Banks 13-14: the Ambience Programs
Program Descriptions
The prrograms listed above for the AMBIENCE program
were designed to emulate the real spaces typically
required for music, jingle, and post-production
work.
1 Very Large Ambience
Resembles a very large ambient space (large shopping
mall, parking garage, warehouse) that has far
more "clutter" than a concert hall or performance
environment. Lowering the RT LEVEL reduces the
clutter while maintaining the sense of a very large
ambient space.
2 Large Ambience
Similar to Very Large Ambience, but less spacious.
Provides the ambience of a large symmetrical room.
3 Medium Ambience
Similar to Large Ambience, but smaller. Imagine a
large courtroom, or a lecture room — then load the
preset.
4 Small Ambience
Similar to Medium Ambience, but smaller — typical
lobby, or small lounge.
5 Strong Ambience
The room size is larger than Medium Ambience, but the
RT LEVEL has been reduced to provide a strong
"wash" of ambience with a relatively short decay time.
6 Heavy Ambience
Resembles a large rectangular performance space
with musicians or performers positioned in the middle
of the space. Microphone proximity to the musicians or
performers can be simulated by adjusting the MIX
control. If the 480L is used with a mixing console and
interfaced with stereo sends and returns, the MIX
control should be left at ALL FX and the level of the
sends will determine proximity effect.
7 Ambient Hall
Fast, dense ambient attack. Reverberant characteristics
of Large RHall.
8 Announcer
Adds a very useful ambient spaciousness to a dry
announcer's dialog track.
9 Closet
Just as you would imagine — it even feels cramped!
0 Gated Ambience
Very strong ambience with fast decay — just add your
favorite snare drum!
