I love the Valhalla reverb plugins, especially the Room and VintageVerb. My all-time favourite room reverb is still the Tegeler Audio Manufaktur Raumzeitmaschine. It's a stellar outboard unit.
Very nice explenation.But i would like to know how much reverb so whole truck would sound like in the same space.This was vocal alone.And tutarial was good.I do heavy music.How about reverb in heavy music.If on vocal than how much.What if song is fast?Thanks.
Great intro to reverb, appreciate how orderly the steps in the signal processing where shown. Have started to tinker more with verb in restoring old dj mixtapes, combing verb with stereo widening has nice expansion possibilities on a master of nothing but dry audio, oh the days when djs only had mixers and maybe a compressor 😀
Thank you for this video Sara… I just came across you and this channel after your conversation with Robert at Home Studio Simplified a few days ago…. So glad to have caught that! WRT reverb I seem to have issue with getting the decay (maybe) correct on vocals. On vocals done professionally the reverbs to me have such a sweetness that sonically fits whereas when I try this it seems slightly dissonant and dark.
Great video - wish this existed about 6 months ago when I was doing a deep dive on reverbs and auditioning a lot of different plugins. I know you don't want to overcomplicate things but the only other aspect which I think is really important when dialling in reverb is the mix between early/late reflections. Sometimes I actually have two different reverb settings (one for early reflections and one for the reverb tail) and dial them in separately. At the very least, the balance between early and late reflections is key to how the reverb will sound. I know this may sound too advanced for a beginners guide but imho it is as fundamental to how the reverb sounds as the other things covered in the video.
Hi Sara, Fantastic! I discovered your channel after I heard you on the Recording Rockstars Podcast. And I'm So Happy I did! You are such a knowledgable engineer and have such a gift for communicating that knowledge! I would love a video about the different types and flavours of reverb and if possible what types are most commonly used in the most common genres.
I've really been loving your videos! So much great info. Quick question--the dry vocal at 6:54 sounds to me like there's something else going on. I put my computer in mono for that part because I thought the raw vocal sounded a bit "3D" and wide. Sure enough, the sound changed when in mono. Was there already a really short reverb or delay on that "dry" signal before you applied the super wet delay? Thank you so much! Looking forward to watching every video on your channel :)
Hi! Is that Oxford English, very British, I like that: D I like to watch your videos, even if I count myself among the advanced, I sign up for one or the other to see how people do it. If I were a beginner I would register for your courses, you explain that really well. What I also think is great that you use a German subtitle, that makes it even more likeable. How many Germans make a video in English and it sounds creepy, there can still be so much good information in it, I switch off. Stay the way you are, you do it really well. LG.
Thank you for the video's. I often see producers who have maybe two or three reverb buses and delays that they send varying amounts of lots of different instruments tracks to them. What are the best settings to use in these cases as the only setting that would change is the send amount. Could you recommend a ball park preset to use? Thanks again.
Think in terms of size or length. Small, medium and large reverb, short. med and long delay. Good effects starting points can often be found in presets.
Very informative video. I use cubase standard plugin Room Works. For distorted Guitars very small room sound. For clean Guitars a vintage spring sound and for Bass guitar no reverb at all. I'm mixing only for my own band, it's just a hobby, so I didn't dig very deep in this topic. Not yet. Thanx for the good work.
@@SaraCarterSimplyMixing thank you for responding. No, I need reverb plugins (Plate, Spring) only for Guitar, because I record it directly and dry into the DAW. Vocals i record with natural ambience/reverb of the room. there are about 5 meters space behind me, when I'm singing. so, there are no hard reflections. It's just indie-punk-whatever :) and not professional work. Only for Demo-"Tapes" and to check, if arrangements are good working. But my interest in this work awaked already. If i was younger, this would be my choice of vocational training. keep on the good work!
By using the volume control, I'm just increasing the volume of the reverb whist maintaining the decay time. I want it louder, not longer, otherwise the reverb tails start to overlap into the next vocal line and will build up to sound too mushy. Hope that helps.
The number 1 problem is that you kill so much creativity by saying " I barely use much reverb" or " the number 1 mistake is to put reverb on everything" I don't care I don't chase a sound I chase a feel
Do you use different reverb types for different instrument groups? What’s your fav reverb plugin?
Great topic! This helps people like me who are trying to learn Reverb! My fav reverb plugin is Valhalla Vintage Verb Thank you.

@@soulbeats5922 you're very welcome!
@@MarcBecker_Music Nice
Your one of my favourite mixing teachers! Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Wow, thanks!
You have an excellent teaching style, Sara!! Yes would love a video on the different sounds different reverbs make. 💥👌🏽
Thanks Bigga Bigga P that means a lot 😊

This was EXTREMELY helpful. Thank you, Sara!! 💯🙏🏿
Glad it was helpful!
Great Video Miss Sarah, the how to's and the why's. Very Helpful.
Waiting on Your Courses.
Thanks
Thank you! Hopefully, the courses will be coming very soon

Thanks Sara, yes to making a video on various types of verb and genre
Great! Yes, I'll get that scheduled 😀
@@SaraCarterSimplyMixing please include examples of reverbs that have tempo Sync feature.

Hi Darren, thanks that's a really good point and I agree that it would be more appropriate for a more advanced reverb video 👌
Reverb is definitively hard to master this video help a tons
I can't wait for advanced reverb videos! thank you so much!
Glad it's helped! thanks for watching
What would you like to see covered?
Well done Sara. That's the best explanation I've heard regarding reverb
Martin Francis, thank you so much :)
Giving thanks for the knowledge your a good teacher
I appreciate that, thank you. Thanks for watching!
Thanks Sara! Another brilliant video. Appreciate it!
You're so welcome!
An absolutely excellent video! Superb
Thank you!
Great video. Thank you, Sara
Thanks Marc!

Your content is simpy amazing. You can really explain the subject and thats seldom here on TH-cam. Thanks

Wow! Thank you so much for your amazing feedback, I'm glad to have helped
GREATES REVERB VIDEO I HAVE EVER SEEN
Thanks Justin!
Great explanation! 😎👍
Glad you liked it!
Thanks 😀
You're welcome 😊
For Reverb, best to send to the Drum aux, or just the same to send, say to the main Sub Mix or Mix Buss? Thanking you in advance.

it's a rabbit hole^^ keep it simple, focus on the music, have fun. never mix for hours. but I assume you knew all that already :-)
@@couchcamperTM Great advice!
Those reverbs sounds perfect to me. Plate for vocals?

Yepp!
I've made already the experience of mixing the whole night and next day deleted all I've done :)))
Thank you for advice though!
You got a nice Victoria Wood type voice.
Thank you! 😊I'm a big VW fan actually!
@@SaraCarterSimplyMixing I was in two minds whether to say as it looked a bit creepy written down ! Thanks
I think I’ll subscribe 😉
Thank you!
I am a little confused as in 8:00 your using the volume control and not the reverb controls.
By using the volume control, I'm just increasing the volume of the reverb whist maintaining the decay time. I want it louder, not longer, otherwise the reverb tails start to overlap into the next vocal line and will build up to sound too mushy. Hope that helps.

Is somebody cutting the grass around
the 12 minute mark?
Haha! Yes, probably. I had to stop recording and pick up later 😂
