No. Title
Description Example of its use
01 Bright Room
This room has a bright tone with lots of scattered
reflections to simulate harder, more reflective surfaces.
Useful on vocals that require a brighter reverb to
cut through the mix, or for giving acoustic
instruments a livelier vibe.
02 Warm Lounge
This preset features a medium sized room sound, with
just enough enhancement of the lower mids to produce a
warm tone.
Useful for vocals on songs that require a larger,
more “wet” sound, or for giving dimension to
bright horns without adding harshness.
03 Small Stage
This preset simulates the sound of a small concert stage,
with a medium reverb time and reverberant space.
Useful for vocals or guitars in fast paced,
high-energy songs that call for a “live”
sounding reverberation.
04 Warm Theater
This reverb has a warm bodied tone and medium long
reverb time to simulate the live acoustics of a theater
space.
Perfect for vocals, drums, acoustic and electric
guitars, keyboards and more.
05 Warm Hall
This reverb simulates the sound of a spacious, yet cozy,
heavily draped and carpeted concert hall with an
especially warm tone.
Perfect for adding natural concert hall ambience
to close-mic’ed orchestral instruments.
06 Concert Hall
This hall reverb is characterized by its large, spacious
sound, long pre-delay, and vibrant tone.
Adds life to acoustic instruments and vocals from
solos to full-on symphonies and choirs.
07 Plate Reverb
This preset emulates vintage mechanical reverberation
that was generated with a metal plate. Its sound is
characterized by lots of early reflections and no
pre-delay.
Perfect for thickening percussive instruments, such
as a snare drum, or tight vocal arrangements.
08 Cathedral
This reverb emulates the extremely long tails, dense
diffusion and long pre-delays and reflections that would
be found in a very large, stone walled house of worship.
Gives amazing depth to choirs, wind instruments,
organs and soft acoustic guitars.
09 Chorus
This preset provides a soft, ethereal sweeping effect
that is useful for thickening and for making a
particular sound pop out of the mix.
Perfect for enhancement of electric and acoustic
guitar and bass, or to add a dramatic effect to
vocals, particularly group harmonies and choirs.
10 Chorus + Reverb
This preset perfectly combines the chorus effect above
with a large, roomy reverb.
This effect thickens the sound with chorus while
adding warmth and spaciousness thanks to the
smooth reverb.
11 Doubler
This effect simulates the sound of a vocal or instrument
being recorded twice (double-tracked) on a multi-track
recorder.
Provides a vibe that is similar to chorus without
the subtle swirl.
12 Tape Slap
This effect provides a single, relatively rapid delay of
the original signal, with the added warmth that
vintage tape-based echo units provided.
Often used on vocals for a 1950’s era feel, or on
guitars for a surf-type tone. Often used by people
whose favorite number is 12.

DLY 1 (300ms)
DLY 2 (380ms)
DLY 3 (480ms)
These three presets provide delay. The default delay time
for each preset is shown in ms – the smaller the time, the
faster the delay.
These work best with full, up-beat music like rock
where the delay needs to cut through the mix.
16 Reverb + DLY (250ms)
This effect combines the Warm Theater reverb effect with
the echoes of the 3-repeat delay effect.
Perfect for thickening vocals while adding
dimensions, it can also be used as a spacey
effect on electric guitars.
