Early Reflection, Gate Reverb, Reverse Gate (CLASSIC bank)

These effects are based on the effects of earlier models in the SPX
series. They have a simpler parameter structure than the identically-
named effects of the PRESET bank.
Each aspect of the sound is controlled by the following effect parame-
ters.
Early reflections: TYPE, ROOMSIZE, LIVENESS, DELAY
Filter/equalizer: LPF
Output level: OUT LVL, MIX BAL.
Parameter details
■Basic parameters
Effect list
The following table shows the default parameter values for the effects belonging to the Early Reflection, Gate Reverb, and
Reverse Gate types (CLASSIC bank).
Parameter name Range Explanation
TYPE HALL, RANDOM,
REVERS, PLATE
The pattern of early reflections; this determines the basic character of the effect. The characteristics
of the early reflections will depend on the type you select here.
ROOMSIZE 0.1—20.0 Size of the reverberant space. Increasing this value simulates a larger space. You can use this to sim-
ulate the absorptiveness of the walls and ceiling.
LIVENESS 0—10 Decay characteristics of the early reflections. Increasing this value will reduce the decay, causing the
repeats to continue. You can use this to simulate the absorptiveness of the walls and ceiling.
DELAY 0.0—500.0 ms Delay of the early reflections relative to the original sound.
LPF 1.0—11 kHz, THRU
A filter that cuts the high-frequency portion of the effect. Frequency components above the fre-
quency specified here will be cut. With a setting of THRU this filter will do nothing. This filter does
not affect the original sound.
OUT LVL 0—100% Output level after the original sound and effect sound have been mixed. Decrease this value if you
want to lower the output. At a setting of 0% there will be no output.
MIX BAL. 0—100% Balance between the original sound and effect sound. At a setting of 0% only the original sound
will be output; at a setting of 100% only the effect sound will be output.
