Hello,

Excuse my rather rudimentary question but could anyone please explain, in
layman's terms, the idea behind having EQ and something called "damping" on
some reverb gear ?

Thanks a lot,

Daniel



damping is where the high or low frequencies are reduced over time.
Certain materials absorb different frequencies differently, so it means
you can replicate say a carpeted room by more damping than say a stone
chamber.
Someone else will explain it much better than me I hope!
