[. . . ] 12T System User Guide Unpacking and Inspection After unpacking the12T system modules, save all packing materials in case you ever need to ship the units. Thoroughly inspect the modules and packing materials for signs of damage. Report any damage to the carrier at once; report equipment malfunction to your dealer. Notice This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy and if not installed and used properly, that is, in strict accordance with the manufacturer's instructions, may cause interference to radio and television reception. It has been type tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A computing device in accordance with the specifications in Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are designated to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. [. . . ] As Shape is advanced, reverberation builds up more slowly and sustains for the time set by the Spread. With Shape in the middle, the build-up and sustain of the reverberation envelope emulates a large concert hall (assuming that Spread is at least halfway up, and that Size is 30 meters or larger). Low Spread settings result in a rapid onset of reverberation at the beginning of the envelope, with little or no sustain. Higher settings spread out both the buildup and sustain. Size Size sets the rate of build-up of diffusion after the initial period (which is controlled by Diffusion). The Size control changes a reverb sound from very large to very small. Generally, you should set this control to approximate the size of the acoustic space you are trying to create, before adjusting anything else. The size in meters is roughly equal to the longest dimension of the space. Audio is temporarily muted when Size is changed. Slope In the Inverse algorithm, Slope determines the shape of the reverb envelope. When set to 0, the level of reverb remains unchanged over its duration, then cuts off abruptly (depending upon the amount of Diffusion in use). Setting Slope above 0 causes the level of reverb to rise smoothly from soft to loud until the sound is cut off. The greater the slope, the softer the initial reverberation and the more pronounced its rise. With negative values, the reverb drops from its initial level to a quieter one before cutoff. The lower the slope, the more pronounced the drop-off. 76 Spin Spin affects the movement of the reverberation tail. The object of Spin is to continuously alter the timbre of the reverberant sound. This makes the result more natural, without making the position of the instruments unstable. Spin should typically be set to values between 10% and 50%. Higher values may make the timbre of piano, guitar and other precisely pitched instruments unstable. Treble Dcy Treble Dcy sets the frequency above which a 6dB/octave low-pass filter attenuates the reverberated signal. It does not attenuate Reflection Delays. High frequencies are often rolled off with this parameter, resulting in more natural-sounding reverberation. Setting a low frequency for this parameter can actually shorten the reverb time, as it damps the audio as it recirculates. 77 Preset Design Notes on Preset Design PC-90 incorporates the results of a great deal of research into acoustics and reverberation. Reverberation, or reflected sound energy, gives recorded music a sense of being performed in a real acoustic location. Using the Size and Spread Parameters In the PC-90, the Size and Spread controls allow adjustment of the buildup and decay of the initial part of the reverberation envelope. [. . . ] Is the audio quality bad when monitoring through the VST mixer with punch disabled and Record or Tape Type monitoring enabled?Solution: If you have answered 'yes' to the questions above, obtain new drivers for Lexicon Studio. Newer versions of the Coredsp. pci contained in version 3. 10 have been optimized for slower and non-Intel based PCI chip sets. C-17 PC-90 Problems PC-90 is not selectable in Cubase VST as a plug-in. If the PC-90 machine 1 and PC-90 machine 2 are not selectable as an effect, the . dlls have proobably not been installed into the proper `vstplugins' folder. [. . . ]
