Basically, when the density is a 0% it sounds like 8 nested delays. The "Expert Reverb 2" variation is simply a different matrix structure of these 8 delay lines.

What types of delays are being adjusted? Allpass delays, parallel combs, FDN delay lines, output taps?

I am not sure if the delays in the tank are allpass delays , but I suspect that they are. When the density parameter is increased the repeats become diffuse in proportion to the lengths.

For the people at Ensoniq who knew what the algorithm was like under the hood, having all the delay lengths available for adjustment at the tuning level would have been great for creating distinctive presets. For your average user, about 98% of the possible delay settings are going to sound really bad. I think Ensoniq must have had more trust in mankind than I do.

Precisely. I would go one step further and say that it is highly unlikely that the average user would create a useful reverb preset.
That's why people like me did the presets for the box...
