Appendix 4: Fusor – Overloud Breverb algorithms

This adapted version of Overloud’s Breverb provides high-end artificial reverberation effects within Fusor.
The controls are cut down from those available in the full Breverb product, but all 4 algorithms are present with their most
important controls.

Breverb Hall

Time (Sec)

Sets the duration of the reverberation tail. It is also influenced by the

Size

parameter.

Size

Sets the rate of build-up diffusion after the initial period, which is controlled by
the

Diffusion parameter. It also acts as a master control for Time and Spread.

Despite its name, the apparent size of the space created is actually a combination
of the settings of the

Size, Shape and Spread controls.

Diffusion

Controls the degree to which the initial echo density increases over time.

Shape

Works together with the

Spread parameter to control the overall ambience of the

reverberation created by the Breverb Room algorithm. It specifically determines
the contour of the reverberation envelope. With the

Shape control all the way

down, reverberation builds explosively and decays very quickly. As the control is is increased, reverberation builds up more slowly
and sustains for the time set by the

Spread parameter.

Spread

Controls the duration of the initial contour of the reverberation envelope. Low

Spread settings result in a rapid onset of

reverberation at the beginning of the envelope, with little or no sustain, while higher settings spread out both the build-up and
sustain.

Predelay (Sec)

Sets the amount of time that elapses between the input signal and the onset of reverberation. It can be used to create a sense of
distance and volume within an acoustic space.

Low
High

The

Low and High parameters can be used to tweak the frequency response of the reverb.

• Low (kHz)

Sets the frequency under which the reverberation is attenuated.

• High (kHz)

Sets the frequency over which the reverberation is attenuated.

Breverb Inverse

Time (Sec)

Sets the duration of the reverberation. This time, added to the

Predelay time,

is the time that elapses from the direct sound to the end of the reverberation
process.
