NONLIN2 STEREO EFFECTS REVERB
Congratulations with the purchase of your new Effects Reverb plug-in for PowerCore.
The NonLin2 Stereo Effects Reverb for PowerCore is another world class reverb directly ported from the System 6000. NonLin2 is an effect reverb, which differs from the
traditional natural sounding TC reverbs.
NonLin2 is capable of generating compact vocal ambience, percussive and dramatic
drum sounds, reverse reverbs and completely new “twisted” effects. Featuring an
amplitude envelope that is capable of rendering an untriggered gated reverb and a
‘twist’ parameter, which can radically alter the sound, this plug-in delivers a serious
advantage over other gated reverbs.
The NonLin2 plug-in runs on all available PowerCore at the common sample rates
from 32 kHz to 96 kHz.
The plug-in can be inserted in any VST or Audio Unit compatible host application as
Stereo-to-Stereo Effect or as Mono-To-Stereo Effect (depending on the host application
and the individual track settings).
The NonLin Stereo Effects Reverb algorithm occupies*:
Enjoy!

GLOBAL PLUG-IN CONTROLS
KEYBOARD COMMANDS
In most host applications, the NonLin2 Reverb supports keyboard commands for certain
functions. The following key commands are available for all plug-in parameters:
Key Commands in Mac OS X:
Fine Adjust = Apple key + mouse movement
Reset To Default = Alt key + mouse click
Key Commands in Windows:
Fine Adjust = Alt + mouse movement
Reset To Default = Shift + Control + mouse click
User Assignable Key Commands:
Depending on your host application, you have the ability to add your own keyboard
shortcuts to certain buttons. The supported buttons in NonLin2 are: Mem., A/B, the
previous/next preset buttons and the 2 page buttons: Main and Modify.
A right mouse click on the button will open a pop-up menu. Here you can select to
assign a new keyboard shortcut or to remove a previously assigned shortcut.
Note: The ability to use the assignable key commands highly depends on the host
application. Some applications do not pass key commands on to the plug-in.
SCROLL WHEEL SUPPORT
If you are using a host application that supports this feature, all of the NonLin2 knobs
and faders support scrolling on both Windows XP and Mac OS X. Simply roll your
mouse over a knob or slider and use the Scroll Wheel to increment / decrement the
associated parameter.
USER INTERFACE DISABLED
Should your PowerCore be fully loaded and there is not enough free processing on
your DSPs, the plug-in will come up in a “disabled” state. Should this occur, it is
advised to remove the plug-in from the mix.
Note: In case any PowerCore plug-in gets disabled either while loading a session or
during your work (e.g. you forgot to switch on PowerCore prior to loading a session),
you can always save your session without losing any of the plug-in settings. The last
setting of the plug-in will always be saved, even when it is in “disabled” state! This
also applies to saving presets.
