The layers of sends for all the reverbs and delays is the part that I could spend an hour just seeing how people do it.
"They always sound cool, until they don't" is gold! Sooo true!
The best and the most original tutorial about reverb and delay I've ever seen. Great composer, great player and great teacher.
Wow, thanks!
That panned slap on an acoustic is a neat trick I'll be using
You suggested sharing additional tips...
I very often place an EQ with low pass and high pass filtering before my reverbs to avoid sending unwanted frequencies into the reverb. Alternately, you could place a de-esser to knock out those "spitty" moments. In Ableton, I have an effects rack with a full pass path and a parallel reverb with resonant high and low pass filters with out of sync modulation on each filter. This creates a shifting source into the reverb. It's great for static drum and percussion samples and gives you a varied space behind the source. Try phasers, choruses, etc....
One more.. try putting a saturator and compressor before the reverb or delay to simulate the soft clipping/limiter circuits in old rack units. I'm a big fan of the Deltalab Effectrons and Alesis MidiVerb 2. They have a great way of breaking up or getting brighter when you hit them harder, this method gives you some of that. Send less and the effect is darker/cleaner, send more and it's brighter/dirtier.
That harmonica is straight up from heaven
That song at the end was absolutely beautiful
A great thing Jon did that he didn't point out: sometimes the delay isn't (only) in the effect, but the arrange/performance of something IS the delay. The lead voice sang "on and on", but then the back vocals sang "on and on and on and on and on and on" which is basically just building in the concept of delay straight into the composition itself!
Great point. Also glad he pointed out the use of an analog style delay.
Logic’s delays tend to be very digital, so looking for better options.
The delay designer can duck out nicely but it’s a bit tedious. Some days it’s fun to control the pan, filter, and volume of each delay, but most days I prefer turning knobs.
One of the best reverb tutorials I've seen. thank you very much.
You’re a great teacher! Thanks for taking the time to do this. 🙏🏼
Thank you Jon for imparting your years of knowledge, allowing some of us to grow our results by leaps and bounds.
This was fantastic! Loved the example of sending delays to the opposite side when choosing to hard-pan a track. I’ve read that that is the way to do it, but had never seen the idea applied. Also loved the in depth description of each reverb/delay and how you are using it.
Sounds so pleasant... And thanks for clearing up some things for me🙏
Wow! Thank you!!! will check out your site too!
Incredible...
I dont think I ever had 22 min of full focus while watching a youtube video.
Just amazingly made and super helpful. Thank you
Really enjoyed your discussion of the room. That acoustic guitar recording sounds great.
Very well done. Not only do you teach but you make the lesson fun,
I just came across your channel and I have to say this video is one of the most helpful I’ve found on you tube. Thanks
So clean, informative and funny! Thank you Jon
This was amazing. Its a combination of short film aesthetic with tutorial information and a healthy dose of meta comedy that somehow makes you smile and understand better. wow.
Thank you so much!
Very informative ! Thank you
Great video! Thank you much!
Love your channel!
Spectacular video. Thanks a ton.
Jon, you are a KING! 👑
Loved the RL slap delay trick, tnx!
Your hard work on this tutorial is greatly appreciated. I learned a lot and will use this in my production.
Thank you, David!
THANK YOU!!! ❤
Excellent demo and explanation. If you can use that level of talent, creating a song about reverb and delay, it only makes sense that you know what you're talking about. Thanks for adding to my knowledge base.
great video learned a lot!
perfect, thank you 👍
Thank you!
This was helpful. Thank you. 🙂
reverb and delay sound sickkkkkkkkkkk
Informative and a cool tune ❤
Thank You Very Much!
🙂🙏
song actually slaps
very cool. thank you
Well, watching that video was a real treat.
Great tutorial thank you!
That. Was awesome. 🙂
You’re such a great teacher!
Thank you!
Thanks for this masterclass, Jon. Great tips about mixing the different types of reverb, and I especially liked the way you run the FX inserts through an EQ first. I'll be trying all your tricks for myself :-)
This video was fantastic, your channel is great, thanks for everything you do
Great video!
Thanks a lot for this :)
for the past 2-3 years I've been sending my bass to one of the iso-booth´s from the Sunset Sound Reverb. just a subtle widening and acoustic placement which sounds really nice.
I need to check that out!
Very informative, thank you for sharing this
Glad it was helpful!
That was fun. It would be great to see a similar video when you are limited to what you can do on a live performance.
Thank you
If I start doing tutorials, I’m using this concept of recording a song to demonstrate. I like the idea of simplicity as well to start with standard reverbs and delays then simply control its mix and time.
Kudos to the modulation trick as well.
Thanks!
I love your videos !!!!!!!!
Just found your channel ... super enjoyed this.
Awesome, thank you!
Mixing with reverb and delay can be a subtle art. Please share your favorite tips and tricks for achieving both realistic and creative spaces.
Great video Jon. Sometimes I will use a compressor on the reverb/delay bus that is side chained from the vocal just to duck to retain clarity. I notice some reverbs have this built in now.
@@Sesaon3 I was going to mention compressing the reverb as well. I sometimes use a compressor on a reverb that is on a drum to get extra boom.
Sidechaining the effect to the source is really helpful for keeping things clear and more present.
great video you address most of the important part. I would just add tha I think it's always good to make sure you've got all the screws in your telecaster :P
Your a Engineer Genius!!
Great video!!!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it
Genius 🙏
I just discovered this channel. This is great.
You need to release this song!
Wow! I love that 'cool moment' on ~18:11, such a genuine emotion, perfectly reflecting the sound.
Thank you so much for making your videos so good, comprehensive and dense with useful wisdom!
I also love the song in the end! 🎸🎹 🎶After this song we have no excuse on using the Reverb and Delay poorly! 😆
amazing video. Should have thousands of likes and more views.
genius
Embrace that hard pan, my friend! Love panning stuff +/-100.
Have not used the Softube algo verb yet, I have been in love with the Ocean Way UA plug for the cohesive room stuff.
Also adore "playing" my hardware boxes during mix, moving things slightly so the modulation is less reliable, more real world/random. Works especially well with OTO BIM delay.
also some lovely S Carey vibes on those BGVs 👏
very good tricks. the song and your vocals sound like dire straits , hehe
The only time I use reverb on a bus is when I know I'll be sending multiple channels (like snare and toms) to that one reverb. Otherwise, everything gets its own reverb - whatever I'm feeling like at the time, but usually Seventh Heaven Professional because it is versatile and always sounds amazing
Can you do a video on the camera gear you use? It looks amazing
Simply Amazing ..!! Best wishes from India
Thank you very much!
Great video as always, Jon! Loved what you said about using the original source material and getting creative with it. I'm a huge advocate of that.
This video is fantastic! I often struggle with excessive reverb and harshness in my mixes. These tips are definitely worth trying out. On an unrelated note, I was wondering if you could recommend a display monitor that would be a good match for my 2017 iMac with 5K Retina display. I recently purchased a Mac studio and I'm having difficulty finding a suitable monitor. Any suggestions you have would be greatly appreciated.
Hi, what benefits Valhalla delay gives you over Echoboy? I own Echoboy and always thought that's all you need.
Great tutorial, lots of great insights and useful info. We're going to share this with student from our apprenticeship program . I just wish you didn't have to make the title "Why your REVERBS & DELAYS sound AMATEUR!", but I suppose it helps get the video more views. In thinking about this excellent video, you don't say at all about why other people sound amateur, you just present a bunch of really cool reverb and delay techniques.
great
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Might I suggest a bit of additional parallel compression on the vocal to help the softer parts be more intelligible. Thanks!
Can you write a song about paradiddles and flams next?
Hi Jon. Thank you for the great content. Informative and a fun song indeed ;) I'd like to point out that your voice quality made me instant think of Mark Knoffler, I think if you released a record in his style (post Dire Straits when he went solo), added to your mixing skills, there could be something there!
not a bad idea!
I totally agree
What vocal mic are you using?
👌
Sounds very Dire Straits.
Are Slap L and Slap R mono returns?
Right away some of this is a bit advanced for me. The terms "inserts" and "return" for example. Where might I find something more basic?
The filming, editing, grading, music and mix of this video is so good. And that's on top of all the excellent info. 🤌
You brushed over one little detail where you said that you didn't want any pre-delay on your guitar track because you wanted more togetherness (hugely paraphrased). I usually default to some pre-delay on all my verbs. I probably reach for that little knob pretty quick on every reverb plugin I put on a track. I tend to like it, but could it be contributing to more mud issues in a mix?
Also: Curse you for writing such a catchy ballad. It's stuck in my head. I don't even like ballads and I've been singing "Reverb, and Delay" around the house all morning. My kids think I'm crazy and my wife is begging me to shut up. Thanks.
Just like other effects, pre-delay or most other settings, it can likely depend on the track and overall mix composition. What I think I'm trying to say is one exact setting isn't always what to use. Modify, like bending it a bit from x, to that specific sound and vibe you're after in specific guitar, vocal, piano, etc.
Because you need an actual board and mixer....but like everything it's get better with time....most DAWs don't really improve sound quality....they just easier to with and not as cumbersome with all them patch cords and space...all music sounds better going through a board..plus you gotta test the mix in different speakers etc
Easier to work with
How do you edit this magical content? Any software tips for tutorials?
Thanks man!
Keep em coming!
there's more than 22 minutes of content in this video to learn!
«sure some reverbs might sound better than the others” very mature and professional. Good luck.
5:44 Kilohearts plugins come with ProTools?
ahh. I was wrong. I believe they come with the Slate Bundle. Sorry about that.
@@JonMeyer Kilohearts are their own company with their own plugins and bundles. I don't use ProTools so I don't know who's plugins are bundles with it. For all I know Avid and Kilohearts could have an agreement.

Is it true that every white man has a guitar
Too long vid, don't have patience
Oh and get a different mic - this one makes your Ss too obvious or try not to push preamp too much.
thank you for the constructive feedback
Yours sound pretty amateur to me.
You just start talking about what u do, “do this” in the most arbitrary fashion possible, exactly the opposite of a strategy considering your vid title
