Reverb is by far my favorite effect. No matter how subtle it is it still makes a difference. You may not even be able to tell when it's on but you can always tell when it's off 😁
@@incognito4354 Not sure. I don't own nor have I ever played a Katana. from what I understand they're pretty awesome so I would assume it has a decent reverb. There's so many amazing reverb pedals out there now I'm sure you'll find something to suit your needs
I had to practically beg the guitarist in an old band to just use a little bit of reverb on his completely dry, cranked fender super reverb. The attack of the pick felt like an icepick directly in the eardrum.
My reverb taste is very polarized. Either I have just enough for a bit of texture (or non at all) or I have it outrageously present. I used to find it unnecessary (a lot of the time I still do), but now I see value in it. Nothing beats natural reverb of a venue, but some occasional layers to the guitar do add something.
I’ve heard so many guitar tones ruined with reverb. I love reverb. One trick I’ve learned is to bring it up till I can hear it then back it off a little
I barely used reverb for the first 15 years of my playing. I always knew something was missing but didn't want to admit it was reverb. Of course, it was reverb.
Finally someone who understands that to demo reverb, you need to use a lot of percussive tones and chords, and that the reverb level needs to be turned up a bit. I've seen so many reverb demos where you can barely hear the reverb, because of only playing sustained notes and/or using not enough reverb level. Great demo and descriptions!
I've been playing for 23 years and I never knew that putting the reverb anywhere but the effects loop was a thing that anybody ever did. I love the sound you got putting the reverb into overdrive/distortion. So I will experiment for sure now. Very cool. I had no idea that was even a thing. I've been missing out.
Every time I hear you do these incredible ethereal intros, I just think man you need to make a solo record like this! I know someone else also made that comment, but seriously I think you’d find massive success with it. Reverb is my favorite effect hands down. I stack reverbs on top each other, but like you said in an effective way. I love great guitar sounds soaked in Reverb when it’s done right, and isn’t too overwhelming.
I was one of those who avoided reverb because I didn’t understand the pre delay ... I got the concept but didn’t put the pieces together. Your vid was very helpful, thanks!
When I got my first solid state amp in the 90s I used to play at home with the reverb basically dimed. After I started playing with people I realized you don’t need as much. Usually keep it around 2 or 3 on my Princeton Reverb which some would say is a lot of reverb. But I always have a little bit on. Really dig the UA pedal and the Capital records preset.
Great to see you utilizing the new space. Seems like you feel real comfortable in it. Congrats. Nice video too. Good hear someone talk practically about verb usage.
Had it but sold it for oceans eleven because of its spring reverb. Though I lost the dry signal option. I guess it all comes down to what you want from your pedals..
Having been one of those guitar players that just turned on reverb and never gave any thought to the room space, where to place the reverb. This has been a very enlightening experience. Always learning something new, wish we had the Internet while I was growing up. If you wanted to learn new guitar tricks back in my day you had to steal them 😂
A sound engineer once told me that when playing guitar in a gymnasium, you can actually turn up your reverb and cancel out the reverb in the gym creating less mud and wash out. I don’t know how that works or if that’s even true, but I certainly would like to know more about that.
@@CerealDust-nStuff All I can think of is EQing your reverb to be kinda the inverse of the room’s natural reverb (like, super bright if the room sounds dark) so that the reverb at least sounds even.
@@OtherTheDave -I think you're on a something there and that's very helpful and a great idea! The person who told me this was one of the sound engineers at Colorado Sound when we were recording our first album. Colorado Sound is pretty legit establishment. I was in there after Eminem on our time recording slot. I didn't really think much of it at the time because I never played in any gymnasiums back then.
I absolutely love the Ambi-Verb on the Headrush Pedalboard. It really blew my mind. Capo on 5th fret and just doing arpeggios of chords. Very lush and ambient sounding. Love your vidoes by the way! Keep on rockin'!
Good stuff Rhett. For a long time, I ran a 100w Marshall dry with a boost and some delay. I graduated to plate and and never left. In the end, it depends on what you're trying to achieve. Always appreciated.
Good video, Rhett. These are my favorite videos of yours - quick, but educational. You are on of the few YT’ers that seems to understand that 99% of your subs are amateurs.
Thanks for all the sensible comparisons Rhett! You've done a fantastic job of comparing all the different ways of placing the Reverb in the right & wrong place in the chain, & what to expect from the Reverb when doing so. By the way. The sound quality you've achieved in this Video demonstration is excellent. You've surrounded yourself with first class gear & you have learned to use it extremely well. Considering this is being transmitted Via TH-cam, I find it very refreshing! Too-Shay Rhett!
First bid gig I played when I just bought my Strymon BigSky, years ago, I cranked the reverbs so high and in stereo, only to find out later in the recordings that I was completely lost and mud in the mix. We had a video crew shooting that show too and eventually couldn’t use most of that. Lesson learned.
Rhet, as you said it is everywhere in the natural world, I love the 63 tube reverb Fender stand alone unit , lost mine in the late 90's been chasing that sound soo long I am building one now. Great playing always.
I've noticed some nice differences in color between using reverb either before or after a drive pedal, pedal reverb on one side or amp reverb on the other. Brett's demonstration of pre and post reverb explains a lot about why those approaches sound so different.
Excellent video Rhett. Reverb is the one effect that I cannot live without. I bet it feels great to work in the new studio...you earned this man. Congrats!
Thanks for the information, Rhett. After nearly 50 years of playing, I am just now learning to use reverbs as a soundscaping tool. Previously, I barely used any 'verb at all (just a touch to give the tone some air) and so I've been struggling not to go too far the other way with the ambient stuff I'm doing. Appreciate the lesson!
Thanks, Rhett! Superb video. My experience with reverb is what I have in my Fender Studio 85. I'm fond of it cranked up when playing old school surf music (Dick Dale, Astronauts, Trashmen, Jesters, etc.). You have given me SO much more to chew on with this video! I also loved your beauttiful intro!
Your hearing & musicality amaze me, the only other person I can immediately think 🤔 of with such an ear for music is your old friend Rick B always just enough & not to much I’ve just began to realise some time’s less is more, thanks to listening to you guys. Thanks 🙏 so much
Reverb changes with the times! Years ago most of my mixes had ample amounts of verb. Then it became very dry for a good while. Now I’m back to healthy dollops of reverb on all sorts of instruments!
Additionally on your last point, I was watching another recovering reverb addict, Tim Pierce, he rewards himself for hard work by adding a little extra reverb.
Great video man! I've been playing guitar for 16 years or so and your video still has great advice and real time examples that I needed I hear. Been thinking of adding a reverb pedal to my pedalboard and this is gonna be a huge factor for how I choose it
I'm a guitar player and I've been a professional audio engineer for nearly 40 years and I worked for 3 years at Lexicon. You could say I'm a wash in reverb ;-D Everything Rhett is saying here about reverb on guitar is spot on. One caution I would add in recording situations... It can be difficult to know exactly what reverb and how much of it is needed before you have the entire mix in place. It can be virtually impossible to change the reverb once it's recorded on the same track as the guitar. If the artist and I decided on a reverb sound that I can create with plug-ins we record with no reverb in the guitar signal path. If the reverb is coming from plugins or studio equipment like a 224 or a BriCasti it's always available during the mix. If we're recording in a studio or in a location that has a cool sounding chamber or unique reverb unit I will dedicate track(s) to recording the reverb so we can take that sound with us. Getting the best mix is a delicate and sometimes complicated process of balancing all the various sounds in a given song. The more flexibility you give yourself in tracking session by not combining sounds together (something us old farts called bouncing) the more options you'll have during your mix. I've had a number of sessions where what the guitar play put on sounded great at the amp and in the room and even in the headphone mix but when we sat down to do the final mix it was just a little too much... there's no way to adjust that pre-delay after it's recorded that way.
love being able to stack reverb plugins and seeing what combos with hammer ons and palm muting etc can add rhythmically...can give new ideas/perspectives on how things can be played or improved...
Great video once again! Reverb's one of the tough effects to implement elegantly for sure. I've got the Black Country Customs Secret Path Verb and run it (spring mode mostly) into the front of my amps as last pedal on the board. Recently put the trem after it for the first time which made me love the verb all the more (for surf stuff especially). Now the trem comes after the delay as well though because delay needs to be before verb, which means can't really use delay and trem together any more except for maybe a slap back....aaaargh it never ends!
Really useful video Rhett, love that intro. I run a Crazy Tube Circuit Splash reverb through effects loop, wouldn't be without it, it's like having a whole new sound. Also can add dB to lift a solo out of the pack.
That mini solo (just some phrases together but really well used) remind me of Pink Floyd's time, and since you've said that solo was once of the most important for your musical development, I have no doubt you've been unconciously inspired by it in this intro
Liked! Nice explanation and examples. One humble tought about "predelay" - your example with the "big room": If the "player" and the "listener" are ... let's say "in the middle of the big room" - then you get a big pre delay. Both are "close" to each other. If you put the "player" in one corner and the listener in the opposite corner - the listener will have nearly _no predelay_ since sound source is far away and the reverb will be there close to the original signal. So in the mix as sound engineer you can control the "depth" ... esp. on the drums --> small predelay = far away and vice versa. So thanks very much and this is no "correction" or "complaining" - I love your videos. Just wanted to add, that you also control the "distance" between listener and soundsource with predelay... but there are so many factory ... so really love your examples! Thanks and cheers, Stefan
Great video, very informative. I avoided using reverb for many years because I thought it was unnecessary. But just recently I started using a mild reverb always on at the end of my signal chain. Not enough to be totally noticeable, but just enough to feel like it's making my sound a little fuller. And now I don't think I'll ever go back to no reverb.
I have a cathedral reverb and recently got an amp with no effects loop (Orange AD30TCH). Usually I run my reverb in the effects loop but not having that option really opened my eyes to using reverb as a “tone shaper” instead of as an ambient effect. My favorites so far are running the grail spring into the edge of breakup on the “cleaner” channel and running the echo setting with the decay at 9 o’clock and pre-delay just shy of 12 o’clock into either channel for a cool slap-back sound with room reverb underneath it. Sometimes there are some dirty artifacts left over, but when dialed in correctly they actually add something magical to the tone.
Rhett not sure if you will read this but the intro to this video was outstanding . Fantastic tone , inspired , and just a killer track . If you ever make it to Scotland I would happily buy you a beer !!!!
Reverb is by far my favorite effect. No matter how subtle it is it still makes a difference. You may not even be able to tell when it's on but you can always tell when it's off 😁

I don't trust anyone who doesn't like reverb.
OR WHO HAS THE LAST NAME OF A CITY

I had to practically beg the guitarist in an old band to just use a little bit of reverb on his completely dry, cranked fender super reverb. The attack of the pick felt like an icepick directly in the eardrum.

Nor should you
Rhet should do a solo album with these intros omg
Right?!
Seriously, that was a sick intro
I'll 4th that one!!! Best idea for videos. It hooks you right away.
Give him time he's got a plateful...
@@jeffmarchant4312 I see what you did there...

Same goes for setting a chorus or flanger imo
Also Saxophone players.

I hadn’t thought about using a higher pre-delay to make a smaller room type reverb sound bigger (like a larger room than it is). Cool idea 💡
Dude that opening track sounds MASSIVE!!!
These Intros dude, so haunting !! 👌🏼
Between Rhett and Benn Jordan, Atlanta guys just seem to be the best at making great nature B-roll with dope music.
Practice Slowing down more and stop doing the continuous runs,...
that fucking intro dude, its insane
As I like to say about reveb in production and mixing- "It's the rug of effects; it really ties the room together, man."
And they peed on it
Dude, love the new studio, and digs!
I've been playing for 23 years and I never knew that putting the reverb anywhere but the effects loop was a thing that anybody ever did. I love the sound you got putting the reverb into overdrive/distortion. So I will experiment for sure now. Very cool. I had no idea that was even a thing. I've been missing out.
You should really make a video on your recording process (gear, plugins, track order...). Especially on these great intro tracks.

These shots look amazing in the new studio!!! Amazing vid.
Great to see you utilizing the new space. Seems like you feel real comfortable in it. Congrats. Nice video too. Good hear someone talk practically about verb usage.
Man that tone at 1:37 just incredible!! Also love that your using a jazzmaster now !
The example no. 2 that begins at 18:38, is not only the best tone of those two, but one of the best guitar tones I’ve ever heard.
Hall of fame reverb is a great pedal with many reverb options, super modular. Great video!
I have it and love it- so many great options on it
Had it but sold it for oceans eleven because of its spring reverb. Though I lost the dry signal option.
I guess it all comes down to what you want from your pedals..
Holy shit, Rhett. Amazing intro jam (and video).
Hall of Fame 2 at end of my signal chain into amp works great for me.
Wow, Rhett, that intro is beautiful. :-O
I can't tell you how much I love your videos and how inspiring they are to me.

Worship guitarist: no.
They do that a lot don't they???

WHAT do 'worship' guitarists know? Hail Mary!
And they'll use reverb effects in addition to playing a very echoy sanctuary 🤣

Love my T.C. Helicon Hall of Fame Reverb pedal. Live and recording. I like your take on reverb in general. Great site!
I may add advice to use a lo-cut (hi-pass) on a reverb when using plugins - further helps to keep notes clearer and avoid muddiness on low freqencies.
Great intro track. Best one in a while! And the new space is looking nice as well, I’m jelly
Very educational video for me. Always just used reverb for light ambience.
Thank you for a very nice explanation. I finally understood what is pre delay. I overlooked that knob for a long time.
