middle, Stereo is the normal stereo image width
and Wide covers the outside of the stereo image.
The RevTypes: Fast Wd and Alive Wd only have
one width (extremely wide).
Lo Cut
Range: 20 Hz to 200 Hz
Adjustable filter that allows you to remove low
frequencies from the Reverb. The Lo Cut fre-
quency can be perceived as a Threshold fre-
quency. The cut will be performed according to
the Lo Damp parameter.
Lo Damp
Range: -18dB to 0dB
Sets the amount of cut in dBs. (See Lo Cut de-
scription above).
H
i Cut
Range: 20 Hz to 20 kHz
Rolls off the top end of the signal as it enters the
Reverb. Used in conjunction with Hi Soften and
Hi Decay to “darken” a room.
Hi Soften
Range: -50 to +50
Hi Soften is a special filter used to “soften” the
high frequencies of Reverb. This is not a simple
Hi Cut filter but a complex set of filters working
together to remove those frequencies that make
a Reverb sound “brittle” or harsh.
Hi Soften is scaled/linked to the Hi Cut and Hi
Decay.
Rev Balance
Range: -100dB R, center, -100dB L
The left/right balance of the Reverb. Allows you
to offset the diffuse field from the normal center
position.
Diffuse
Range: -50 to +50
This parameter gives you more or less diffusion
than the algorithm designer intended for the giv-
en Decay time. For optimum performance the
diffusion is automatically adjusted behind the
scenes whenever you change Decay times. This
parameter gives you the added control to vary
the diffusion around this automatic setting.
Decay/Crossover
Lo Decay
Range: 0.01 to 2.5
Multiplier for the frequencies below the Lo Xover
frequency. Example: If the Main Decay parame-
ter is set to 2.0 sec and the Lo Decay parameter
is set to 1.5, frequencies below the Lo Xover will
decay for 3.0 sec.
Conversely if this parameter is set to 0.5 the De-
cay time below the Lo Xover point will be only 1
sec.
Lo Xover
Range: 20 Hz to 500 Hz
Sets the frequency at which the transition from
the low to the low-mid frequencies takes place.
Lo Mid Decay
Range: 0.01 to 2.5
The Ratio control multiplier for the low-mid fre-
quencies.
Mid Xover
Range: 200 Hz to 2 kHz
Sets the frequency at which the transition from
the low-mid to the mid frequencies takes place.
Hi Mid Decay
Range: 0.01 to 2.5
The Ratio control multiplier for the mid frequen-
cies. This parameter is normally set to 1.0 as it is
the main parameter adjusted by the main Decay
parameter. This mid-range decay control would
normally be omitted, however, TC Engineers felt
you could use this parameter as a fine adjust-
ment tool to “tweak” a preset to sound just right
without having to adjust the master Decay pa-
rameter.
Hi Xover
Range: 500 Hz to 20 kHz
Sets the frequency at which the transition from
the mid frequencies to the high frequencies
takes place.
