Parameters The following parameters are available in AuraVerb: Color The Color control lets you adjust the overall tone of the reverb. At 0, the space created is darker, like a lushly carpeted area. At 100, the reverb is at its brightest, which can add some ‘sizzle’ to a lead vocal, for example. PreDelay Common for most reverbs, the pre-delay lets you create a bit of space between the source and the onset of reverb.
This is the linear gain value for all early reflections. These reflections are perceptually grouped with the direct sound when set at lower levels and can nicely thicken a track when increased. Late Reflection Delay Among other things, AuraVerb calculates reflected energy from the side walls and ceiling of the virtual space. Late Reflection Delay controls the delay of these bursts of reflections, either creating echoes or supporting the spatial impression of the simulated acoustic space.
sources with a lot of high frequency content. Generally, as the size of the space increases, the Reverb Time will also increase. Setting Reverb Time to 50% gives a natural sounding tail for all room sizes. Interesting big spaces or subtle ambience reverbs can be created by setting Reverb Time unusually high or low with respect to the Room Size parameter. Room Size Room Size increases the virtual space dimensions Reverb Level This is the output level control of the reverb.
