2-2-1 Reverb
Also called “reverberation,” this refers to the sound energy remaining in a room or closed space
after the original sound stops. Similar to, yet different from echo, Reverb is the indirect, diffuse
sound of reflections from the walls and ceiling that accompany the direct sound. The
characteristics of this indirect sound depends on the size of the room or space and the
materials and furnishings in the room.
VCM (Virtual Circuitry
Modelling)
VCM is a technology that authentically models the elements in analog
circuitry (such as resistors and capacitors). Effect types using the VCM
technology produce the uniquely warm characteristics of vintage
processing gear.
REV-X REV-X is a Reverb algorithm developed by Yamaha. It provides a high-
density, richly reverberant sound quality, with smooth attenuation, spread
and depth that work together to enhance the original sound.
