�
