There are three levels of tapped delays in the MULTIVERB ALPHA 2.0. These are what we call Even (E), Shortened (S), and Lengthened (L). (1's are Even, 2's are

Shortened, 3's are Lengthened) Even means that the delay taps are at evenly spaced intervals. Shortened means that as the taps approach the set delay, the intervals are closer together. As the taps approach the set delay in the

Lengthened mode they are farther apart.

In the types you will see an [m] and an [s], the [m] means mono and the [s] signifies stereo. The mono tapped delay has its left and right taps at the same delay points where the stereo taps are staggered. When using the stereo tapped delays the first right tap is half the delay time before the first left tap.

There also are three slopes used in the tapped delays, Flat, Reverse and Forward.

Flat has a flat linear response. Reverse increases in amplitude exponentially as the signal approaches the end. Forward exponentially decreases in amplitude as the signal approaches its end point.

TYPE 3 taps are dense and full. Use the longer tapped delay programs to add some expansiveness to short reverb patches. Use the longer tapped delays especially the Sloped algorithms to create a fundamental front end reverb.
