some reflections.
Based upon perceptual experiments, we have found that
reducing particular reflections is a method most useful
for optimizing the room response to a given microphone
placement. The 0% setting enables the full response,

a distance.
Note: 1st order reflections have hit one surface before
arriving at the listener, 2nd order reflections two surfaces
etc. High order reflections are often more diffuse than
low order ones. In System 6000 this effect is emulated
by assigning individual diffusion characteristics to each
reflection.Moreinformationabouthowtomakethemostof
