CHAPTER 3

OVERVIEW OF PROGRAMS

Reverb Effects

Reverb is made up of a large number of distinct echoes, called reflections. In a

natural acoustic space, each reflection’s amplitude and brightness decays over time.

This decaying action is influenced by the room size, the location of the sound source

in the room, the hardness of the walls, and many other factors. The NanoVerb offers

the following types of reverberation:

Concert Hall (3 Programs)

This is a simulation of a large concert hall. Halls tend to be large rooms with lots of

reflective surfaces, where sounds can swim around, changing timbre over time. This

is a classic reverb which sounds good on just about anything. Try it on vocals, drums,

acoustic, electric, or orchestral instruments.

Hall 1- This is a large bright hall program. It works well for almost anything, try it on

drums, guitars or vocals.

Hall 2- This is a warmer hall program. It especially adds depth and character to

acoustic guitars and pianos with it's decay set long.

Hall 3- The third program is a medium hall with 12ms of predelay before the reverb

starts. It sounds great on big rock snares, but try it on vocals and electric guitar too.

Real Room (3 Programs)

This algorithm gives you the sound of a medium size studio room. This algorithm

uses a lot of processing power for a rich sound and smooth decay. It has a punchier,

bigger sound than a hall reverb, which makes it good for rock and dance music. The

attack is also more reflective. It sounds good on drums, keyboards and guitars.

Room 1- This hardwood studio room has a lot of early reflection slap for big drum

sounds. It also works well for acoustic instruments, especially with the decay turned

up.

Room 2- This program is perfect for adding a little ambiance to a dry track. Try it on

antiseptic synth sounds or on dry, unplugged mixes with the decay set short.

Room 3- Ideal for acoustic guitars and classical instruments, this program emulates a

warmer studio room.

Plate Reverb (3 Programs)

This is a simulation of a classic echo plate, a 4' by 8' suspended sheet of metal with

transducers at either end used to produce reverb. Popular in the 1970’s, it is still

prized for its transparent sound, particularly on vocals and guitars. It works well for a

lush lead vocal, piano, or guitar, especially when looking for a classic rock and roll

sound.

Plate 1- The first program is a classic bright vocal plate for pristine lead and

background vocals.

Plate 2- A warmer variation of the previous program, great for adding sustain on

acoustic guitar and strings.

Plate 3- This program is a more realistic simulation of a vintage tube plate reverb. It

has very little bottom end, which makes it great for snappy snares and skinny guitars.
