    How import Ir

    I use no processing. Min phase means the phase response of the original IR is basically discarded and replaced in order to, well make it minimum phase. Your IR vendor may or may already not have done this processing. Min phase can be helpful if you want to mix various IRs and not have to worry...

    ICONS accurate input calibration

    I just meant that since it's a known reference by convention( a 1KHz sine wave at .755V RMS), we know what the peak voltage is, since it's a sine wave. So an interface advertising a 16dBu max input therefore means, we can feed it a 1KHz 4.89V RMS sine wave without clipping. That sine wave has...

    ICONS accurate input calibration

    dBu units are specified in reference to 0.775V RMS. So 0dBu = .775V RMS. 0.775V RMS because that's the voltage required that results in 1 mW of power into a 600Ω load. 600Ω comes from the telephone era, the impedance of the telephone transmission lines. For dBV units, the reference is 1V RMS...

    ICONS accurate input calibration

    Correct, an amp modeler needs to relate a physical voltage level to the resulting level in the digital domain. For H/W modelers, since they know their own input frontend design, they know this relationship and it's not a problem. For amp modeler plugins, given that audio interfaces are all...

Here's what it sounds...

    Keeley Nocturne Andy Timmons Reverb Pedal

    Not necessarily no - the Halo is four modulated delay lines (2 for the L, 2 for the R) with the modulating LFOs almost but not quite in quadrature. In addition the input to the 1/4 delay lines is phase inverted which all contributes to the stereo spread.
  44. AlbertA

    Keeley Nocturne Andy Timmons Reverb Pedal

    This is what intrigued me when I learned it was only done with delay, yes. I have the pedal here. Like I said, when you play legato, the repeat wash away in a halo, hence the name. Do a staccato, you hear them. 🤷‍♂️

    It's possible they use diffusion in this one yeah, there's no diffusion on the Halo though.
  48. AlbertA

    Keeley Nocturne Andy Timmons Reverb Pedal

    The halo is - if you play legato, the repeats kinda get...well Haloey :) staccato attack you can hear the repeats clearly.
  49. AlbertA

    Keeley Nocturne Andy Timmons Reverb Pedal

    When they first unveiled the Halo I thought they used diffusion to - but no, it's 4 modulated delay lines (nerd out here)
  50. AlbertA

    Keeley Nocturne Andy Timmons Reverb Pedal

    Yeah - It's like they said, imagine the Halo delay reverby sound but without the identifiable repeats in the tail. I think it's the same housing as the Halo Core, same sort of knob style as well.

    I do find their version of the "grid" to be fairly limited. You can't criss-cross between paths you cannot split from 1A/1B into 2A or 2B - you have to send it all the way to the "output" to be able to forward to 2A/2B from 1A/1B. You can't merge path 1B and continue it after the merge, stuff...
