Drum Reverb with Jeff Sandstrom
Jeff Sandstrom explores the art and science of crafting the perfect reverb for drums. Focus on blending different reverb types to enhance your drum mix, in a creative process. Experiment with various settings to achieve the ideal balance and texture you desire.
Key Points:
- Jeff experimented with two distinct types of reverb. The first, a longer plate reverb, creates a more expansive sound. The second, shorter room has bright tiles. It reverberates and produces an immediate, reflective quality.
- Adjusting reverb characteristics include adjusting length (via damper control) and brightness (via treble control). This tailors the reverb’s tail and overall sound.
- The process isn’t just about selecting presets. It’s about deeply understanding their impact on sound. This includes the differences between a warm plate, a bright plate, and a long plate. These settings alter the sonic character.
- It’s important to combine different reverb types and settings. This should be based on the song’s tempo, style, and the playing intensity of your drummer. This creates a cohesive and dynamic drum sound.
