Parameters listed below may have shifted in final
implementation.
Master Decay (Reverb 1 to 4)
Range: 0.1 to 20s
Individual Decay parameters of the four reverbs.
This parameter is also available on the Reverb 1 to 4 sub
pages.
Pre Delay (Reverb 1 to 4)
Range: 0 - 300ms
Individual Pre Delay parameters of the four reverbs.
This parameter is also available on the Reverb 1 to 4 sub
pages.
Hi Decay (Reverb 1 to 4)
Range:20Hzto20kHz
Individual Hi Cut parameters of the four reverbs.
This parameter is also available on the Reverb 1 to 4 sub
pages.

Decay of both Reverb 1 and Reverb 2 is controlled with a
single handle. The same applies for the Pre Delay and HI
Decay parameters.
Introduction
Multiple mono reverbs may often be more useful than
pre-configuredstructuresforstereo,5.1,6.1etc.TheM4
algorithm offers 4 discrete mono reverbs with 4 in and 4
outinoneEngine.
M4 reverbs can be used in multiple mono configurations,
where the effect has to end up in predictable places, or
combinedtocoverarbitrarymultichannelconfigurationslike
7, 10 or even 16 main channels with different settings, all
within one Reverb/System 6000 frame.
VSS in Mono
All VSS reverbs feature de-correlated diffused field
responses. Such structures are costly from a DSP and
memory point of view, but the benefits become obvious
if the mix-format is altered during reproduction, e.g. if
listeningtostereomaterialinmono,5.1inmatrixed
surround or stereo. The balance between wet and dry
signal remains the same, so a deliberately wet stereo mix

The individual reverbs in the M4 handle correlation in a
fullyflexiblemanner:Eachofthe4monoreverbscanbe
set to different modes, ensuring a de-correlated response
even if all parameters are set identically.
