Makes sense, if the parameters are set right. On the PCM70, 'Tunnel' which sounds like it shold be a reverb algorithm is really just a six-voice delay. I guess I never paid much attention to the actual algorithm used until we've started these discussions. I just dial up 'vocal magic' or 'just plate' or whatever, and either just use it, or diddle with some of the settings a bit. Usually I pick a preset and diddle with either size or RT or the RT EQ, that's normally enough.
