Audio Reverb

Reverb control are added for individual tracks with RealTracks or

RealDrums, so you can easily add reverb (0 to 127) for any RealTrack. Reverb

type is also settable, and saved with the song.

At the top of the screen, there is an “A.REV” (Audio Reverb)

control. Click on an instrument radio button, and then set the

Audio Reverb for it.

Note that this only applies to RealTracks, since MIDI tracks have

MIDI Reverb, which is set via a “REV” control.

The Audio Reverb varies from 0 to 127. Adjust the value by clicking a key on

the on-screen piano keyboard. Or right-click (or control-click) the control to

enter a value. See the RealTracks and RealDrums chapter for more about this

feature.

There is also a feature that automatically adds reverb to RealTracks, according

to instrument type. (No Reverb is added to Bass for example, but most

instruments get reverb.)

This feature defaults to on, but you can turn it off in RealTracks Settings or

Reverb Settings dialog.

If you just want more or less added, you can adjust the “Strength %.” For

example, the default adds a reverb of 40 to most tracks, but if you set the

strength to 75%, then 30 will get added.

You can also set the type of reverb. The default is a “room” type of reverb.

To do this, press the Audio Reverb button, and adjust the various

parameters.

You can then save your reverb types as presets, and the current settings will also

be saved with the song. The presets all gets saved to a PGReverbSettings.bin

file in Band-in-a-Box/Preferences folder.
