29 VSS™ INTRODUCTION Ov er view of the VSS™ Rev erb Section On the opposite page you have a graphical overview of how the VSS™ Reverb algorithm is constructed.
30 VSS™ FOR FILM AND POST PR ODUCTION VSS™FP & VSS™SR W ith the VSS™FP and VSS™SR algorithms for film- and post-production our main focus has been realistically sounding rooms, no matter how harsh, hard or grindy they sometimes are.
31 VSS™FP - FILM AND POST Stereo VSS™FP Diagram overview of the VSS™FP reverb with Early Reflection generator and stereo reverb generator in parallel. For further details please see the illustration on page 28, and read the descriptions of the algorithms on the following pages.
32 Surround VSS™SR On top of the Early Reflections generator , each Engine may process two completely independent reverb systems, hereby enabling the operator to set separate Delay and Decay times in front and rear channels. One or both M3000 engines may run VSS™SR surround algorithms.
33 Re verb Pr ograms VSS™3, VSS™Gate, VSS™FP , VSS™SR, C.O.R.E. and Rev 3. These are the basic reverb algorithms in the M3000. VSS™3 Re verb The VSS Reverb is a multipurpose algorithm, that .
34 34 Re verb (tail) Rev T ype (Smooth, Natural, Alive, Fast St., Fast Wd.) Adjust this parameter with the Early Lev turned all the way off and the Rev Lev all the way up.
35 Re verb Mod T ype (Off, Smooth 1, Smooth 2, Perc, W ow , V intage, W ild) Adjusts the type of modulation. Rate (-100, default, +100) Allows you to offset the speed of the LFO from the factory default assigned to each T ype. Width (0% - 200%) Sets the W idth of the modulation.
36 Hi Color (available in easy mode only) Adjusts the spectral balance in the high end frequencies This is actually a simple way of adjusting a complex selec- tion of frequencies. Lo Color (available in easy mode only) Adjusts the spectral balance in the low-end frequencies A simple way of adjusting a complex selection of frequen- cies.
37 Re verb (tail) Rev T ype: (Smooth, Natural, Alive) Adjust this parameter with the Early Lev turned all the way off and the Rev Lev all the way up. Change the type to get a feel for what each one sounds like. Diffuse: (±50) This parameter gives you more or less dif fusion than the algorithm designer intended for the given Decay time.
38 38 Re verb Modulation T ype: (Off, Smooth1, Smooth2, Perc, W ow , V intage, W ild) Adjusts the type of modulation. T ry all of them. First turn the Depth all the way up and turn the Early Lev off and the MIX to 100% so you are only listening to the tail of the verb.
39 VSS™FP - FILM & POST VSS™FP The VSS™FP (Film & Post-Production) reverb algorithm is a special version of VSS™3, incorporating dedicated Early Reflection types for motion picture use, e.g. Car , Bathroom and Conference Rooms. VSS™FP Re verb Decay (0.
VSS™FP - FILM & POST 40 Early Bal (-100dB R, Center , -100dB L) the left/right balance of the Early Reflections. Allows you to offset the Early Reflections from the normal center position. Hi Color: Adjusts the spectral balance in the high end frequencies.
41 VSS™FP - FILM & POST Lo Damp Freq (20Hz - 200Hz) Sets the Lo Cut frequency for the next parameter , Lo Damp. Use these two parameters to take away any objectionable low frequencies entering the Reverb tail processor . Lo Damp (-18dB - 0dB) Sets the amount of cut in dBs.
VSS™SR - SURROUND 42 Front Delay (0 - 200ms) Changes the reverb feed delay time of the Front/center information in the signal. Rear Delay Changes the reverb feed delay time of the Rear/surround information in the signal. Pre Delay (0 - 100ms) A delay placed at the Input of the algorithm.
43 VSS™SR - SURROUND Early Bal (-100dB R, Center , -100dB L) the left/right balance of the Early Reflections. Allows you to offset the Early Reflections from the normal center position. Hi Color (±50) Adjusts the spectral balance of the Early T ype.
VSS™SR - SURROUND 44 Re verb Mod T ype (Off, Smooth 1, Smooth 2, Perc, W ow , V intage, W ild) Adjusts the type of modulation. Rate (-100, default, +100) Allows you to offset the speed of the LFO from the factory default assigned to each T ype. Width (0% - 200%) Sets the W idth of the modulation.
45 Imposes the characteristics of the Early Reflections on the later reverberation. Rev diff 2 Imposes the characteristics of the Early Reflections on the later reverberation. Rev wid th This parameter adjusts the stereo width of the Reverb tail. Hi Cut level Damping Ratio in dB of the Hi Cut filter .
46 46 Hi Decay Adjusts the high frequency Reverberation time. Hi Crossover Crossover frequency between mid and high band Reverberation filter . Mid Crossover Crossover frequency between low-mid and high-mid band Reverberation filter . Lo Mid Decay Adjusts the mid frequency Reverberation time.
47 Dela y The Delay presets are capable of performing up to 1350ms delay . The Feedback filters make it possible to control both high and low frequency feedback. Delay time Controls the length of delay time. Feedback Controls the amount of effect signal routed back to the Input.
48 EQ The EQ programs are all 3 band parametric types with separate high and low shelving bands. Frequency Low shelving filter ranging from 20Hz to 5kHz. High shelving filter ranging from 500Hz to 20kHz. Three band filters ranging from 20Hz to 20kHz. Band wid th Low and high shelving filters have 2 different slopes.
49 Chorus These presets are capable of producing a smooth natural sounding stereo Chorus effect. The Hi Cut filter gives you the ability to make the Chorus very warm. Speed The speed of the Chorus, also known as Rate. Depth Adjusts the depth of the Chorus, also known as Intensity .
50 Mix between direct sound and effect. Out Level Controls the Output level of the block. Feedback Controls the amount of feedback in the Flanger . Note that this parameter can be negative, e.g. feedback in reversed phase. Cross Feedback Controls the amount of feedback between the two channels.
51 Phaser A Phaser in general is a group of comb filters that are swept back and forth by an LFO within a certain frequency range. When the comb filter sound is mixed with the direct signal, the moving phasing sound is created due to the constant moving phase cancelation of the combfilter frequencies in the direct signal.
52 Compr essor A Compressor is meant to reduce the dynamic content of the Input signal, and thereby keep a more constant level. When the Input signal exceeds the Threshold, the Compressor starts to reduce the signal according to the ratio. The Ratio describes how much the signal is reduced, e.
53 De-esser A De-esser is used for removing the sibilant sounds from instruments and especially voices. This is done dynamically , which means that it’ s not a static EQ filter but a dynamic filter that only cuts into the sound when the high frequencies are loud in the material.
