CAUTION RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT OPEN FOR YOUR PROTECTION, PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING: WATER AND MOISTURE: Appliance should not be used near water (e. g. near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, etc). Care should be taken so that objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through openings. POWER SOURCES: The appliance should be connected to a power supply only of the type described in the operating instructions or as marked on the appliance. [. . . ] Set DISPERSION low for a dense cluster of reflections during the early portions of DECAY. Simulates the presence of different room materials by controlling the smoothness of reverberations through the course of DECAY. Low DIFFUSION settings are great for simulating hard, flat surfaces while higher DIFFUSION settings can be used to simulate the presence of irregular surfaces in the room such as natural rock masonry or man-made diffusers. Unlike flat surfaces, these materials reflect (diffuse) the sound in many directions because of the irregularity of the surfaces themselves. Selects which crossover type will be used for the Primary and Secondary reverb stages. These two Parameters allow the crossover to be turned On or Off for each reverb stage. When Off, that particular reverb stage will be full bandwidth, otherwise its frequency response is limited by the X-Over Type and Frequency Parameters. Adjusts how quickly the room absorbs the high-frequency reverberations. In a real room, absorptive materials can be used to dampen the natural high-frequency reverberations of the room. High settings of DAMP cause the reverberations to darken tonally and become less defined over the course of DECAY. Low settings cause less dramatic room effects on the tone of the reverberations. This control can be used to darken the response of bright-sounding gated reverbs. Ranges from 100 Hz to 8 kHz in the Gated Reverb and from 100 Hz to 20 kHz in the Stereo Gated Reverb. Controls the length of the gated reverb in milliseconds (much like the DECAY control of a normal reverb). Ranges from 25 milliseconds to 300 milliseconds (or 500 milliseconds on the Stereo Gated Reverb).

G er er Sp St St St G G R R Blend The BLEND control cross-mixes reverberations from the left side into the right side and vice-versa. This can be used to increase the realism of the simulated room by adding reverberations from different parts of the room to each channel. These two parameters adjust the amount of BLEND for the Primary and Secondary reverb stages. This one control could have been divided among Size and Reflection controls but has been simplified here for easier use. For more natural sounding reverbs, you may also want to decrease the DENSITY setting as DECAY is shortened. Ranges from . 5 to 23 seconds depending on the Reverb Type currently selected. Controls the length (RT60) for the Primary and Secondary reverbaration stages.
