More Shaperbox Reverb Tricks 

no better way to start the morning than with the low and informative voice of a dan worrall video

I bought this specifically for the Reverb Shaper a few weeks back. I haven't used the reverb module a ton yet but I LOVE the noise shaper. It's absolutely perfect for adding a little processed flourish to acoustic drum shells while still keeping them natural sounding (especially snares) and is 1000x easier to use and more inspiring / flexible than my traditional white noise generator setup in Reaper. I appreciate the video series on the ShaperBox stuff or I never would have even known it existed!

It always makes me laugh so much to see you tweaking those plugins, and "magically" figuring out some unexpected results! (unexpected result to me, but most probably targeted result for you!), like the "forward backward reverb tail", and the stop of playback head to silence the reverb. Nice! You are a Sound wizard, from whom I learn and for whom I'll always be thankful, as having insane fun through geeky audio stuff is a beautiful way to see music, and to create the unexpected... thanks. I have to admit I'm always waiting impatiently for your next video, to the point that when one comes, I find myself watching a few old ones again! Cheers! Shine!

I’ll forever be a Dan’s fan

Shaperbox is such a good tool. I use it in all my projects and as you have shown it is quite simple to embellish sounds. Cableguys are value for money compared to other plug-in providers.

I don't have all these fancy plugins, but I have a modular DAW and I can easily recreate all these effects chains. Thank you for an inspiration 👍

I love Shaperbox! Im finally getting into the nitty gritty of it all. Much thanks to your videos about it.

That “snare” sounds great, lots of body. I always assumed cajons had a snare wire or something on the inside

the music in this one might be my favourite reverse reverb on snares sound great and with the unique impulses this seems like a good way to easily make that effect, trance gating the reverse reverb would probably sound interesting too, thanks for the ideas!

Thank you so much for this absolutely awesome info Dan, however, I was MOST impressed with how you turned a 'not so toy' drum snare into one of the best sounding 80's snares outside of a genuine 80's track I can remember hearing!

That time shaper on the guitar at the end is a super cool effect. I love using effects on guitar that are outside the box like that . Great vid as always.

Shaperbox is one of those plugins thats just so incredibly useful in a way that makes making music more fun. Cableguys really knocked it out of the park.

If I could offer one touch of advice that may or may not be received in the same way as others, but I would love to hear your examples for an extra bar or two any time you show anything off. I'd love to be able to "settle into" any audible changes before hearing something new so I can feel the impact, rather than observe it in passing. Otherwise, as always, fantastic video!

Mind-blowing!!! 😲

Some really useful stuff here (especially when it comes to TImeshaper, which I find ~way~ harder to wrap my head around than the other modules for whatever reason). Thanks, Dan.

That reverse snare riff is awesome, carries the track on its own

I wish there was a feature in RU-vid only for this channel where I can switch off Dan speaking and just hear what's happening inside the video, his mixing psychologies are so intricate and complex that him just fiddling with a plugin sounds so musical, its like a performance in itself😂

you need to record some narrations, Dan. or e-books. people in the comments start the mornings with your voice, but I am listening to your tutorials before going to sleep. the voice is mild and still and the background ambient textures are smooth, so both combined create a nice calming atmosphere. aside of emotions, the best thing in these tutorials is their informativity. always learning a lot from them. many thanks and best regards from Ukraine. stay safe.

I've always wanted to do that reverse reverb effect before the snare hit... Now I know how. Thanks Dan! Greetings from Czech Republic

I love these in-depth videos of plugins from you! Man, would I like to see such in-depth tips & tricks for reaper! :)

holy shit that 808 kick slaps

that bass sound was amazing, how did you made that ?

Nice to know that our kids will potentially be listening to "Dan Junior" on whatever RU-vid becomes over the next 10-20 years. :)

Genius. I really should pick up shaperbox and mess with this stuff. So many cool textures and possibilities

such a cool plugin. imo the only thing missing feature would be the ability to trigger each shaper's envelope separately via MIDI, but i guess that's a quite specific use case...

Very good tutorial, thank you. Shaperbox 3 is great .👍✌

THANK YOU

Hmm, I have enough of reverb plugins. But, professional video as always by mr Worrall.

Hey Dan, can you have a look at the VarietyOfSound plugins? He's been rewriting them all as 64 bit VST3, and they have gotten revisions that make them absolutely amazing. His new reverbs are incredible, and he has a third one coming! I've been a fan of them since I came across them in like 2015 or so, and getting them "back" into my life with the 64 bit updates has been a true joy!

Dan could post a video on the proper way to operate an orbital spindle sander; I'd still be enthralled. Thank you!

I'd love to hear how you think Bitwig's Polygrid compares to Reason, and anything you might create with such a toolbox!

Its probably designed to be a creative/sound design tool though I simply love using it for mix duties. If only it had an EQ - then it would be my go-to channel strip.

Looking forward to trying these! Kind of surprised that this is a paid update for those of us who already own shaperbox 3 though.

A creative "tip": you can use any sample as IR, doesn't have to be a reverb/cab etc.

always the best!

Hey Dan. Need help. Can you make a video regarding the Cubase stock compressors and maybe the vocal chain? I need to see if they are any good.

You're shaming me, Dan! I bought SB3 last year but so far haven't even used more than 5% of its features. I know it can do all these things, I just need to devote some time to learning it.

Imagine running different Shaperbox patterns at each bar of this song and automating some of the Shaperbox modules parameters 🤯

Hello Dan, what Input highlighter are you using in this video?

fire

The price of Shaperbox seems especially good today. $99. Or, $179 for everything Cableguys makes. Is it normally that affordable?

Dan I saw a video about adding stereo width using comb filters. I think i understood the concept. Could it be that combfilters for stereo-width be a better alternative than haas delay and other known methods? Video i talked about was a short from kilohearts. :)

Arguably shaper box reverb doesn't even sound good
