Identical to the Mid 1 Fc parameter, and is used to control different bandwidths within the mid range. Identical to the Mid 1 Q parameter, and is used to control different bandwidths within the mid range. Identical to the Mid 1 Gain parameter, used to control different bandwidths within the mid range.

Large Room reverb provides ambience, and Small Room reverb simulates the ambience of a small room. Parameter Decay Range 0sec to 12. 7sec (Hall setting) 0sec to 10. 0sec (Room settings) -99% to +99% Description Controls the amount of time it takes for the reverberation to decay to a very low level after the input signal stops. Higher values are recommended for the hall reverb. Functions as a tone control and boosts (when set to a positive value) or cuts (when set to a negative value) the rate at which low frequencies will decay. Controls the rate of attenuation of high frequencies in the decay of the reverberation. As natural reverb decays, some high frequencies tend to get absorbed by the environment. Increasing the value of this parameter will gradually filter out (dampen) more and more high frequency energy. The high frequency bandwidth acts as a low pass filter on the signal going into the reverb, controlling the amount of high frequencies that will pass into the effect. The higher the setting, the more high frequencies are allowed to pass. Controls the level of the diffused input signal into the reverb definition. Smears the input signal transients, to diffuse and smooth the sound. Lower values will cause impulse sounds to appear as a series of discrete echoes, while higher values tend to increase the smear (smoother sounding with fewer discrete echoes). We recommend settings of 50 for starters. This parameter, similar to and in series with Diffusion1, performs the same way but controls lower frequency ranges. Experiment with different levels between the diffusion parameters to find the settings that are right for your source.
