Q

How is CAD used to make reverb?

A

TC Electronic (M3000’s manufacturer) uses CAD to virtually build any room or environment and then calculate the algorithm based on the dimensions of that space all within software

Q

VSS algorithm accuracy with CAD

A

CAD allows the algorithms to not be fixed to any one type of room or environment, which makes them more technically accurate

Q

Input selector troubleshooting

A

When all sample rate indicator lights are flashing on the front panel, this means that no clock is present; or the M3000 can’t lock to the incoming clock

Q

Mix

A

This can be set to 100%, meaning that no direct signal will be present. Or Mix, which will combine the wet and dry signal. In this case the Bypass button will serve as a dry/wet switch

Clock/Sample rate Sync
The M3000 to lock to an incoming digital sample rate or external sync (word clock)
26
Clock/Sample rate Clock
The M3000 will lock to the selected input format
27
Clock/Sample rate Digital
If using AES/EBU or S/PDIF the M3000 will switch the clock to digital
28
Dither
The M3000 can output dither from 8 through 22 bit resolution
29
Setup column: Routing
``` Serial Parallel Dual Input Dual Mono Linked Preset Glide ```
30
Serial
Stereo input/output mode where output of Engine 1 feeds the input of Engine 2, and is useful for feeding the output of a dynamics processor from Engine 1 into a time-based processor on Engine 2. Compressing, gating, or de-essing the signal before sending it into the verb or delay
31
Parallel
Both Engines will work independently and the outputs will be mixed down to left and right, and this is useful when feeding the M3000 with one source, having that signal processed by both Engines independently and then sending to their respective outputs.
32
What should you not use Parallel with and why?
You shouldn't use it with a stereo source, because of the mult at the input before the Engines and directly after the Engines, it will destroy your stereo image sending your left input to the right output and right input to the left output
33
Dual input
This is a dual mono in and stereo out mode. The only difference between Dual Input and Parallel is the mult at the input. With that absent, this allows the user to get two different effects with separate inputs, only the outputs will be shared
34
Dual mono
The Engines are split into two independent mono effect units. Left feeds Engine 1 right feeds Engine 2
35
Linked
The two Engines are linked together. Anything done on one Engine will done to the other (aka stereo)
36
Preset Glide
A one time fade between presets. This allows for very smooth transitions when switch from one effect to another. The Glide Time can be set under UTIL/MIDI
37
Analog inputs ranges
Consumer range: -16 dBu to 10 dBu | Professional range: -6 dBv to +16 dBv
38
Analog outputs ranges
Consumer range: -10 dBu to +16 dBu | Professional range: -16 dBv to +6 dBv
39
Input peak meter (maximum performance)
Should read approximately -6 dB to -3 dB
40
Setup Column: Utility/MIDI | Viewing angle

41
Setup Column: Utility/MIDI | Glide time
This sets the glide time for the incoming preset when routing is set to preset glide

60
Using Reverb Wizard
Select the application that processor will be used for (music/post). Based on your selection, the M3000 will give you different sources to choose from. Then you choose the size of the reverb. After you've chosen all your features, Reverb Wizard will provide a bank of factory presets. Use the adjust wheel to scroll through presets, and select OK when you found what you want. It will be loaded onto the engine you opened the Reverb Wizard on.
