VSS™GATE

Reverb Mod

Type

(Off, Smooth 1, Smooth 2, Perc, Wow, Vintage, Wild) Adjusts the type of modulation.

Rate

(-100, default, +100) Allows you to offset the speed of the LFO from the factory default assigned to each Type.

Width

(0% - 200%) Sets the Width of the modulation.

Space Mod

This group of parameters sets the way the sound moves about the room.

Type

(Off, Normal, Fast, Slow, MidFreq, Sync).

Rate

(-100, default, +100) Allows you to offset the speed of the LFO from the factory default assigned to each type.

Width

(0% - 100%) Sets the width of the modulation.

Depth

(-50, default, +50) Allows you to offset the amount of space modulation from the factory default.

VSS™Gate

The VSS™ algorithm with Gate parameters added. The Gate function is very comprehensive, and opens up a lot of opportunities in combination with the reverb.

The user interface is split into two levels: Easy mode, which gives access to the most common parameters, and

Expert mode with additional parameters available.

Threshold

When the Input signal falls below this Threshold, the Gate starts working. This means that the higher Threshold the more expansion you will get.

Attack

The Attack is the time that the Gate uses for

bringing the reduced signal to 1:1, when the signal exceeds the Threshold.

Hold

Is the time that the Gate will keep the Ratio at 1:1 below the Threshold, before the Release time sets in.

Release

The Release time is the fallback time that the Gate uses to close.

Retrig

(On/off) When set to ON the gate works as a normal gate, when set to OFF the gate will run the whole “Attack, Hold, Release” time-cycle before it will be possible to retrig the gate again. This feature is very useful when working with percussive material.

Gate Decay

(0.10 - 1.00) From the Release point, the gate takes down the Output level, but at the same time it’s possible to roll-off the Decay Time in the tail (See the GateType parameter). This parameter is a multiplier on the Decay time that sets in from the start of the Release time. This allows you to “empty” the tail at the Release time so no leftovers are heard when the gate opens again.

Max Att

(0dB - 100dB) Max attenuation of the Gate.
