Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reverb is one of the most important processors to know how to use. It's responsible for creating the entire perception of space in a mix. Without the organic sound of reverb, mixes would sound flat and lifeless. When I first started using reverb, I had no idea what I was doing. There were tons of presets to flip through, and I felt like I had to tweak everything about them. This led to lots of confusion and I ended up using reverb too much, or just avoiding it because I just wasn't confident I'd get what I was after. It took me years to discover the correct way to use reverb and the 3-Space Reverb Framework is the result of that. This reverb framework is deceptively simple and it works because it's the answer to how and why we use multiple reverbs in a mix. It's the answer to how we configure reverbs together. The framework tells us that different reverb types take up different amounts of mix real-estate. Once we know how to manage our mixing real-estate with reverb then it becomes much easier to achieve bigger, cleaner sounding mixes. This book will help you learn how to use reverb so that your mixes become more detailed. It will help you learn exactly how to combine reverbs together, and most importantly it will help you effectively shape and create the environment of your mix so that it sounds exactly the way you want.
