Reverb Tip
Cool reverb tip I received from a cool guy:
Blending early reflections and reverb tails -TrueVerb and Renaissance Reverb Love the sound of TrueVerb's simulated space but want to also have the smooth reverb tails of the Renaissance Reverb? Want to get the best of both worlds? For a single insert chain, place TrueVerb in the chain, followed immediately by Renaissance Reverb. We'll set TrueVerb first, so bypass Renaissance Reverb for the time being. Load a preset you like or create your own. Turn the Reverb signal portion off by clicking the blue square at the bottom right-hand corner (next to the word Reverb). That way you are disabling True Verb's reverb tail section and using only the direct and early reflection signals. Now, engage Renaissance Reverb by taking it out of bypass mode. Choose a preset or create a custom setting, and take the "early ref." slider all the way down to "off." Now, by adjusting the Renaissance Reverb Wet/Dry sliders, you control the blend of TrueVerb's rooms with Renaissance Reverb tails for a killer one-two punch!

Most reverbs are now stereo out, if not stereo in/out but 'back in the (analog) day' many reverbs were mono out. A technique I'd use would be to run the reverb out into a stereo chorus using only the chorus outs to feed the reverb return. It worked in a stereo PA system for a fat sound as well as recording. The effect could be tailored at the chorus wet/dry balance, going from 50/50 to full wet for some cool spacial effects. Just something else to try if you want to see how effects can be interrelated. rd |

Actually I've been doing something similar. I've never liked plug-in reverb tails, but I like the early reflections, so I run an aux for ER (TrueVerb) and another for tail (outboard). The independent control helps position things better, more/less ER for depth/up-front, more/less tail for apparent volume. |

And it was up front and personal, all sweaty and intimate in your face rockin' the snot out of your psyche. We need more of that. --fletch |
