Plate settings are the following:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Smaertelectronix ambience</strong>: &rsquo;Gating Amount - 0&rsquo;, &rsquo;Gating Attack&quot; - 10 ms&rsquo;, &rsquo;Gating Release - 10 ms&rsquo;, &rsquo;Decay Time - 2225 ms&rsquo;, &rsquo;Decay Diffusion - 50%&rsquo;, &rsquo;Decay Hold - off&rsquo;, &rsquo;Shape Size - 16%&rsquo;, &rsquo;Shape Predelay - 0 ms&rsquo;, &rsquo;Shape Width - 100%&rsquo;, &rsquo;Shape Quality - 100%&rsquo;, &rsquo;Shape Variation - 0&rsquo;, &rsquo;EQ Bass Frequency - 43 Hz&rsquo;, &rsquo;EQ Bass Gain - &minus;7.8 dB&rsquo;, &rsquo;EQ Treble Frequency - 5044 Hz&rsquo;, &rsquo;EQ Treble Gain - &minus;3.7 dB&rsquo;, &rsquo;Damping Bass Frequency - 158 Hz&rsquo;, &rsquo;Damping Bass Amount - 87%&rsquo;, &rsquo;Damping Treble Frequency - 8127 Hz&rsquo;, &rsquo;Damping Treble Amount - 32%&rsquo;, &rsquo;Dry - &minus;Inf&rsquo;, &rsquo;Wet - 0dB&rsquo;.</li> </ul> <p>Spring Reverb - Bass and Guitar - recorded from the spring reverb tank<strong>: Accutronics </strong><strong>4</strong><strong>EB</strong><strong>2</strong><strong>C</strong><strong>1</strong><strong>B</strong>: &rsquo;Dry Mix - 0%&rsquo;, &rsquo;Wet Mix - 100%&rsquo;</p> <p>Plate<em> </em>reverb samples correspond to a VST audio plug-in, while spring<em> </em>reverb samples are recorded using an analog reverb tank which is based on 2 springs placed in parallel.</p> <p>The recordings are downsampled to 16 kHz. Also, since the plate reverb samples have a fade-out applied in the last 0.5 seconds of the recordings, we process the spring reverb samples accordingly.</p>
