If you wish to process the left and right audio channels simultaneously ( couple mode), press both ENGINE keys together. In couple mode both ENGINE LEDs light up. Whenever you edit one of the two audio channels and then switch to couple [...]

11 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P 1.4 .1 Reverb and delay algorithms Cathedral : Reverb program that generates long and dense reverberation, much like the natural reverb ambience found in churches or cathedrals. Particularly suitable for solo instruments and voices. VARIATION modifies the decay time, EDITA adjusts the differences between tiled and ang[...]

12 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P Reverse Reverb : A reverb program with an inverted amplitude envelope, i.e. the effect starts softly and then increases in volume. This effect used to be created by playing a tape in reverse direction, recording the reverb signal, and then playing back the tape in forward direction again, with the result that the reverb [...]

13 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P Tremolo & Delay : Since trip hop has become trendy, this effect  originally found in guitar amps  is used to produce a more or less fast and intensive variation of volume (with an additional panorama effect included in the DSP1024P). The modulation speed is controlled with VARIATION , the intensity with EDIT[...]

This brief interruption avoids the direct activation of every preset, as you scroll through the preset list with the JOG WHEEL. Otherwise incomplete parameter remnants of presets could reach the audio outputs of the VIRTUALIZERPRO[...]

16 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P The third page allows for configuring controller commands. On its right-hand side, the DISPLAY shows a capital C (= Controller). The JOG WHEEL selects one of the following four controller modes: Display Mode 0 No controller dat a are transm itted. 1 Controll er data are received bu t not transmitted. 2 Controll er [...]

17 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P can be routed via the VIRTUALIZERPROs MIDI THRU jack to your multi-effects processor. s MIDI THRU The MIDI THRU jack is used to loop through incoming MIDI data, i.e. any control data received at the MIDI IN of the VIRTUALIZERPRO can be transmitted via the MIDI THRU jack to other MIDI devices/instruments. s MIDI [...]

18 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P Connect the two Input phone jacks with the Aux Send outputs of the mixing console, and the Output jacks of the VIRTUALIZERPRO with the Aux Return inputs of the console. If you want to use the BEHRINGER VIRTUALIZERPRO in mono or dual mode, connect one audio channel (left or right) to one aux bus. + Turn down the vol[...]

19 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P 3. 4 Using the VIRTUALIZERPRO as an effects device for instruments With its extensive MIDI implementation the VIRTUALIZERPRO can also be used, for instance, as a multi- effects device in a guitar rack. Of course, you can connect it up in both stereo and mono. The following hints illustrate the VIRTUALIZER PROs v[...]

20 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P The VIRTUALIZERPRO may also be inserted between the outputs of a keyboard and the inputs of a mixing console. If required, adjust the levels with the OPERATING LEVEL switch. 3. 5 Using the VIRTUALIZERPRO in a MIDI system With its built-in MIDI interface the VIRTUALIZERPRO can be integrated into any MIDI system.

21 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P 4. TECHNICAL BACKGROUND 4. 1 Reverberation and reflection Prior to simulating the physical phenomena of reverberation and reflection, it is necessary to analyze how reverb is generated, and how it is perceived by human hearing. In a concert hall the sound the listener hears comprises both the source signals (e.g. acousti[...]

22 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P modulations can clearly be heard when occurring in the midrange frequency band, due to the sensitivity of human hearing. The ear immediately detects changes in midrange frequencies, while its sensitivity to frequency modulation in the extreme low end of the frequency spectrum is reduced. Frequency modulation can al[...]

23 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P Sender Receiver Speaker Microphone Room Plate Fig. 4.2: Room reflections and reverb plate reflections Spring reverb devices use a similar principle, but their reverb sound is of inferior quality compared to a properly adjusted reverb plate. In particular, dynamic signals such as drums have a highly compressed and flat[...]

24 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P 5. INSTALLATION 5. 1 Mains connection The mains connection of the VIRTUALIZERPRO is made by using a mains cable and a standard IEC receptacle. It meets all of the international safety certification requirements. + Please make sure that all units have a proper ground connection. For your own safety, do not remove the g[...]
