See a practical demonstration of using different types of reverbs on vocals. Focus on blending them to achieve a rich and spacious sound. Each type of reverb contributes to the overall vocal texture. Gain insights into setting up reverbs and adjusting pre-delay.

Key Points:
  • Early Reflections (ER) reverb simulates the initial sound reflections. These can be blended with other reverbs for a more complex effect.
  • Plate reverb has a unique sound. It's produced by a vibrating metal plate, offering distinctive reverb quality.
  • Hall reverb creates the impression of a large, expansive space, such as a cathedral or auditorium.
  • The use of pre-delay with plate reverb allows for a gap between the initial vocal sound and the onset of reverb, enhancing clarity.
  • Setting the reverb time (e.g., 130 milliseconds) can give a sense of delay, adding depth to the vocal.
  • Blending different reverbs can achieve a variety of textures and ambiances. For example, you can mix early reflections with hall or plate reverb.
  • Adjusting the balance of each reverb type depending on the song's style and the vocalist’s tone is crucial for optimal results.
  • Using combinations of reverb types can enhance the vocal's presence and add richness to the live mix.
