9 System Pr esets and Machine P resets also have U ser and Card categories, where you can access user-edited presets. Pr esets in the User categor y are stored on the PCM96, and presets in the Card categor y are stored on a Compact F lash card. T o select a differ ent category F rom the Pr eset screen, press the Back button.
10 N ote that pressing the Back button or the Select knob have different results depending on what kind of preset is loaded. The following diagram shows what happens when you pr ess the Select knob, Back button, and Machine button in both System View and Machine View .

14 dSP coNFIGURA tIoNS The PCM96 processor can be divided in up to four virtual machines, each of which can run its own algorithm. This lets you route signals from each input through a variety of algorithm combinations .
15 the PcM96 PLUG-IN The plug-in lets you add PCM96 reverbs and effects to projects on your Digital Audio W orkstation (DA W). INSt ALLING the PLUG-IN SoFtW ARe T o install the PCM96 plug-in: Double-click the PCM96_Installer x.x.x.x.dmg file (where “ x.

17 tons in the row at the top of the third control area (in the example above, I/O Levels, Input Control, Shape, etc.). Some parameters appear as drop- down menus; click the menu to open it, and click on an option to select it. When you move a parameter’ s slider , an arro w appears where the slider’ s default position is.
18 PcM96 SetUP dIALoG When you click the PCM96 Communication button in the PCM96 Control P anel, the PCM96 Setup dialog appears. Communications Interface Select your computer ’ s connection to the PCM96 here. Choose from F irewire TM or “Ethernet X ,” where “ X ” is a number corresponding to your computer’ s network inter face card.
19 NetWoRKING This section provides a step-by-step guide on how to properly connect the PCM96 to a Local Area Networ k (LAN) for several different network archi- tectures. The first topology is a simple direct connection using the pro vided Ethernet cable.
20 SUbNet A small network within a larger network. For example, a T CP/IP network might be a subnet of a venue ’ s network, which could include computers throughout the building, or a network might be divided into subnets. For example, in a large installation, there may be one subnet per rack or room.
21 vIRtUAL PRIv A te NetWoRKS (vPN) Virtual private networks (VPN) pro vide an encr ypted connection (or tunnel) between networks or between a network and a user o ver a public network (such as the Internet). Instead of using a dedicated, r eal-world connection such as a leased line, a VPN uses virtual connections through the public network.
22 PC running the System Architect software • H ub / Switch (if used) • If you fail to see a link light tr y removing and reinserting the cable or trying a different, known good, cable. Also, make sure that you are using the cor- rect cable. PING There is a simple utility built into OS-X that tests the network connection between two devices.
23 SySteM MeNU The System Menu lets you adjust several settings in the PCM96. T o access the System Menu, press the Select knob while a S ystem P reset is loaded. The System Menu contains sub-menus and options . S ub-menus contain options and/or more sub-menus.
24 transmitting device is paused. M ode - S elect “Consum er” to send informa tion in S/PDIF format. Select “Pr ofessional” to send information in AES format. Confi dence Erro r - “0” indicate s no prob lem. “1” indicates the PCM96 is detecting excessive jitter or noise on the digital audio line.
25 Bank Dump Lets you copy an entir e bank of presets from the PCM96 to another devic e via MIDI. (F or a map of bank s and pre sets, see page 29; to see the current preset ’ s bank number , press Knob C while viewing the P reset screen.) When Bank Dump is highlighted, turn the corresponding B or C Knob to select a bank.
26 MAchINe MeNU The Machine menu lets you adjust settings for a single vir tual machine. T o access the Machine menu, press the Select knob while a Machine Pr eset is loaded. The sub-menus var y depending on what algorithm is active. SoFt RoW SetUP This sub-menu lets you assign parameters to a Machine P reset ’ s soft row .
27 USING MIdI The MIDI Control menu is where all MIDI related control is changed. See page 24 for information about the MIDI Control menu. MIdI IMPLeMeNt A tIoN The PCM96 offers MIDI implementation for use with external MIDI hard- ware and software controllers.

33 the ALGoRIthMS chAMbeR (SteReo ANd MoNo) Chamber is a complex miniature-space effect resembling an echo chamber at its smaller settings and, at its larger ones, a small performance space with a more rapid build-up of reflection density than a hall.
34 Random Delays are similar to Simple Delays, but are especially useful for: • M ultitap T ape Loops F eedb ack can be used to recir culate delay s. Approp riate use of hi ghpass and lowp ass filters emula tes the ban dpass effect s of multi- generati onal tape loops (hiss not included).
35 RANdoM hALL (SteReo ANd MoNo) Random Hall is a hall effect with gradual build-up, well suited to complex sounds like orchestral music. Its reverberators change over time in controlled random ways to avoid the buildup of tinny , grainy , metallic, or other color- ations.
36 ReSoNANt choRdS (SteReo ANd MoNo) The Resonant Chord algorithm uses impulsive energy at the inputs to excite six resonant voices (notes). The level, pitch, duration, and high-frequency cutoff of the overtones for each voice are separately controllable.
37 round-robin. F or example, if MIDI note numbers are used to assign pitch, the resonators will constantly be re-tuned to the pitches of the last six MIDI notes receiv ed. (This can produce an effect similar to playing a piano with the sustain pedal depressed.

39 the P ARAMeteRS The PCM 96 contains hundreds of presets, covering just about every pos- sible need. But you can refine and customize any preset by adjusting its parameters . P arameters are the building blocks within each preset that deter- mine how it sounds and behaves.
40 Category (Room) This parameter lets you select a specific category from which a room response may be chosen. Changes here have a direct effect on the P attern Selector parameter . Chorus Depth (Concert Hall) This parameter controls the amount of randomization of the chorus tap.
41 The actual feedback level is modified by the Master Echo F eedback param- eter , if present. The master value is a percentage (0-100%) that is applied to the Echo F eedback level. Feedback Diffusion F eedback Diffusion is similar to Input Diffusion, except that it is applied to a delayed signal that is being added back into the input.
42 Master Reflection Delay (Reflection Time Master) Controls all reflection delays in the algorithm. Each reflection delay voice has its nominal delay time adjusted by this percentage. MidRT MidR T is the mid frequency rev erb time. As such, it is one of the primary controls affecting the length of the reverb tail.
43 Resonance Master Controls all voices in the algorithm. Each voice has its nominal resonance adjusted by this percentage. Resonance T uning Master Affects all voices in the algorithm. Each voice has its nominal resonance adjusted by this value. In the musical world, the tuning reference is A=440.
44 to bounce around. When the room size is small, the “ walls ” of this space are closer together and the resultant reflection density increases. When the room size is large, that density decreases.
45 Signal T ype Selects the type of signal to be created by the signal generator . The types of signal are: Sine W ave — When this is selected the signal frequency parameter is • used to control frequency . S weep U p — 20Hz to 20KHz sweep. When this is selected the signal • rate parameter is used to control rate.
46 T ype This parameter lets you configur e a filter as any of 4 basic types, in order: Lowpass • Highpass • Bandpass • N otch (Band-r eject) • The filter provides a subset of filter types available to a Biquad filter . Wet Dry Mix W et D r y Mix is the proportion of wet (processed) signal to dr y (unpro- cessed) signal.
