15. the characteristics and style of the reverb 28 Perception of Reverb types may vary from person to person This is a rather subjective issue to discuss describe or even define However over the years a general perception of basic reverb types has evolved We choose to briefly describe the Reverb types found in the M350 like this TC Classic Hall The TC Classic Hall simulates a rather large Hall and preserves the natural characteristics of the source material This is excellent for many studio applications requiring medium to long decay times and especially on vocal material Cathedral Where the TC Classic Hall is a reverb with a smooth diffuse field the Large Cathedral has a much more uneven diffused field Emphasis on the reflections deriving from many hard surfaces and the high amount of Lo Color naturally occurring in this type of rooms give an excellent simulation of a large Cathedral Vocal Reverb This preset will match and refine vocal sources which need that extra something The Vocal Reverb preset gives you a soft and mellow tone that is identical to the reflections you get from medium sized rooms with wooden surfaces Use it to obtain a personal yet subtle and agile sound on your vocals Live Vocal For live purposes a rather grainy and bright Reverb is needed to cut through the typical background noise at live locations The Live Reverb should be used with medium to long Decay times and will wo
