138 CHAPTER 8 Effects Menu - Edit View QuickVerb Like Adobe Audition's two other reverb effects (Full Reverb and Reverb), QuickVerb allows you to add reverberation to your audio in order to simulate a different acoustic space. However, since it isn't convolution-based like Full Reverb and Reverb (which require more power to run, thus increasing the processing load on your system) QuickVerb is faster to use. This means it can be altered more quickly and effectively in Adobe Audition's Multitrack real-time environment, without the need for "locking" the effects to the track. The QuickVerb dialog Here are the major components of the QuickVerb dialog: Room Size Use this slider to set the size of the room you wish to simulate, or directly enter a value in the text box to the right. Low numbers equate to a smaller room; use higher numbers to create a larger virtual space. Decay The amount of reverberation decay is adjusted with this slider. You may also specify an exact value, measured in milliseconds, in the text box to the right. Diffusion This setting defines the "texture" of the reverb. Move the slider to the left if you want a reverb with more echo characteristics, while positions right of center will produce a smoother reverberation with fewer echoes. A text box is provided so that you can enter a value directly. High Cutoff Frequency This slider specifies the uppermost audio frequency at which the reverb effect can occur. You can enter the exact frequency in the text box to the right. Low Cutoff Frequency The lowermost audio frequency at which the reverb effect can occur is set with this control. The exact frequency may be entered directly in the text box to the right. Mixing The controls in this section determine the amount of reverb to mix in with the original audio source.
