REVERB TIPS:

  • Although it is possible to use a reverb plugin on a track insert, it is usually best to have your reverb(s) on a bus return and use the sends on each channel strip to send the apprpriate amount of dry signal to be processed. You must make sure the reverb plugin is set to 100% wet if you do this.
  • It can often work well to add a short (0.7 - 1.2 sec) room ambience to dry electronic signals (e.g. synth modules, D.l.'d guitar) .This simulates (to a limited extent) the effect of recording in a room. You can then add a longer reverb (e.g. 2 secs and upwards) as necessary for effect. This also works on close miked acoustic signals. This method gives your mix a lot of life without using too much reverb (a fault of many "home demos"). My autoload file has a short room set up on bus return 1 and a longer reverb on return 2.
  • If you want reverb without making a voice or instrument sound to distant, give it some predelay (50-70 milliseconds). This simulates the effect of sitting close to a stage and hearing the signal first then the reverb from the back, as opposed to sitting far away from the stage and hearing the reverb and signal at the same time.
  • To simulate distance set the predelay to very short. This simulates sitting at the back of a hall and hearing the sound from the stage almost at the same time as the echo from the back wall. Sounds from further awya will often send less bright than close sounds, so it can help to rfilter or EQ some top off.
