FOCUS [95] Focus controls the gains of the reflections depending on their distribution
in time. A high focus (+12 dB) boosts the early discrete reflections which
are located around the originating source (like on a stage) and creates a fo-
cusing effect. A low focus setting (–12 dB) causes a defocusing since the
late discrete reflections are emphasized. Since these usually come from the
back, the sound will appear to be coming from all directions when the
FOCUS control is turned down.
RVRB SND [96] Reverb send controls the amount of the signal that is being sent to the re-
verb bus or buses for this VSP panner. The default level is full OFF. By
adjusting this control, the audio source for this channel may be made to be
more “wet” or “dry”.
For additional information on reverb channels, please refer to chapters
3.4.4 and 3.6.6.
Notes: To disable the VSP panner and use a VSP channel with conventional pan-
ning, just set the AMBIENCE switch to Off, and PAN MODE to X-Y. The
panner will now function as a standard multi-format panner.
Since the VSP’s room simulation is based on a four-channel feed (front
L/R, surround L/R), better results in terms of distance impression and
phase information may be achieved when the center channel usage is re-
duced or even switched off.
