NONLIN2 STEREO EFFECTS REVERB

Congratulations with the purchase of your new TDM Effects Reverb plug-in. The
NonLin2 Stereo Effects Reverb is yet 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 plug-in can be inserted in Pro Tools HD as Stereo-to-Stereo Effect or as Mono-To­Stereo Effect (depending on the host application and the individual track settings).

Enjoy!
The TC Electronic Team

KEYBOARD COMMANDS

The TDM version of 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 = Option + mouse click

Key Commands in Windows:

Fine Adjust = Ctrl + mouse movement
Reset to Default = Alt + Control + mouse click

AUTOMATION

Please be aware that automation of certain parameters can cause audible artifacts.
In case you need to automate these parameters, you should take care that
changes only take place in parts where no audio is sent to the plug-in.

FOCUS FIELDS

You can place your own set of parameters in the 6 focus fields at the bottom
of the plug-in.

Making use of the focus fields can give you a better workflow, since you will not have
to switch pages all the time to find the parameters that you work with.
You can assign any parameter to the focus fields, and the focus fields are stored with
the session as well as when you save your presets.

To change the assignment:

• Press the Assign button. The Assign button as well as one of the Focus Fields will
be highlighted.
