Chapter 11: EMT 140 Plate Reverb

Stereo Controls

Width

Width allows you to narrow the stereo image of EMT 140. The
range is from 0 – 100%. At a value of zero, EMT 140 returns a
monophonic reverb. At 100%, the stereo reverb field is as wide as
possible.

Balance

This control balances the level between the left and right channels of
the reverb return. Rotating the knob to the left attenuates the right
channel, and vice versa (it is not a mono pan control).

EQ Controls

This group of parameters contains the controls for EMT
140’s onboard utility equalizer. It is a two band (low and
high) shelving EQ that uses analog-sounding algorithms
for great tonal shaping options.

The EQ section is independent from the reverb algorithms
and the Input Filter on the modeled plate systems. See

“In-

put Filter” on page 130

.

The frequency parameters specify the center of the transi-
tion band, which is defined as the frequency at which the
level in dB is the midpoint between DC and the band
edge level.

Note:

There is one EQ per plug-in instance. Each plate

model (A, B, C) within a preset cannot have unique EQ
values.

EQ Enable

The EMT 140 equalizer can be disabled with the EQ Enable switch. UAD DSP
usage is not increased when EQ is enabled.

Low Frequency

This parameter specifies the low shelving band transition frequency to be
boosted or attenuated by the low band Gain setting. The range is 20 Hz to
2 kHz.
