FOCUS
ƒ FOCUS BIAS
The FOCUS parameter controls the overall signal focusing, or
reverb attenuation/boost. Essentially it is a cross-fade
between reverb/mud and the direct/foreground signal.
Higher values remove reverb and "mud" from the signal,
lower values add reverb by attenuating the direct (incident)
signal. Center has no effect and leaves the signal unchanged.
For best results we recommend setting FOCUS to its highest
value while adjusting the other parameters so their effects
become immediately apparent, then backing of FOCUS as
needed. CTRL-Click sets this parameter to default.
This bank of sliders allows setting the FOCUS parameter
depending on the signal frequency. With these parameters
you can de-reverberate critical frequencies more than
frequencies that have less reverb to them, such as the low
frequency end. The FOCUS BIAS is relative to the amount set
using the FOCUS control. If you set FOCUS to its center
position the signal will pass through unchanged. You can then
use FOCUS BIAS to change the signal focus for certain
frequencies only. A CTRL-click on one of the sliders resets it
to neutral, and a click on the CLR button resets all sliders to
neutral.
