Features
Early Schroeder reverberators were characterized by a combination of key elements, each contributing to the unique sonic characteristics of the reverb. These included:
Series All-Pass Filters:
- Connection of multiple all-pass filters in series.
- These filters, also known as diffusers, provided colorless high-density echoes in the late impulse response of the reverberator.
- Note: Longer impulse responses of these filters might exhibit characteristics similar to feedback comb-filters.
Parallel Feedback Comb Filters:
- Implementation of a parallel bank of feedback comb filters.
- Each feedback comb filter simulated a pair of parallel walls, allowing customization of delay-line lengths to emulate sound propagation from one wall to the opposite and back.
- The feedback comb filters aimed to create a psychoacoustically appropriate fluctuation in the reverberator frequency response.
Mixing Matrix:
- Inclusion of a mixing matrix to blend the outputs of the series all-pass filters and parallel feedback comb filters.
- This matrix played a crucial role in shaping the overall reverb characteristics.
Understanding these foundational features provides insight into the design philosophy of Schroeder Reverb, highlighting its ability to produce versatile and natural-sounding reverberation that has stood the test of time in the world of audio processing.
