Today, we are going to be taking one stereo reverb and using it across every instrument in our track! We are going to be using a track that was recorded at Sunset Sound, and is completely live. Everything on this track was done in one take!
The reverb technique we are using today is one that was used quite a lot back in the days before all the plugins and digital tricks we have now. Back in the day, you would only have 2 or 3 reverbs on your console, and maybe 1 or 2 delays, and then you would mix a record with just that.
Today we are going to be recreating that reverb technique!
We are so used to have 20 instances of reverbs, or more, and all kinds of different delays and things going on. Sometimes it is nice to just find something you like the sound of, and restrict yourself, and then experiment a little bit.
On this track, we are only going to be using the Sunset Sound Studio Reverb plugin, and will be using that on all the instruments on this song. We will take this reverb, remove the pre-delay, so it is down to nothing, and then we are going to send from different instruments, and use different amounts of pre-delay each time. This will make feel like they are in the same room, but all in different positions in the room, giving them a bit of space, without making it feel like there is just a wall of reverb coming towards you.
This is going to be a lot of fun! Don’t forget to download the multitracks so you can try this technique too!

What are your favorite reverb tricks?

@aleksamrkela831 3 года назад

I create a gated snare plate without using a gate: I take a plate, make it short and timed to the tempo and compress the devil out of it. :D

@markacton2254 3 года назад

The Abbey Rd trick is always a good one to allow you to use more reverb and not let it get in the way. Also, occasionally I like to time the pre-delay on things like the snare to create a rhythmic effect. Sometimes I like to have a completely dry vocal and the reverb in parallel too. Mostly, I just don't know what I'm doing and hope for the best.

@paulphilippart7395 3 года назад

Great stuff,makes me miss using a couple of 2 track Studers with vari speed from 15 to 30 ips as pre-delay,usually some AMS delays,always needed another channel,into a colossal EMT plate,miss that motor creaking away like a tardis,...man I loved that sound,the pre delay was always the key for multi channel use, as much as authentic that colossal arrangement was,plug ins aint half nailing it.

@ArielTavori 3 года назад

I like putting DearVR inserts on my mono tracks to put them in a 'real space' before I send them to reverb (lately it's usually R4 or iRCam). Might be interesting to try this trick on my stereo tracks though..?

@philippgrunert8776 3 года назад

@Kevin i read CLA never Puts reverb on direct mics in Drums, only on the room and maybe overheads. I think this along those lines.

@thimovijfschaft3271 3 года назад

You can also low pass the predelays with different amounts, so that the instruments that are further away, sound further away in the reverb :)

@clairerogerpembery2920 3 года назад

I love this - my reverb was either too complicated and confused or it didn't add any depth. Now my singer sits at the front with the instruments behind them. To make my life easier, I create 3 bus "layers": front, middle and back, and route all the instruments into the them parallel wherever I want to put them on the "stage". Each of these buses goes into my reverb channel.

@amado5490 2 месяца назад

I see. So instead of creating one delay channel strip for every instrument like Warren does (where you determine how delayed you want that instrument to feed into the reverb bus), you create three busses with a different amount of delay each and send every instrument to those depending on where you want them to sit on the stage. And those three busses will turn feed into the reverb bus. Sounds good!

@TNTales 3 года назад

I used to just put one mild reverb on the master bus to glue it together, but this will give me so much more control. Your videos are proof that you don't need a bunch of special gear, hour long tricks, etc. There are simple, beautiful sounding techniques you can use. So thank you. Please do more of these digitized versions of simple classic tricks. Please please please.

@Producelikeapro 3 года назад

Thanks ever so much Chris! Yes, far more control this

@pauldalby8196 3 года назад

@Gerhard Schöner I felt the same way about the spring setting. I actively thought, "that's the best-sounding spring reverb I've ever heard." Couldn't believe it.

@zachary963 3 года назад

Listening to you play around with the drum predelay settings, and I’d just like to point out: Sound travels through air at about 1 foot per millisecond, so if you want your drums to feel 10 feet behind the vocal, 10 milliseconds should get you there! Also, the more predelay, it might be beneficial to add more of the wet signal into a mix. Of course, that’s if you want a strictly “realistic” sound

@gaganbakana 4 месяца назад

It varies, but, generally, sound travels at about 1127 ft. per second. So, it takes 1/1127 seconds to travel one foot. you are right

@wyshwood Год назад

@NondoPondo 3 года назад

@jaybyrddoggie 2 года назад

I usually time the reverb with the BPM of the song. Then experiment with the millisecond values of pre-delay (1/4 note 1/8 note 1/16 note 1/32 note ETC) for each instrument and vocal in the song. Yea, it's time-consuming but the reward is the "everything in one room" sound that is so cool. But sometimes you might not worry about timing the reverb, and just add a little mix of a bused reverb to each instrument or vocal. If it works in the mix then that's cool too.

@EISERMANN80 3 года назад

Great tip. I think what’s confusing some people is WHERE exactly the delays for each individual track are inserted. As far as I got my head around it (without trying in my DAW), you do it like that: 1. Create a parallel channel for each track (or group) you want the reverb on. 2. Insert the delay on those parallel channels at a 100% wet, no feedback. Set the (pre-)delay time. 3. Turn the parallel channel’s volume fader down. 4. Send the parallel channel’s delayed signal pre-fader(!) to your reverb buss like you would normally do. Correct me if I’m wrong!

This is fantastic. Definitely gives it an instant 60s vibe. In the past I've used an empty hollowed out bedroom for a reverb chamber, and I use to love to send tracks out to it. It was definitely a poor man's chamber reverb, but it was quirky and I loved it. I don't have that luxury anymore, no empty bedroom, but this plugin really gives me some of that back again, in a much better sounding room of course, but still with lots of personality.

@crunchyfrog555 3 года назад

This is a great cheat I've used on my thing of using electronic instruments (I predominantly fiddle around with synths and drum machines and so on). It's a great way of creating the illusion that these instruments were sat in a room physically and recorded thus. I've managed also to use it to split up things that very slightly clashed too by moving them a bit more away from each other. Though that's probably not something I'd recommend as that was more of a bodge on my part. I particularly love doing it by "building up". Start with the first track, add what you feel is right, then add another track, and so on. If you get it wrong or lose yourself, drop back. It's a great trcik and it absolutely WILL teach you to use reverb correctly and efficiently if you don't have it sussed.

@chuckschillingvideos 3 года назад

@ramspencer5492 Год назад

Awesome. There's a version of this where you create two identical reverbs.... Except one is set to only have early refections.... And it's counterpart is set to only use the tail. Then everything that you send to the reverbs can also have a different amount going to early reflections and the reverb tail... That in conjunction with pre-delays can make it sound even more real that everything is in different places in the same room.

Brilliant tips here Warren - thanks! I have often added too many reverbs and delays in the past and just ended up with a muddy mess. I'm a big believer in "less is more" in which case, and very often I've been doing much as you've done here, adding just one reverb, but love the extra delay tip on each instrument before it sends to the verb. Definitely something I'm going to be trying on my mixes.
