HMD Black Vortex interface

01Forward / Back

Sets spatial depth. Pull toward Back to cut the direct signal and raise early reflections, pushing the source deeper; push Forward to drop reflections and apply a mid-band boost that brings it closer.

02Vortex Visualizer

A live view of the spatial field — the vortex reacts as you move elements forward and back through the mix.

03Dimension Modes

Sets the room character for the Back position: 1 is a medium space, 2 is the smallest (great for drums and percussion), 3 is the largest for deep background or creative effects. Only affects Back.

04Up / Down

A simple gain control to fine-tune the overall level of the processed signal.
