VSS™3
The VSS™3 Reverb algorithm incorporates dedi-
cated Early Reflection types for motion picture
use, e.g. Car, Bathroom and Conference Rooms.
The VSS™3 algorithm occupies:
@ Normal Sample Rate: 1/4 DSP Resource
@ Double Sample Rate: 1/4 DSP Resource
The inputs and outputs of this algorithm are dis-
tributed as follows:

E2
E3

Decay
Range: 0.01 to 20 s
The Decay time of the Reverb. Usually associat-
ed with the time it takes the Reverb Tail to decay
60 dB. This is the overall Master Decay for the
four band Decay parameters (found in the RE-
VERB section below) which are multiples of this
base Reverb time.
Rev Delay
Range: 0 to 200 ms
A delay to the diffuse field part of the Reverb.
Adds additional time between the Early Reflec-
tions and the onset of the “diffuse field” of the
Reverb.
Pre Delay
Range: 0 to 100 ms
A delay placed at the Input of the algorithm. This
sets how long after the dry sound the Early Re-
flections and the diffuse field will begin.
Hi Cut
Range: 20 to 20 kHz
Rolls off the top end as it enters the Reverb.
Used in conjunction with Hi Soften and Hi Decay
to “darken” a room.
Hi Decay
Sets the Decay time for the High-end frequen-
cies of the Reverb diffuse field.
Levels
Rev Level
Range: -100dB to 0dB
The Output level of the diffuse field part of the
algorithm When Rev Level is set to off, the effect
will consist entirely of Early Reflections.
Early Level
Range: -100dB to 0dB
The Output level of the Early Reflections. When
Early Lev is set to off the Reverb effect will con-
sist entirely of Reverb “Tail”.
Dry Level
Range: Off to 0dB
Attenuates the Dry signal level on the Output
side thus leaving the Reverb and Early Level un-
affected. Off equals a “kill-dry” setting.
In Level
Range: Off to 0dB
Sets the In Level for the algorithm.
