“Reverb” is short for “reverberation” the sound produced by many short echoes off the walls of rooms, etc.

ªSetting the reverb type

Bring up the reverb screen by pressing the REVERB key:

ªTurning the reverb on and off

Press and hold the SHIFT key and press the REVERB key to turn the reverb on (the indicator lights) and off (the indicator is unlit).

ªUsing the reverb

When the reverb is on, the mixer EFFECT SEND controls and the EFFECT RETURN control affect the amount of signal sent to the internal reverb from the tracks, and returned from the internal reverb unit to the stereo mix.

When the reverb is turned off, the mixer EFFECT SEND controls and the EFFECT RETURN control affect the amount of signal sent to the SEND jack from the tracks, and returned to the stereo mix via the RETURN jacks.

Turn the DATA dial to select one of the different “flavors” of reverb: Hall, Room, Live or Studio. Each of these settings has a different quality and character.

ªSetting the reverb time

With the reverb screen displayed, use the cursor (§/) keys to highlight the value below TIME.

Simply turn the DATA dial to change the time the reverb sound takes to die away, from 0.1 seconds to 5.0 seconds in 0.1 second steps.
