Record sliders remain as set by user. Fader and volume sliders are set to their factory default levels, and Presets are set to Neutral.

Help

This button launches the on-line help system. It contains detail descriptions of all features of the PSA2 interface and its operation.

Reverb

This button toggles the QSound Environmental Modeling (QEM) on or off. However, some games apply their own environmental effects, which are not controlled by this button. Environmental modeling uses reverb (reflected sound) and delay to create the impression that the listener is in a particular environment.

QEM provides a wide range of high-quality environmental modeling effects that are selectable from the Visualization panel. By selecting a default environment, you impose the effects of that environment for music, movies, or games that do not use the EAX feature.

PSA2 responds automatically to games that use the EAX and EAX2.0 commands. These games automatically control the selection of environments (regardless of what is selected from the Visualization panel) to match various scenes and locations, and change these selections as
