In Classical style projects, it is normal to use far more reverb than delay. The real answer is: delay IS reverb, meaning both are linear, time-invariant filters that both do echoes (i.e. reflections in reverb terms). However, the way they are implemented is completely different from each other. Delay basically is the process of repeating the original ...

That effect is called Backwards Reverb - the simplest way to do it is to reverse the waveform, then add a normal reverb, then reverse it again. Many DAW's have a backwards reverb plugin which effectively does exactly this, but without you having to do the reversing manually, but I don't think Fruity Loops has this. I did find this tutorial specific to ...

There are a few pretty simple LADSPA reverb plugins that will work with Audacity. Start looking at Steve Harris' docs page. I like the Plate Reverb he lists for vocals and general reverbiness, but if you are interested in a guitar reverb you want a "spring reverb" sound. The LADSPA Impulse Convolver has what appear to be compiled-in presets for about 20 ...

I think the answer depends heavily on the type of sound source , the style of music and your personal preferences as recording engineer/mixer/producer. For modern rhythmic music, I see two opposing forces: as the recording engineer and mixer, I prefer the source be completely free of any reverb or other coloration. That gives me complete freedom to shape ...

Yes, the reverb can be added back in, after the fact. This technique works very well, and is used in recording studios all the time; it gives you the flexibility of choosing what kind of reverb you want, and how much reverb effect you wish to apply to the sound. Modern convolution reverbs simulate the sound of an actual room, and provide a very high ...

Though I've never heard anyone refer to as "software reverb" before, I'm fairly certain you were being told to record the dry guitar and then add in reverb and ambience using a plugin effect in your computer software you used to record the sound. Reverb plugins for software recording solutions come in all shapes and sizes and can use a few different ...

I think there are a few reasons why the NI demo material sounds so good, and it's not just because of the reverb. Let me explain: First, the demos on the NI site are very, very well produced, in every way. What you're hearing is not any one particular effect that "makes it". We're talking world-class engineers carefully producing a world-class demo for a ...

There are several solutions for your problem, and they have huge price range and complexity differences. I'll cover the conceptual basics here and the issues you may come across. I am assuming that your question was literal; you are attempting to that a mic signal from a singer and send it back to her with some effects on her voice without recording her ...

Put in other words, "record the guitar uisng a mic, and then put a reverb effect on the recording using software." As opposed to, say, putting a reverb effect on the recording using a hardware effect unit, or using a recording room with a reverb sound that you like. I'm assuming you're already pretty familiar with reverb. If not, Wikipedia's Reverb page ...

I'm not sure if you already knew this, but the best way to use GVerb is to duplicate the track you want reverb on and then apply GVerb to one of them. Then you can adjust the level of reverb in the mix. See: Audacity Wiki

A delay, when used subtly, can give a sound/effect very much like reverb (reverbs are generally made with delays) without taking up as much space in the mix as delay effects tend to have much less reflections and not to introduce things like diffusion to the sound. This obviously depends on the specifics of the effects being used some multi-tap delay effects ...

You can create 2 layers of the same PAD. PAD #1 leave as it, but route PAD #1 to a new audio track/insert which we'll call PAD #2. With PAD #2, you can use a stereo widening + reverb, while keeping PAD #1 untouched. You can then blend PAD #2 with the stereo and reverb into PAD #1 to get that extra wideness. Note, you can also change the EQ on PAD #2 and ...
