Parameters Used in the 960L Algorithms, Continued

dL>L,

Early or Reflection Delays. In many real spaces, distinct reflections and echoes are an

dR>R,

important part of the sound, so many of the 960L's reverbs have reflection delay and echo

dL>R,

paths with appropriate controls.

dR>L,

 

dLF>LF,

The Early or Reflection Delays set the delay time. For example, dLF>RS is the delay time in

dLF>LS,

a path from the Left Front Input, through the diffusor, through a delay of dLF>RS duration,

dLF>RF,

and finally to the Right Surround Output.

dLF>RS,

 

dLS>LF,

Each of these delay paths has its own level control. The level of the example delay path is set

dLS>LS,

by the related control LvLF>RS.

dLS>RF,

 

dLS>RS,

 

dRF>LF,

 

dRF>LS,

 

dRF>RF,

 

dRF>RS,

 

dRS>LF,

 

dRS>LS,

 

dRS>RF,

 

dRS>RS

 

EchoL,

Echo Duration. Some reflection delays have echo capabilities. These appear as part of the

EchoR,

input path; echoes are passed to the reverberators as well as the reflection outputs. Also,

EchoLF,

echo signal is fed back through the input diffusors. This means that each echo will be more

EchoLS,

diffuse and spread than its predecessor. The control EchoLS sets the duration of an echo

EchoRF,

(that is, a feedback path) on the Left Surround Input and FbckLS sets the amount of feedback

EchoRS

for that path. Any echo pattern set with EchoLS and FbckLS will be heard in the surround

 

reverb field and also in any reflection delay whose source is the Left Surround Input.

EchoMST

Echo Master Delay multiplies all echo delays by a percentage. This allows this single control

 

to scale a complicated echo pattern.

EDlyMST

Early Master Delay multiplies all reflection delays by a percentage. For example, if Left

 

Surround Delay is set to 24 msec and EDlyMST is at 50%, the actual Left Surround Delay

 

time will be 12 msec and that figure will appear on the display. This allows this single control

 

to scale a complicated reflection pattern.

ErlLvl

Early Level Master Control Multiplies all individually selected early reflection levels by a

 

percentage. This allows this single control to set the overall level of a complicated reflection

 

pattern.

ErlRoll

Early Rolloff controls the cutoff frequency of a 6dB per octave low pass filter on the output of

 

the early reflections.
