Reverb is one of the oldest tools we have as engineers to enhance our recordings. But how do we use it? What type should we use? Can YOU hear the difference?
In this puremix.net Exclusive, Grammy Award Winning Engineer, Fab Dupont teaches you:
- How to hear the difference between plate, spring, hall, and chamber reverbs
- How to use short ambience to add size to your vocals
- How to add a sense of height to your mixes with hall reverbs.
Plus, if you have ever been curious about how popular reverb plugins compare to their real-life counterparts, you will be able to listen to:
- A real EMT 140 plate reverb next to the UAD EMT 140
- A Spring Reverb plugin next to a real AKG BX10
- A classic Hardware PCM 70 Chamber next to a plug-in Chamber.
Learn how to hear the characteristics of these classic sounds, from Fab Dupont. Only on pureMix.net.

I spent 90 minutes watching a video that is less than 40 minutes long, and every minute spent was worth it beyond compare. I started watching it in my lounge, but quickly moved to my studio to really hear what is being explained properly. I learnt a shit load. Thanks Fab

Really nice and practical tutorial about reverbs. Definitely a topic for go deeper "I wish more on that, also with delays" but FAT did it straight to the point and very fun to go thorugh. Also very happy I've got 10/10 in the quiz reverb.
Amazing and very informative this How to listen episode.

"You can hear a fly fart from the other side of the room". Laughing loud :) Seriously though, it was just the gravy on a super-important point for someone like me to hear. Great!

Yes! Now I know the difference and I can chose the right one. Thanks Fab!
