The Ambience effect gives
warmth, spaciousness and depth
to a performance without coloring
the direct sound, and is commonly
used to add a room sound to re-
corded music or speech. The ef-
fect simulates reflections from
room surfaces, with random re-
flections, a gradual decay of over-
all level, and a gradual narrowing
of the bandwidth. DTime settings
can be varied to create larger or
smaller spaces while variations of
D Lvl and Rt HC correspond to the
hardness of the imaginary reflect-
ing surfaces and the effects of air
absorption on the high end of the
sonic spectrum.

Plate effects were originally gen-
erated by large, thin sheets of metal
suspended upright under tension
on springs. Transducers attached
to the plate would transmit a signal
which would, in turn, vibrate the
plate. Because the plate provided
a denser medium than air, sounds
broadcast through it would seem
to be ocurring in a large open
space.
The Plate effect synthesizes the
sound of metal plates, with high
initial diffusion and a relatively
bright, colored sound. This effect
is designed to be heard as part of
the music, mellowing and thicken-
ing the initial sound. It is a popular
choice for enhancing popular mu-
sic, particularly percussion.
