designed

from

This

means

have

to
get

effects

to
get

no-latency

monitoring

with

your

audio

card.

The

Direct

Pro

gives

you

all
the

capability

of
these

devices

in
one

easy

system

and

this

of
the

whole

process.

Master Reverb

This

reverb

can

sent

to
as
many

chan-

nels

as
you

wish,

using

the

send.

The

Reverb

only

ad-

justs

how

much

of
the

master

reverb

each

channel

receives.

Adjustments

to
the

ef-

fect are performed in this section.

Note: In order to record our reverb in

your multitrack software, you must select recording inputs 5,6. These inputs do not correspond to

physical inputs on the breakout box. Rather, they are virtual inputs that record the monitor mix.

•
DECA

: This determines how long the reverberated signal will last

•
DIFFUSION: Determines the amount of time early reverb reflections will precede late reflections. F

realistic reverb, make sure the diffusion is less than the decay time.
