●Reverb parameter function❍Reverb (Reverb Type)

You can choose from 8 types of reverb.

Room1 Room2 Room3

These reverbs simulate the reverberation of a room. They provide a well-defined spacious reverberation.

Hall1 Hall2

These reverbs simulate the reverberation of a concert hall. They provide a deeper reverberation than the Room reverbs.

Plate

This simulates a plate reverb (a studio device using a metal plate).

Delay

This is a conventional delay that produces echo effects.

Panning Delay

This is a special delay in which the delayed sounds move left and right. It is effective when you are listening in stereo.

When you change the Reverb Type, the following parameter values will automatically change. This is so that the parameter values will have the settings most appropriate for the selected Reverb Type. You can select these parameters (p.51) and modify the values to adjust the effect to your taste.

❍Rev Charac. (Reverb Character) 0 — 7

This parameter selects only the type of reverb. 0 — 5 are reverb effects, and 6 and 7 are delay effects.

❍Rev Pre-LPF (Reverb Pre Low Pass Filter) 0 — 7

A low pass filter can be applied to the sound coming into the reverb to cut the high frequency range. Higher values will cut more of the high frequencies, resulting in a more mellow reverberation.

❍Rev Level (Reverb Level) 0 — 127

This parameter sets the amount of the reverberant sound. Higher values result in louder reverberation.

❍Rev Time (Reverb Time) 0 — 127

This parameter sets the time over which the reverberation will continue. Higher values result in longer rever- beration.

❍Rev Delay Fb (Reverb Delay Feedback) 0 —

127

This parameter is used when the Reverb Charac. is set to 6 or 7, Reverb Type is set to Delay or Panning Delay. It sets the way in which delays repeat. Higher values result in more delay repeats.

❍RevPreDlyT (Reverb Pre-Delay Time) 0ms— 127ms

This parameter sets the delay time until the reverberant sound is heard. Higher values result in a longer pre-delay time, simulating a larger reverberant space.

*Reverb Pro-Delay Time cannot be used when Double Module Mode (p.116) is selected.

About Reverb Type

When you change the Reverb Type, the above- listed six reverb parameters (including Reverb Character) will be automatically adjusted to the optimal values. Rather than individually adjusting each reverb parameter, it is easier to first set the Reverb Type (listed in the MIDI implementation as “REVERB MACRO” → p.194), and then modify only those parameters that you wish to modify. In particular when using MIDI exclusive messages, this method of making settings will minimize the amount of data.

Chorus Type (CHORUS MACRO) and Delay Type (DELAY MACRO) can be used in the same way.
