Reverb Programs

VSS™3, VSS™Gate, VSS™FP, VSS™SR, C.O.R.E. and Rev 3.

These are the basic reverb algorithms in the M3000.

VSS™3 Reverb

The VSS Reverb is a multipurpose algorithm, that with the comprehensive amount of parameters in both the Early Reflection parts; the Reverb tail and the Modulation, makes it possible to tweak the sound in a lot of different directions. The user interface is split into two levels: Easy mode, which gives access to the most common parameters, and the Expert mode with additional parameters available.

Decay

(.01 - 20s) The Decay time of the Reverb. Usually associated with the time it takes the Reverb tail to decay 60dB. This is the overall Master Decay for the four band Decay parameters (found in the REVERB section below) which are multiples of this base Reverb time.

Early Lev

(-100dB - 0dB) The Output level of the Early Reflections. When Early Lev is set all the way off, the Reverb effect will consist entirely of Reverb tail.

Rev Lev

(-100dB - 0dB) The Output level of the Reverb tail. When Rev Lev is set all the way off, the effect will consist entirely of Early Reflections.

Mix

(0% - 100%) Wet/Dry mix. Can be frozen at 100% on the I/O menu.

Out Level

(-100dB - 0dB) The overall Output level of the Reverb. This is mostly used when the two Engines are used in serial mode, or used in the Combined Mode.

Rev Delay

(0 - 200ms) A delay to the tail of the reverb. Adds additional time between the Early Reflections and the onset

of the "tail" of the reverb.

Pre Delay

(0 - 200ms) A delay placed at the Input of the algorithm. This sets how long after the dry sound the Early Reflections will begin.

Hi Color (available in easy mode only):

Adjusts the spectral balance in the high end frequencies.

This is actually a simple way of adjusting a complex selection of frequencies.

Lo Color (available in easy mode only):

Adjusting the spectral balance in the low end frequencies.

A simple way of adjusting a complex selection of frequencies.

Expert mode

Press OK to gain access to the following additional parameters. Note: Hi Color and Lo Color are not available in this mode.

Early Reflections

Early Type

(Several types) Pick the type that best compliments your material or best represents the effect you are going for.

Early Size

(Small, Medium, Large) Changes the size of the Early Type parameter.

Note: Some of the Early Types are only one size.

Early Bal

(-100dB R, Center, -100dB L) the left/right balance of the Early Reflections. Allows you to offset the Early Reflections from the normal center position.

Hi Color

(±50) Adjusts the spectral balance of the Early Type.

The Color parameter is actually an advanced Hi Cut parameter. The default setting of this parameter is customized to each of the Early Types.

Lo Cut

(20Hz - 400Hz) This adjustable filter removes low frequencies for the Early Reflections.
