Resonant Chord Effects (P2 4.1 – P2 4.9) cont'd.

4.7

LvlSweeper

ADJUST: Color

0–24

This preset is driven by level. Any input that exceeds the input threshold will cause a little burst of resonators that quickly swirl through the stereo field. ADJUST controls the pitch range of the resonators.

4.8 SweeperADJUST: Pitch0–24

This preset is a resonant arpeggiator in which a tempo-driven LFO controls the resonator pitches. ADJUST controls the pitch range of the arpeggio effect.

4.9 MIDISustainADJUST: Bright0–5

This preset requires MIDI note input or it will not pass audio. Resonators are assigned as the notes are played (when playing chords, it's best to spread them a little). Footswitch 2 works like a piano damper pedal. When the audio source is the same as the MIDI source, the effect is a little like playing a piano while holding down the pedal. When the audio source is different, well ... ADJUST controls the brightness of the resonators.

Reverb Effects (P3 0.0 – P3 2.8)

0.0 Small+StageADJUST: Stage Lvl 0–50

This preset combines a smooth, small reverberant space with several stage reflections. Use ADJUST to set the stage reflection level.

0.1 Small RoomADJUST: Liveness 0–60

Use ADJUST to quickly change the ambient characteristics of this typically tight sounding room. Great for ADR work.

0.2

Living Room

ADJUST: Decay

0–60

Another ADR preset,medium spaced but with a short Rt. ADJUST quickly changes if not perfect for your application.

0.3 Brick KickADJUST: Liveness 0–100

Kicks *ss on kick drums or the entire submix. ADJUST increases the liveness of the chamber.

0.4 Large RoomADJUST: Decay0–60

A perfectly smooth listening room with medium diffusion. Very natural sounding on any sound source. ADJUST lengthens or shortens the reverb decay.

0.5 SnareChamberADJUST: Liveness 0–60

Like Brick Kick, ADJUST increases the liveness of the space. A classic from the PCM 70.

0.6

Tiled Room

ADJUST: Decay

0–60

A future classic... ADJUST controls reverb decay.

0.7

Rich Chamber

ADJUST:

Decay

0–60

Smooth and full sounding. ADJUST varies reverb decay.

 

 

0.8

Vox Chamber

ADJUST:

Liveness

0–60

Combines recirculating echoes which fall away quickly once signal is absent. Increasing ADJUST lengthens the reverb decay, which will mask the reflection echoes. For vocals.

0.9

Locker Room

ADJUST: Depth

0–127

Just like in high school. ADJUST creates a deeper, more reverberant sound.

1.0 Wide ChamberADJUST: Decay0–60

Big and wide sounding with a preset short Mid Rt. ADJUST will change that if necessary. Use on synth pads or vocals.
