Another tip that works for me, quite the opposite effect but with reverb. Very short reverb on a send, like around 1/4 second long with a tiny amount of pre-delay. then add a widener to push it out to the sides, then blend it in with the dry signal where you can feel it but not hear/notice it. It works on anything really, drums and vocals are my most used. Feels bigger but still dry at the same time while adding depth. Cheers
Amazing trick thanks for sharing with the community. If you haven’t already then Check out the bettermaker reverb that recently came out. It had some super nice short reverb sounds! ua-cam.com/video/gnbjZngQ1dE/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared
This dude is a cheat code.. Word up!!! Your tips are the doo doo bruh.. Outstanding tips young man.. WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, that vocal.. WOW!!! That's beautiful.
Holy crap, Alex. When you put the echo on the piano, it was like "meh", but you turned it on for the voice versus dry reverb, it was a light bulb moment. (You're the man!)
I like using Reverb as a transition effect on the last Snare or clap of a beat before a drop, just as the beat ends wack up the reverb on full wet sounds cool.
@@Cozylillowcas_ I have a unpublished vid made weeks ago where I am doing crazy reverb transitions on a Hiphop beat using reverb modulation on claps, another technique I use. I can pubish that vid today for You.
love this technique, again amazing video; small tip i use to take this technique over the edge would be to engage the ducking features on the Valhalla delay, and also the Fabfilter Pro R2 or bettermaker BM60 Reverb with their ducking features also… THEN to be extreme i find myself using the Fabfilter Pro-Q3 to EQ match and sidechain the notched frequencies from the vocal to the reverb and pluck them out using some gentle dynamic EQ, to the Mid information… that way i find my snares and hats don’t get lost in that middle section as i tend to flood vocals with reverb 😂
I really relate to your explanation. I'm learning how to produce my own music in the digital space after a hiatus and this makes it very understandable. Thank you.
@@WhoIsAlexElliott I used this all over my upcoming single (“No Mercy”) to get a pro delay sound. The rappers performance didn’t need adlibs, so this gave me that “more felt than heard” emotion. Divine timing I guess.
100% same for the vocal also. Trackspacer in mid side mode works wonders for this. You can really take this and add your own spin and flavours. It’s the basic technique but everyone can make it their own 🙌🙌🙌
I’m sorry but I feel I have a responsibility to give them away! 😂 but peoples music sounding better is great for all! Look what Dave Pensado did for us man, we can’t hold back 💪
Let me know any cool techniques you use for great reverbs below … 🙌❤️
You should side chain it so that effect kick in when you let off notes notes
🙌🙌🙌. That’s a solid one!
@@WhoIsAlexElliott 🙏🏿🙏🏿💙

Great Advice :] I like to do Parallel Processing and lightly Pan the Reverb Only with a slight LFO

Gonna give that a go thanks
I use the same technique. Convolution reverbs with a very short impulse response works best.

Wonderful tips Alex! Love Valhalla!!
🙌 Thankyou

Haha. Thankyou brother ❤️🙌
The Engineering Professor that is Alex E.. these tips are A1 bro.. 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Ahhh thankyou
Holy crap, Alex.

Was the same for me when I first stumbled across the technique 🙌🙌🙌😅
Aye good to see Pulsar Modular giving you that sponsorship bro! Amazing tips as always 🎉
Thankyou & im happy to be working with them it’s a great company!

That’s a fantastic tip. I love doing that also!
@@WhoIsAlexElliott I use delay same as You did here but I also use eq modulation as filter to create changes in dynamics.
Do you mind and sharing a video about it? I would love to learn

Publish it 🙌🙌
...maybe a simple trick, but a GREAT one!!! Thank you so much!!!
Glad it’s helpful 🙌
Love this trick! Been using this on Solo
Guitar performances a lot recently
Oh I forget how wonderful it is on guitars also
It sounds very different than side chaining it out. Very spacious. Try it. Also sounds great to do the same thing on your music bus.
Awesome, Will do ! and thankyou
You should check out putting a center after your reverb and duck out the middle. Sits WAYYYYY better.
Amazing tip & I use Trackspacer for this and set it to mid side mode and side chain it against the vocal.
i always hit like even before i watch because i know its some fire gems
😂😂😂😂 Thankyou. 🙌

Ah awesome. I’m glad it helped and I’m glad your back to making music 🙌🙌🙌
This thing very useful ,Thank you.
No problem. Glad it was helpful
Necessary experimentation right there and you've made me think to try this experimentation on a song I'm working on now so thank you.
Awesome, Have fun! 🙌
AWESOME!
BRAVO!
Thankyou brother 🙏🙏

Thanks bro 🙌🙌🙌
Super nice tips!
👌👌🙌
Appreciate the tip Bro. Keep up the good works!
No problem and will do! 👌💪
Thanks for the tip! Love the vids man
No problem! Glad they are helping. 😊
It all made sense. A great technique well demonstrated for sure. Lovely piano sound BTW. What is that?
I’m glad it made sense! And thankyou very much. The piano sound is here!

Dude. Loved this vid. Nice work again. Kudos!
BTW. You should check out Lunar Lander by Pulsar Modular. It's freaking amazing!
New version coming end of the month. Hold your horses!
Thankyou and I have no idea about Lunar Lander so will be checking that out 💯 %
wondering how it would sound if you sidechain the two effects to the actual piano!
100% same for the vocal also. Trackspacer in mid side mode works wonders for this. You can really take this and add your own spin and flavours. It’s the basic technique but everyone can make it their own 🙌🙌🙌
Hay Alex, please don’t give away all our secrets! Please 😢

RIP Logic, though… 🥲
🤒 I think logics just sick right now but hopefully it gets some treatment and gets better. 😅😅😅
