In some cases, when the size is listed in meters, the Size parameter can be viewed as representing the longest dimension in a rectangular room. So, if the Size is at 30 meters, the virtual “room” would be a rectangle with 30 meters from front to back.</em></p><p><em>In reality, a room with a front-to-back dimension of 30 meters will almost always sound far richer than an algorithmic reverb with a Size of 30 meters. This has to do with the resonance density of the room, which is a pretty esoteric topic that I will tackle in a future blog post. Suffice it to say that higher resonance densities sound smoother, and digital algorithmic reverbs are hard pressed to achieve the resonance density of a fairly small room, to say nothing of a concert hall.</em></p>]]></content>
