GATEBOX PLATE REVERB
The Gatebox plate reverb adds reverberation to the signal. The effect has many uses thanks to the
implemented gating possibilities.
PLATE REVERB MAIN
TIME controls the decay time, i.e. how long
time the reverberated signal will stay around
before dying out.
DAMP sets the reverb damping, which is the
effect of “soft walls”. The higher the parameter
is set the faster the sound will die out.
GATE sets the gate time. The reverbated sig-
nal is gated after this time, if the signal level is
low. The maximal value for this parameter
gives infinite time - in other words, the gate is
turned off.
HP controls the high pass filtering of the reverb
signal.
LP controls the low pass filtering of the reverb
signal.
MIX adjusts the output between the original dry
signal and the reverberated wet signal. When
MIXF of the REVERB SETUP page is set to
SEND, the MIX parameter works similarly to
an aux send knob of a mixer.
PLATE REVERB SETUP
GVOL sets the threshold volume of the gated
signal.
BAL sets the balance between the left/right
channel of the reverberated signal.
MONO continuously adjusts the width of the
reverberated signal from stereo to mono.
MIXF defines the functionality of the MIX con-
trol of the REVERB MAIN page to be either
MIX or SEND.
