1.2 About This Manual
While we’re very confident you’ll be able to use your new plug-in without reading this manual, we urge you
to have a quick look. There are several unique features and interesting options presented in UltraReverb
and a cursory glance will illuminate any features you may overlook. We’ll try to keep it all relevant and
highlight any tips or cool tricks for you. We also won’t cover much at all about the operation of your
plug-in host or the Macintosh or Windows environments, as their owner’s manuals or online help should
provide you with the answers you need. We’ve made every attempt to integrate the standard controls
and features from the major plug-in hosts into our UltraReverb plug-in so that you don’t have to learn
anything new. If you find the need to get more information from us than this manual can provide, please
visit our support forum available via our website (http://www.eventideaudio.com).
