I've got a small guitar amp at hand with a small spring reverb. In dislike this spring reverb and never use it. Since I don't have the room to store my huge keyboard amp, I permanently borrow it a friend, but I'm missing it's large spring reverb a lot. I once visited an orchestra recording done by a famous American audio engineer. I was deeply impressed of the amazing reverb. The reverb available by the French sound studio truck used by the American engineer was a professional, aged L...egend. But no, the engineer didn't use this "L"everb. The reverb was made by two overhead "N"icrophones. This time my employer made "B"icrophones. I suspect the "B"icrophones as well as any other large (and perhaps even small) diameter microphones would have done the job of the "N"icrophones, too. If we have the fortune to get reverb by an original spring, that isn't too small or by a real hall made for music performance, we should use it, if we could. Sometimes we might not have the microphone, or the build in DI box of the keyboard amp is fishy and does produce unwanted noise (mine is a Peavey KB-300 ;). _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
