Reverb
The reverb effect is the most common vocal effect.
Reverb can imitate the natural sound of spaces like
churches, clubs and halls. However, not all reverb sounds
imitate a real space. Many reverb effects are recreations
of electro-mechanical effects like Plates and Springs.
All reverbs are made up of early reflections (rooms), and
the longer reverberant sounds (tails). Common controls
are the level of the room (Room Level), and the level
and decay of the tail (Tail Level, Reverb Decay).
Additionally, a small delay can be added between the dry
voice and the reverb signal (Predelay).
By far the most important control for reverb is the level.
One reverb patch can have a very different result for the
audience whether it is mixed subtly, or up front in the
mix.
A good way of breaking down the various reverb effects
is as follows:
Spaces:
- Halls
- Rooms
Devices:
- Plates
- Springs
Selecting Reverb Patches
1. Turn effects on by pressing the Right Footswitch.
2. Browse through patches 11 through 20 by turning
the Patch Knob.
3. Use the Tweak Knobs to alter the reverb effect.The
most common assignments for the Tweak Knobs are
combinations of level, decay, style, and predelay.
