Step-by-step

You can limit or expand the reverb within the stereo field by playing with its spread in the temporal shaper and the particle display.

Step 1: Adjust the spread in the Temporal ShaperIf you want the spread of the reverb to start out narrow and expand quickly over time, just drag the thumbs or lines.

Step 2: Limit the spread in the Particle DisplayYou may not want to spread out the reverb in the low end, since this may lead to a blurred sound. Limit the spread to a certain frequency range by dragging the line in the particle display.

Step 3: Adjust the density in the Temporal ShaperYou can also fine-tune the temporal behavior of the density. For example, go for a faster increase in density.
