Reverb

Send us a text


Music is meant to be heard in an appropriate acoustical
environment. But many times, we have to record in a space that
does not have the right sound to it. Artificial reverb is often
the solution.


In this episode, I talk about good room sound in a studio, and
the earliest methods of creating a reverberation sound. That
started with spring reverb, then acoustic echo chambers, tape
delay, plate reverbs, and finally the digital reverbs that are
used today on most recordings.


I discuss the origins of those techniques for creating reverb,
and the strengths and weaknesses of each, along with my
impression of how each of them sounds.


I also provide my own insights into using reverb. What kind? How
can we modify the basic sound? And how much reverb is
appropriate. And maybe no reverb at all is best.


Thanks for listening, subscribing, and commenting. I am always
looking for your questions and suggestions for future topics.
