NONLINEAR
Parameter
Values Description
Mod Speed
MOD SPEED
Adjusts the modulation LFO speeds for both
the non-linear delay tap lengths and the late
reverb’s delay lines�
Knob Functions
For Nonlinear, the Decay and Pre-Delay knobs assume different controls
than for other reverb types:
DECAY
TIME: Sets the time of the nonlinear portion of the reverb�
PRE-DELAY
FEEDBACK: Adds feedback from the nonlinear portion of the
reverb back to the input�
Using the Nonlinear Reverb...
The Nonlinear generator feeds into the late reverb� The Pre-Delay knob
adds feedback around the nonlinear generator before it enters the late
reverb portion, producing repeating nonlinear shapes as you turn the knob
clockwise�
The Diffusion parameter softens the Nonlinear portion, and is useful with
longer Decay times� High Diffusion levels with short Decay times can result
in a “metallic” sound� Reduce the Diffusion parameter in these cases if
desired�
Short Decay times and no Feedback (Pre-Delay knob minimum) with
the Gate shape provides an interesting, level-independent take on the
traditional “gated” reverb�
Try high Feedback levels with some added Modulation to create trippy
ambient textures�
Maximum Feedback (Pre-Delay knob maximum) with the Gate shape will
produce a nearly endless wash of “multi-tapped” reverb� Try Decay at
800ms and Modulation at 10:00�
Try the Swoosh or Reverse shapes at very short decays (<100ms) for a
great slapback effect� Try minimum Diffusion for best results�
The Mod control varies the nonlinear generator tap lengths, as well as the
late reverb’s delay lines for an expanded experience�
