ADOBE AUDITION 1.5
User Guide
Note: Because the Full Reverb effect can take longer to process than the other effects, it may
not be the best choice for using in real time in Multitrack View. If you use the Full Reverb
effect on a track, consider locking the track afterwards so that it doesn’t slow down your
editing process.
To use the Full Reverb effect:
1 Select an audio range (Edit View) or track (Multitrack View).
2 In the Effects tab of the Organizer window, expand Delay Effects, and double-click
Full Reverb.
3 Click the General Reverb tab, the Early Reflections tab, or the Coloration tab, and
specify the options you want on each.
Note that when any of the reverb characteristics are modified, a new impulse is built to
simulate the environment you specify. (An “impulse” is the data by which every other
sample in a waveform is multiplied.) The impulse can be several megabytes in size,
requiring more CPU processing power, so you might have to wait a few seconds after
clicking Preview for the reverb to be built. The results, however, are much more natural
sounding and easier to tailor. Once built, the preview generally runs in real time, and
subsequent previews don’t require rebuilding the impulse, nor does adjusting any of the
Mixing options or selecting Include Direct.
4 Specify any Mixing options you want.
For more information, search for “General Reverb tab options,” “Early Reflections
tab options,” and “Coloration tab options” in Help.
Using the QuickVerb effect
Like Full Reverb and Reverb, the QuickVerb effect adds reverberation to audio to simulate
a different acoustic space. It is faster to use, however, because it isn’t convolution-based
like Full Reverb and Reverb (both of which increase the processing load on your system).
As a result, you can make real-time changes more quickly and effectively in Multitrack
View, without needing to “lock” effects to a track. For slightly faster processing and more
control, you can also use the Studio Reverb effect. For more information, see “Using the
Studio Reverb effect” on page 153.
