Today, we are going to be taking one stereo reverb and using it across every instrument in our track! We are going to be using a track that was recorded at Sunset Sound, and is completely live. Everything on this track was done in one take!
The reverb technique we are using today is one that was used quite a lot back in the days before all the plugins and digital tricks we have now. Back in the day, you would only have 2 or 3 reverbs on your console, and maybe 1 or 2 delays, and then you would mix a record with just that.
Today we are going to be recreating that reverb technique!
We are so used to have 20 instances of reverbs, or more, and all kinds of different delays and things going on. Sometimes it is nice to just find something you like the sound of, and restrict yourself, and then experiment a little bit.
On this track, we are only going to be using the Sunset Sound Studio Reverb plugin, and will be using that on all the instruments on this song. We will take this reverb, remove the pre-delay, so it is down to nothing, and then we are going to send from different instruments, and use different amounts of pre-delay each time. This will make feel like they are in the same room, but all in different positions in the room, giving them a bit of space, without making it feel like there is just a wall of reverb coming towards you.
This is going to be a lot of fun! Don’t forget to download the multitracks so you can try this technique too!

What are your favorite reverb tricks?
I create a gated snare plate without using a gate: I take a plate, make it short and timed to the tempo and compress the devil out of it. :D
The Abbey Rd trick is always a good one to allow you to use more reverb and not let it get in the way. Also, occasionally I like to time the pre-delay on things like the snare to create a rhythmic effect. Sometimes I like to have a completely dry vocal and the reverb in parallel too. Mostly, I just don't know what I'm doing and hope for the best.
Great stuff,makes me miss using a couple of 2 track Studers with vari speed from 15 to 30 ips as pre-delay,usually some AMS delays,always needed another channel,into a colossal EMT plate,miss that motor creaking away like a tardis,...man I loved that sound,the pre delay was always the key for multi channel use,
as much as authentic that colossal arrangement was,plug ins aint half nailing it.
I like putting DearVR inserts on my mono tracks to put them in a 'real space' before I send them to reverb (lately it's usually R4 or iRCam). Might be interesting to try this trick on my stereo tracks though..?
@Kevin i read CLA never Puts reverb on direct mics in Drums, only on the room and maybe overheads. I think this along those lines.
You can also low pass the predelays with different amounts, so that the instruments that are further away, sound further away in the reverb :)
✨✨✨
Just for the record, I've clearly watched too many PLAP videos as I've found myself saying "I hope you're doing marvellously well" to people entirely unintentionally.
whoa
Ha! Me too!
Yep, me too...
You're not alone. Just say'n.
Except on fridays when I say "Do you know where your bass player is?"
That "all in the same room" sound really completes the live recording and demonstrates that simplicity is sometimes the best creative choice.
Thanks ever so much! Yes, amazing players does really help!
I love this - my reverb was either too complicated and confused or it didn't add any depth. Now my singer sits at the front with the instruments behind them. To make my life easier, I create 3 bus "layers": front, middle and back, and route all the instruments into the them parallel wherever I want to put them on the "stage". Each of these buses goes into my reverb channel.
I see. So instead of creating one delay channel strip for every instrument like Warren does (where you determine how delayed you want that instrument to feed into the reverb bus), you create three busses with a different amount of delay each and send every instrument to those depending on where you want them to sit on the stage. And those three busses will turn feed into the reverb bus. Sounds good!
This is one of those things I will look back on as a real landmark for my mixing skills. I can see that often I end up indiscriminately painting a mess with reverb.
What a great lesson to illustrate many things.
Thanks ever so much!!
I used to just put one mild reverb on the master bus to glue it together, but this will give me so much more control. Your videos are proof that you don't need a bunch of special gear, hour long tricks, etc. There are simple, beautiful sounding techniques you can use. So thank you. Please do more of these digitized versions of simple classic tricks. Please please please.
Thanks ever so much Chris! Yes, far more control this
You put the Sunset plugin on a track recorded at Sunset, the glorious meta!!!
alpha
Haha Exactly! Thanks ever so much
@@lishonlouw1332 Thanks ever so much
It's Sunset inception...
I have never heard what that reverb plugin actually sounds like until now, and boy is it gorgeous!
Yes it certainly is!!
@Gerhard Schöner haha thanks ever so much!
@Gerhard Schöner I felt the same way about the spring setting. I actively thought, "that's the best-sounding spring reverb I've ever heard." Couldn't believe it.
I am totally impressed! This is exactly what this song needed. This is one of the best reverb lesson I have yet seen on TH-cam. Going from reverb bypass to on is such an eye opener (... or ear opener), it glues the mix so well and makes it cohesive. Really well done Warren!
Thanks ever so much Jacques! You Rock!!
@@Producelikeapro hello Warren I want to understand the pre delay better. In Logic I would place the delay on the track as an insert or send? And using the reverb as a send or busing that track to the verb?
@@ST-fl5fy place it on the duplicated track and send that to the reverb is what i got from it.
I really love how this video creates space out of "nothing" in the sense that the tracks are dry, and end up with life in them. Thank you!
I love this trick. It works so well to put closed miked sources and dry virtual instruments in a virtual room and make them sound cohesive. Thank you for sharing, Warren.
You never fail to make my day (and hopefully production life easier) with these pearls of wisdom. Thanks for your generosity Warren
Thanks ever so much
You know it's the best when it's still great despite being old school! Cheers for the work!
Extraordinary. Fascinating how good this sounds without all the usual fannying about.
I love this sound of the reverb you create, you really did a good job!
Thanks ever so much!!
Warren uses reverb marvelously well :)
I love tips like this because it's so practical and I get caught up in having too many reverb options that can make mixing a song so much harder. Thanks Warren.
Thanks ever so much Mark!!
beautiful drum sound and playing. sounds great!
What a cool technique for utilizing a shared reverb - sending different groups or instruments with different amounts of predelay! absolutely amazing thank you Warren!
I really love learning new techniques from you Warren they all are super great and help my mixes sound much better! Thank you so much for all of your wonderful tricks and tips you share with us!
Wow, I just started doing this last year, figured it out myself... To hear from a pro like you that it's "how it's done" is a great feeling! Love your videos!
I love this trick. To my ears, it sounds a lot more natural too, which I think is something that is often taken for granted. Great presentation as always, Warren. Thanks brother.
Can't thank u enough sir for all the help you r providing to all the budding producers. It feels more like interning at a studio rather than watching TH-cam vids. U and Michael from "in the mix" r one of the finest in the game.
Much love n respect ✊
Couldn't agree more @Farhan Khan! Warren always makes me feel like I'm in the studio with him (only I can rewind him at will!) Great "tone" to his vids. 😁
Such a simple but powerful trick. Thank you, Warren!
This was an ideal track for this technique, I think, being so open and not filled with harmonic content. And brilliantly recorded, I must say. Thanks!
absolutely the best 18 minutes on recording/mixing techniques on youtube!! thanks a ton for sharing this ..it actually answered some question for me! thx again and cheers!!!
Wonderfully simple trick and I love how lush that particular verb sounds
I've learned so many cool tricks by watching your channel. It's been an invaluable resource to me. Thank you!
Thanks, Warren; a brilliant, simple technique that really suits this lovely track.
So great and quite simple. Got a mix i’ll dig into tommorrow 🥰
This is exactly how I like to apply Reverb to a track and I love that you said it's an old school way coz I love the old school. Great video thank you very much for 👍🏼
So helpful for someone like me who can only do overdubs! Helps me get one step closer to a live sound
This is absolutely magical. Exactly the sort of technique I love. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks ever so much
Great technique. It gives it so much ambience.
I love this. I like to limit myself to a few effects, partly because I'm learning, but also because I've been working remotely with my band over lockdown, so I want to make us sound more like we're all in the same room. This is gold! Thank you so much
I love this vocal performance!
Another amazing and usefull tutorial. Thanks Warren! Great stuff. It shall be used to great extent 🤘
Such a simple concept with incredible results. Thanks!
Thanks ever so much!
I really LOVE this Technique.....Many THANKS!!!!!!!
LOVE this tip, thanks loads! Eye-opening.
This was really helpful and excellent Warren. Still go back to it and am always satisfied with the results. Thank you.
That sounds freaking amazing!
Thanks for that!
Thanks ever so much
That reverb plugin is stunning!
Wow never even crossed my mind using pre delay to send the track to the back of the reverb mix! Genius!! Thanks Warren 🔥😛
Amazing ! Thnx for the trick and congrats for the band and the rec !!! 👏👏👏
Thanks ever so much
Amazing! There's beauty in simplicity!
Something so simple yet sounds great .
ow totally cool ! professional, clear, concrete explanation, and sympathetic as ever.
Hi Warren, Thank you, you really are awesome for showing us these fantastic tricks, i learn so much from you, have a great day, all the best.
Wow...this sounds amazing!
Splendid demonstration of "less is more" approach. Very, very interesting... Thank you so much Warren.
You’re very welcome!
This is fantastic. Definitely gives it an instant 60s vibe. In the past I've used an empty hollowed out bedroom for a reverb chamber, and I use to love to send tracks out to it. It was definitely a poor man's chamber reverb, but it was quirky and I loved it. I don't have that luxury anymore, no empty bedroom, but this plugin really gives me some of that back again, in a much better sounding room of course, but still with lots of personality.
i had done this many times only not with the predelay....just love this cant wait to try it
I love it Shows how easily you can use something so simple to provide cohesion and adding depth. A perfect demonstration the K.I.S.S. Method.
Love it and how timely as I have 3 new reverbs to use. I will definitely use this technique and quite likely on many mixes. It may seem simple but for me it is ground breaking. It adds so much coherence. Insane to receive this level of knowledge for free. Thanks a million Warren!
Just as I was searching TH-cam for tips about creating a depth in my mix this video was uploaded. Brilliant video, very helpful thank you!
Makes total sense and I never even thought about this... I really like this approach! Thank you, Warren!
Thanks ever so much!
Reverb is by far one of my favourite effects. Marvellous done Warren! Sounded amazing!
Thanks ever so much! Glad to be able to help!
Wonderful and incredibly practical tip!
This was so incredibly informative... wow just wow!!! 💜🎶🔥
This reverb setup suited the song marvelously well
Thank you for this lesson, I geeked throughout the entire pre-delay process! 70's magic in its intuitive simplicity✨🙏🏽
Thanks ever so much
Rock on Nathan, and thanks for the welcome 32c Channel Strip tips!
This was very helpful. Thank you for this.
Great mix.
Reminds me of a very well mixed live performance in a venue with awesome natural reverb.
Thanks ever so much
Thank you Warren this simple trick has completely opened out my mixes and given them breadth and depth
.
You’re very welcome
Thank you so much Warren! Fantastic!
It's soooo good. Thing that I loved from this channel is it always keep everything simple and practical. Thank you.
Thanks ever so much my friend
This is a possible solution for all that reverb-horror, many of us use to get in. GREAT!
Yes! Exactly Peter! Thanks for your great comment!
Yeah death by a choices.
Your videos are pure gold. As a DAW beginner I've been acquiring plug ins like crazy. No more! Thanks Warren!
Gotta stop the plugin buying addiction! :) You can join PBA (Plugin Buyers Anonymous)
This is my favorite video of yours! Love this method. TY!
Thanks ever so much! I really appreciate it
I've never seen this trick before Warren. The results were amazing.
Ah this is one of the best PLAP videos yet, so informative on a fundamental level, top banana!
Thats a rad technique! Thanks man! 👍
Aaaaaand added to my reverb trick box haha thank you for sharing !
Warren, absolutely brilliant! Thank you sir.
What a beautiful track ❤️
Live recordings are the best, period! Great stuff Warren.
I absolutely love these videos. As just a kid going to Full Sail for Recording Arts, these are my favorite. I learn so much from these! Thank you!
Thanks ever so much Max!!
Again with some great information, thank you Warren I will put this in my toolbox. Also what a cool song? I love it
Great song and the reverb add so much mojo.
Thanks, Warren, I really apreciate this. I was looking that exactly effect on one song I'm producing, and this was the solution, and made all very simple to me.
Thanks ever so much! I'm so glad to be able to help! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks, Warren
That is Killer, Warren! Thank you.
Really liked that. Gorgeous.👍
Thanks ever so much
OMG Thankyou so much for this Video .. I was mixing a track today only with the one Room IR reverb I made and this trick has made my mix work ...Thank you so much for sharing your Knowledge
My type of mixing. Excellent. Sounds right.
Brilliant tips here Warren - thanks! I have often added too many reverbs and delays in the past and just ended up with a muddy mess. I'm a big believer in "less is more" in which case, and very often I've been doing much as you've done here, adding just one reverb, but love the extra delay tip on each instrument before it sends to the verb. Definitely something I'm going to be trying on my mixes.
Thanks ever so much Craig!!
Amazing how good it sounds
This is absolutely genius Warren!
This song sounds really nice to my ears. Doesn't matter if the reverb is on or off :)
Thanks ever so much!
Yep, the vocal is on point. 👍
It’s so good I kinda like it dry and intimate. Great stuff Warren.
@@buddyalbert5808 Thanks ever so much!
Eveytime I hear this it makes me smile sounds so good, sounds like a record made in the 70s..👍
Good job my friend you are one of the most inspiring people in the scene 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🎶🎶🎶
Such a great video!! I’ll be trying this!
Thanks ever so much my friend!!
I used to do that exact thing back in the day, pre-SSL, when we were recording/ mixing in the early 70's.
So cool! Thank you very much - it sounds wonderful!
Thanks ever so much
This reminds me of band recording on 8 track years ago with a single REV 7 reverb unit. Your guys play a bit better than we did but the recording you made has the feel of one of those recordings. Listening now I sort of miss recording that way. Don’t miss the stress of having to know your part for risk of cost overuns
I went "WHOAAA" the instant you switched to the Spring model. That's seriously the nicest spring plugin I've heard, got to get this one.
Wow, that sounds great!
Love that one, thank you!
Another killer trick ....cant wait to try it
Thanks ever so much! Glad to be able to help
