6 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P 1. INTRODUCTION With the BEHRINGER VIRTUALIZERPRO you have purchased a very powerful multi-effects processor which offers both first-class reverb sounds and various other effect algorithms.
7 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P 1. 2 Before you begin Your BEHRINGER VIRTUALIZERPRO was carefully packed in the factory and the packaging was designed to protect the unit from rough handling. Nevertheless, we recommend that you carefully examine the packaging and its contents for any signs of physical damage, which may have occurred in transit.

11 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P 1.4 .1 Reverb and delay algorithms Cathedral : Reverb program that generates long and dense reverberation, much like the natural reverb ambience found in churches or cathedrals. Particularly suitable for solo instruments and voices.
12 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P Reverse Reverb : A reverb program with an inverted amplitude envelope, i.e. the effect starts softly and then increases in volume.
13 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P Tremolo & Delay : Since trip hop has become trendy, this effect originally found in guitar amps is used to produce a more or less fast and intensive variation of volume (with an additional panorama effect included in the DSP1024P).
14 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P 2. OPERATION 2. 1 Effects structure Fig. 2.1: Effects structure 2. 2 Selecting presets The VIRTUALIZERPRO stores 100 user-definable presets. After power-up, the unit automatically recalls the preset last used. To select another preset, use the JOG WHEEL to enter the preset number of your choice.
15 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P loading the data, the VIRTUALIZERPRO enables the preset and the dot disappears. This brief interruption avoids the direct activation of every preset, as you scroll through the preset list with the JOG WHEEL.
16 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P The third page allows for configuring controller commands. On its right-hand side, the DISPLAY shows a capital C (= Controller). The JOG WHEEL selects one of the following four controller modes: Display Mode 0 No controller dat a are transm itted.
17 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P can be routed via the VIRTUALIZERPROs MIDI THRU jack to your multi-effects processor. s MIDI THRU The MIDI THRU jack is used to loop through incoming MIDI data, i.e. any control data received at the MIDI IN of the VIRTUALIZERPRO can be transmitted via the MIDI THRU jack to other MIDI devices/instruments.
18 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P Connect the two Input phone jacks with the Aux Send outputs of the mixing console, and the Output jacks of the VIRTUALIZERPRO with the Aux Return inputs of the console. If you want to use the BEHRINGER VIRTUALIZERPRO in mono or dual mode, connect one audio channel (left or right) to one aux bus.
19 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P 3. 4 Using the VIRTUALIZERPRO as an effects device for instruments With its extensive MIDI implementation the VIRTUALIZERPRO can also be used, for instance, as a multi- effects device in a guitar rack. Of course, you can connect it up in both stereo and mono.
20 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P The VIRTUALIZERPRO may also be inserted between the outputs of a keyboard and the inputs of a mixing console. If required, adjust the levels with the OPERATING LEVEL switch. 3. 5 Using the VIRTUALIZERPRO in a MIDI system With its built-in MIDI interface the VIRTUALIZERPRO can be integrated into any MIDI system.
21 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P 4. TECHNICAL BACKGROUND 4. 1 Reverberation and reflection Prior to simulating the physical phenomena of reverberation and reflection, it is necessary to analyze how reverb is generated, and how it is perceived by human hearing.
22 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P modulations can clearly be heard when occurring in the midrange frequency band, due to the sensitivity of human hearing. The ear immediately detects changes in midrange frequencies, while its sensitivity to frequency modulation in the extreme low end of the frequency spectrum is reduced.

24 VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P 5. INSTALLATION 5. 1 Mains connection The mains connection of the VIRTUALIZERPRO is made by using a mains cable and a standard IEC receptacle. It meets all of the international safety certification requirements. + Please make sure that all units have a proper ground connection.
