Gated Verb
An accurate emulation of the classic 80’s Gated Reverb
plus two other variants called ‘Panned’ and ‘Powerbox’. The
user interface gives instant access to Lo-cut Hi-cut decay
spectrum filters and the gate envelope controls - predelay,
attack, hold and release.
We depart from the 80’s and provide a visual representation
of the gate time domain envelope helping the engineer ‘see
the time envelope of the gate’. Also included are mono,
stereo and wide imaging options and decay diffusion
control.
Lo cut Decay Filter - 20Hz – 6kHz, 24dB/octave Hi Pass
Filter to control the decay spectrum.
Hi cut Decay Filter - 400Hz – 20kHz, 12dB/octave Low
Pass Filter to control the decay spectrum.
Time domain Gate envelope controls:
Predelay - 0 - 170ms adjustable pre-delay of gate opening
(prior to attack starting).
Attack - Time period for gate to open.
Hold - Time period that the gate remains fully open.
Release - Time period for gate closing.
Maximum gate open time (attack + hold + release) =
500ms.
Models:
Classic nonlinear - Emulates the faithful 80’s classic gated
reverb.
Panner - Rapid panning between L and R in the reverb.
Short time movement FX.
Powerbox - Max power in gated energy. Not as de-
correlated as classic non-linear.
Mono/Stereo/Wide - Option to switch between mono,
stereo and wide stereo field output.
Diffusion - Minimum diffusion for ‘clear’ low diffusion in the
reverb decay. Maximum diffusion for ‘rich’ highly diffused
reverb.

auditioning all library presets for this module (factory, user
and USB). You can also select and recall a particular preset
using the Library window.
ADT Doubler
An Automatic Double Tracking module capable of creating
short echo/chorusing, classic double tracking and
‘slapback’ tape delay loops.
The ADT is very effective in creating stereo double and
quad tracked voices from a mono input. There is also a
stereo width enhancer. The tracked voices can be auto
panned in the stereo field. The ADT is perfect for creating
classic doubling effects, thickening programme on stage or
developing a stereo sound field without resorting to
chorusing.
The module is stereo in, stereo out (with software
normalised mono input if the source is mono). ADT will
create a stereo field from a mono source.
Delay Separation - Min position for short delay separation
producing Chorusing with Thickness set high. Mid position
for classic doubling. ¾ position with thickness high for
echo-chorusing. Max position with low thickness for tape
loop and slapback Echo.
Thickness - Creates flutter modulation in delay voices. Very
high settings can smear detail on some programme.
Double/Quad Track - Clear double tracking in the first
position. Switch across for thicker quad tracking. With some
programme Quad can get too thick and smear detail.
Wide - Extends the delay separation differences between
Left and Right enhancing the stereo image.
Autopan - Automatically pans the chorus voices (wet signal
only, not the dry signal). This is level modulation of the wet
effect (not the dry signal) across the stereo field. It is not
complete signal auto panning.
Depth - Determines the amount of movement across the
stereo field. Use higher settings for a stronger effect.
Speed - Determines the speed of movement across the
stereo field.
