Elvo has a quick setup guide at the bottom of the page, this puts the effects in very plain english without expecting you to read through the physics.

It's a great guide - although there used to be a more thorough version on the web too with a specific buggy setup guide - if elvo is reading this I'd be interested to know where it's gone!
