    More Will Yip demos! Dude is a legend.

    I do this: use one for early reflections & the other for late reflections...the end result is more lush & realistic sounding reverb especially if you keep the early verb super short & the late short enough to not muddy up the mix but long enough to be felt more so than heard.
    When you just go to a real room w/ alot of ambiance & listen to how everything sounds, you get an even better imagination of what can be done to replicate that. Things like LP filtering the signal before it hits the verb end up helping it sound more real. Making sure you hear no siblance in the verb also helps because IRL you never hear reverb bounce off a wall & sound so crisp & audible it needs a de-esser lol.
    Reverb lives in the lower mids & the proximity effect of sounds being warmer & having less information in the highs & high mids when further is very much a part of reverb. When you do hear bright frequencies in real ambiance, its odd metallic noises from the amount of reflections bouncing & what theyre bouncing off.
    To add some of that, you can just multiband saturate certain frequencies in the high mids that you already cut out. Keep in mind you can get different effects from doing A to the early verb & B to the late...maybe making one brighter than the other via added saturation & you can always add that saturation to the signal BEFORE it hits the verb if adding it after compresses the verb too much. Have fun...I love reverb.

    A few years back, I learned this technique from Jon Allen (the engineer who mixed for Rod Stewart, Steve Tyrell, Kristin Chenoweth & Neal McCoy) Now I look forward to blending plate, hall and room verbs on vocals when opportunity presents itself.

  • @JonManness
    @JonManness Před rokem +1

    The quick plate verb almost acts like a delay, which then goes into the big verb. Cool concept!

  • @dpinskey
    @dpinskey Před rokem

    So funny to see this in my feed. I’ve just recently acquired a TK Audio Mini Blender for my USB rack and started playing around with combining various effect units together to apply to my vocal chain. I’m getting really cool combinations of delays feeding into short verbs followed by long verbs and really all kind of just weird whatever kind of funky phazer, or micro pitch effects. Really cool stuff. And what rules? Breaking rules has been the basis of Rock n Roll since it’s inception! Rock on!

    @christiannilsen2835 Před 3 měsíci

    You can also use some EQ before the same 1176 or sidechain it then don’t forget that Reverbs can be pricessef with EQ and some light compression as well (say, some LA2A/LA3A) for a tiny more sustqin and control, if needed

  • @greggiacona238
    @greggiacona238 Před rokem +2

    I may have missed this, but are you simply running the 2 reverbs side by side, concurrently, each on their own send (from the vocal track), feeding the mix bus? Or is one reverb feeding into the other (one AUX feeds the next AUX)? Both would yield very contrasting results!

  • @TimMilliken
    @TimMilliken Před rokem +13

    Not sure why you used a vocal demo recorded in a garage. A dryer vocal would probably have given us a better demo. BTW I do use Ocean Way and Capital Chambers on every dry vocal first for a room ambiance. They’re game changing. Thanks UA. Love your gear.

    • @TheDazlermac
      @TheDazlermac Před rokem +4

      I hate agree with you. The baseline example was recorded in an ambient space. A dryer vocal would have been a better choice.

    brainstorming on a certain guitar track reverb, and stumbled on this.
    it's sounds good, and i get your point, they are working different zones differently .... i think i am going to do the poor man's version, UAD Pure Plate + DreamVerb

    I'm confused, the "dry vocal" you first brought up had a ton of ambiance on it? Like the singer was in the middle of a very large, ambient room 0_o

  • @NullStaticVoid
    @NullStaticVoid Před rokem

    Capitol Chambers is really great.
    If I would fault it for anything, it's that it has too many options that create subtle differences. So you can spend way too much time tweaking tiny things that don't really matter.
    But it sounds great on all kinds of sources. I like putting a bit on synths and other direct sources to make them less dry. Sometimes with a little of the brigade chorus to give it that swirl.
    Lately I'm doing a 90's thing and using a beat matched delay or tape echo in parallel to the reverb, but also feeding the reverb a little bit.
    I gate it so it only jumps in on loud passages and gets out of the way for the quiet.
    Gating is tricky, sometimes it works perfectly. Sometimes you spend hours and can't get it it to open/close right even with keying.
    The SSL Drumstrip has a better gate than the stock Logic one, so I often go for that.
    (does UAD make one that isn't part of a DSP guzzling Unison strip?)
    And I fade it down low so it's not very obvious.
    Esp with (virtual) tape delays that you can modulate the wow and flutter this sounds amazing.
    Giving it a bit of a chorusy sound on sustained notes, but in a very non obvious, smooth way.

  • @viniciusfaina2732
    @viniciusfaina2732 Před 4 měsíci

    The original voice has no processing? How was it recorded? Can anyone say? It sounds like there was a lot of saturation and some use of reverb in the recording. Was this in the recording directly or was there in-box processing?

  • @allenalesna
    @allenalesna Před rokem

    I think those 'rules' back in the day was due to the limitations of the technology. It would seem a 'waste' of track to have two reverbs, sort of doing something similar. Meanwhile, you'd always be thinking about being effecient and making sure you're using the tracks judiciously. Not to mention, there was not much recalls then. You'd have to log everything on a session sheet. And I guess it just became an unwritten 'rule' of sort. DAWs, and the modern way of recording digitally, can break every 'rule in the book' in a sense.

  • @guitaristfirst9697
    @guitaristfirst9697 Před rokem +1

    On your vocals is already some kind of slap delay or spring reverb. So it's not very good example to show the reverb properly. Vocals should be dry or at least not so muddy. It sounded like a doubled vocals with a lot of effects.

    • @MelodicDreamers
      @MelodicDreamers Před rokem +2
