The DreamVerb user interface (Figure 97 on page 273) is similarly organized.<br />

Reflected energy equalization is controlled with the Resonance panel. The<br />

pattern of early reflections (their relative timing and amplitudes) is determined<br />

by the room shapes in the Shape panel (Figure 101 on page 276). Early reflection<br />

pre-delay, slope, timing, and amplitude are specified in the Reflections<br />

panel (Figure 103 on page 281). The Materials panel (Figure 102 on<br />

page 278) is used to select relative late-field decay rates as a function of frequency.<br />

The late-field predelay, decay rate, room diffusion, slope, and level<br />

is specified in the Reverberation panel (Figure 104 on page 282). Finally, the<br />

Positioning panel (Figure 105 on page 284) contains controls for the placement<br />

of the source, early reflections, and late-field reverberation.<br />

Resonance (Equalization) Panel<br />

The Resonance panel (Figure 99 on page 275) is a five-band equalizer that<br />

can control the overall frequency response of the reverb, effecting its perceived<br />

brilliance and warmth. By adjusting its Amplitude and band Edge controls,<br />

the equalizer can be configured as shelving or parametric EQs, as well<br />

as hybrids between the two.<br />

The EQ curve effects the signal feeding both the early reflections and the late<br />

field reverberations, but not the direct path.<br />

Bands 1 and 5 are configured as shelving bands. Bands 2, 3, and 4 also<br />

have an Edge control for adjusting its bandwidth.<br />

Generally speaking, a lot of high-frequency energy results in a brilliant reverberation,<br />

whereas a good amount of low-frequency content gives a warm reverberation.<br />

Note: The values for the EQ parameters are displayed in the text fields at the<br />

bottom of the Resonance panel. The values can also be entered directly using<br />

the text entry method.<br />
