Pre-Delay provides you with space between your dry signal and reverb signal. Shorter reverbs, on the other hand, can be brought up a bit more without adding mud. You don’t want your mix to feel like it’s lost in space. Tip – If you are using longer reverbs, keep them quieter in the mix. In FabFilter Pro-R, the size means “Space”. It all depends on what Reverb plugin you are using, for instance, in Valhalla Vintage Verb, the size is labeled as “Decay”. Larger reverbs will give you a longer, fuller sound, while shorter reverbs will provide you with a narrower, more intimate sound. It is important to note that size can also impact the stereo image. The size parameter gives you control over the size of your space. The smaller the size, the shorter your reverbs will be, and vice versa. What space do I want to put my sounds in?Ĭhoose the type of reverb that suits your mix in the best way possible, whether you are using it on multiple instruments or a single source. If the reverb you are using has presets, try testing them out to get a sense of what they sound like.

Plus, setting up a send rather than sticking your reverb directly on the track gives you more control of your sound. We can then send the sounds that we want to be effected to our reverb bus. This is why we want to create send/aux/bus channels to put our reverbs on instead. Using reverb effects on every channel can cut into your CPU very fast. There are a few steps that we like to take when adding reverb, which include: With reverb, you can bring listeners into a cave, a concert hall, a cathedral, a chamber, or a smaller, more intimate room. Reverb provides mixes with a sense of depth, though it also provides listeners with clues as to where the sound exists. The environment a sound is in can give it several different qualities, including large, thin, dark, bright, and more. The environment informs every sound we hear in real life. Reverb effects in your DAW simulate natural or unnatural reverberations. In real-life, reverb hits a hard surface and bounces back at the listener at varying amplitudes and times to create complex echoes. Reverberation or the reverb effect is meant to replicate external acoustics so that we can use them in our mix.
