Room reverb recreates the reflections and decay of a relatively small enclosed space. Its compact scale, closely spaced early reflections, […]

Hall reverb is an audio effect that recreates the reflections and long, dense decay associated with a large performance hall.

Reverberation time is the number of seconds sound takes to decay by 60 dB after its source stops. Usually written

Reverb types include room, hall, chamber, ambience, plate, spring, algorithmic, convolution, gated, and shimmer. These names don’t describe the same

Reverb and delay are time-based effects with different results. Reverb blends dense reflections into a smooth tail that suggests a

Delay time is the interval between an original sound and its echo. To calculate a quarter-note delay in milliseconds, divide

Reverb pre-delay is the time between the original dry sound and the beginning of its reverberant response. A short pre-delay

Acoustic treatment is the controlled use of absorbers, bass traps and diffusers to manage reflections, reverberation and resonances inside a

Room acoustics is the way sound behaves inside an enclosed space as direct sound combines with reflections, resonances, and reverberation.

Reverb in music production creates reflected sound around a recording, giving it space, depth, distance and cohesion. Producers shape it
