INTRODUCTION

Alesis MIDIVERB III

16 BIT MULTI-EFFECTS PROCESSOR WITH REAL-TIME MIDI PARAMETER CONTROL

INTRODUCTION

The Alesis MIDIVERB III is a high quality multi-effects unit which features up to 4 simultaneous effects (Delay, Reverb, Chorus, EQ) at a full 15KHz bandwidth and with 16 bit resolution.

Since all features of MIDIVERB III are accessible from the front panel, the operator can set up a wide range of complex effects without a complex user interface.

The MIDIVERB III features 200 on-board memory locations, of which the first 100 (000 to 099) are factory pre-programmed with a variety of programs. Memory locations 100 to 199 contain the same programs as the first 100 so that the user can modify or erase these locations without loosing any of the factory programs. All of the second 100 programs can be edited and stored by the user as desired. The original 100 factory programs (000 to 099) cannot be altered permanently.

The rear panel consists of five 1/4" jacks (left and right inputs and outputs, bypass), MIDI input and output jacks, and a power supply connector. The unit can also be rack mounted in a single 19" rack space.
