I asked this to my teacher a while ago, basically using a reverb insert makes it sound far away cuz the mix knob in the plugin does it so that you "loose" 20% of the vocal if the mix is at 20%, the more mix the less vocal. then if its a send, it's like paralell compression he told me, you have your unaltered dry and you add the reverb to taste, that way you don't "loose" signal like with the mix knob before, you just add more to what it is already there, sorry for the bad english btw
@@marcelogutierrez6489 Interesante, Marcelo. Siempre he tratado de dejarlo lo más natural posible, pero no lo he alcanzado por un send, me gusta más cuando lo insterto en el track, pero igual mi próxima mezcla lo volveré a intentar con un send. Gracias!

I think something important to note is alot of producers will route the reverb in from a separate track. Weeknd is a good example of that it preserves quality while having a lovely wash. I never bought vintage because the same algorithms are used in Supermassive, and that is free.
@jazzlevit no worries and no disrespect to this youtuber, but a good reverb depends on its algorithm. I don't think you need to buy something because "all the pros use this"
Vahalla vintage verb is such a brilliant reverb! Also, it is low on cpu but doesn't affect the quality.. I definitely agree it's miles better to use a separate eq
Looking forward to watching this, I've never really got on with vintageverb tbh, uad lexicon is my baby Thanks for the breakdown streaky, gonna have another play with it
Isn't it better to leave it at 100% wet and do the mixing via the send controls? I always thought if you do it like this AND also use a send this might produce phase issues.
Great video bro! Valhalla Vintage Verb's a definite go to. It's pretty easy to understand and laid out well compared to some other reverb plugins. It's no wonder so many producers & engineers stand by it.
My question is, was this the final tutorial of this reverb? And again, sure the EQ is more effective than the reverb embedded EQs. And you talked about applying third party EQ on it, So how you gonna apply an EQ on the reverb being that the mix level is about 15%, meaning you can as well apply the reverb directly on the vocal without side chaining? Again, is it a must to adopt the popular method out there of side channing the reverb so you can control it, I.e the method that let's you apply efx like EQ, compressor on the reverb so the reverb ducks while the vocal plays and the reverb releases after the vocal finishes playing to achieve that upfront vocal? This method is nice, but I am facing one problem especially with the valhalla, after the vocal finishes playing, the amount of swelling that comes with the teil is what I don't like, it usually have longer teil and the reverb will be everywhere, and trying to mess with the decay knob by reducing it, the lesser wetness I get, though many people said that is what they love, but I had like my vocal to be very wet, still you can't or barely notice a longer teil of the decay of the reverb, example is " Fortniggt by Taylor swift, extremely wet and blur) but you notice no extra long teil from the reverb after vocal finishes. Meanwhile, if I apply the reverb directly on the vocal, I will just derive what I wanted ( wet but no long teil of decay) but unable to control the reverb itself. Pls If you get my question, I will like to get your feedback on this if you have better idea...
I just don't get why everyone keeps saying that Valhalla plugins are cheap in 2024. How is €50 cheap for a basic reverb?? The brand new Izotope Aurora costs literally €38 if you own any other Izotope plugin... Raum by NI is FREE, people! Amazing reverb... What about Arturia's top-tier reverbs which can be had for pocket change as part of their FX bundle when it's on sale? What about your DAW's stock reverbs? I could go on... I feel like Valhalla is just like Fabfilter in this regard. They're keeping their prices unreasonably high due to brand recognition and not much else... Plenty of great competitors out there.
@@Streaky_com That's the part I always have the most trouble with is damping. I never know what to select. Thanks so much for 'trying' to explain a lot of it though. I think I'm starting to get it....maybe.
Je vois actuellement, beaucoup de personnes utilisées des pédales de réverb. Qu’en penses-tu, est-ce parce que certaines pédales sont analogiques que le grand peut être différent ou simplement tu penses une question de workflow ? Et si parmi vous y en a qui me lisent qui utilise des pédales. Et quelles pédales utilisez-vous, Actuellement je suis en pleine réflexion pour essayer de trouver une pédale de qualité quelque chose de logique. J’en ai un peu marre du numérique, cela étant je me rends compte en regardant cette vidéo, on peut faire de très belles choses avec des plugins !
I want to say something I saw yr tutorial u talk more show less (give theoretical knowledge more than practical ) not every time but most of times and u are one of the dopest master engineer but I haven't seen a detailed video of yr in which u are mastering a song from scratch in the way u finally master for ur client u seem insecure that somebody try ur secret sauce let me tell u something u are experienced and experience can't beaten by any vst presets approach what do u think the engineer out there know everything saw videos like these if they know these topics its not because of revising basics its for approaches of different person ❤
If you click on where it says presets, which is at DEFAULT to begin with, then click to "Save as" that should open the location. Certainly does for me anyway
Brilliant just what i needed as i have this reverb but needed a preset pack for vocals, Also Streaky, do you have any tutorials on how to use these vocal reverbs when you need to compress/gate them using big reverbs so they don't spill all over the place ? btw is the doggo the real manager ? lol
I am using > 5000 Euro hardware reverbs. Will you still be able to master my songs? Of course I don't want you to mix my songs with a few VST plugins when I produced the stuff with 100,000 Euros on analogue.
It's more to do with knowing what to do with the tools you use. Having thousands of Euros worth of gear means nothing unless you really know how to use it well. Software is so good now that a mix done with virtual tools in the hands of someone with a high level of knowledge and experience of mixing and mastering will beat someone less knowledgeable and experienced with expensive gear. Maybe you are a really skilled person and that's fine. However, it's quite dismissive to write off the quality of sound someone might be able to achieve with plug ins.
Your video title does not fit the content. That annoying tbh. there no "perfect reverb" they all use anyway. and btw, sitze and attack are much more important than pre delay in this case and can dramatically change the impression of the position. and also, reverb must work in the whole context of a mix. this video shows nothing but "hey i opened valhalla vintage verb and look how it sounds!!!". who is your audience? like amateurs who started mixing yesterday? if so, ok, nothing wrong with that. but the description of your videos portrait to me that you are actually giving away value, which is not the case. it's just basic info that even chat gpt whould give anywone because it is so basic.
You can tweak a reverb for hours, or you can use the presets from Streaky and instead spend your time being creative and making music. That’s why I like this channel. Do you think a reverb will make or break an artist? (Just curious, I’m not a pro.)
@@erikolsen1686 you are right, it's not going anywhere to tweak any plugin for literally hours. I'm just saying that you actually don't learn anything here regarding the important parameters like size and attack, which tremendously alters the dimensional experience of the reverb. I mean, I watched an 8 hours in depth reverb masterclass. I'm probably not the target audience here. And also, using presets is perfectly fine!
@@paulmisty8998 Good to know it’s fine to use presets😅 I don’t see any problems with Streaky’s content. Also good that you know a lot about reverb. Have a nice day.
This is right up my street.
First time I'm going to be using vocals on my next track.
Top plug'in.
0:39 puppy! 🐶
The dramatic intro was on point.
I use Valhalla Room, they are all pretty much the same. Very good reverbs, yes!
Nice tutorial! Question: I notice you use this as an insert rather than a Send. Why? When should you send and when insert?
I asked this to my teacher a while ago, basically using a reverb insert makes it sound far away cuz the mix knob in the plugin does it so that you "loose" 20% of the vocal if the mix is at 20%, the more mix the less vocal. then if its a send, it's like paralell compression he told me, you have your unaltered dry and you add the reverb to taste, that way you don't "loose" signal like with the mix knob before, you just add more to what it is already there, sorry for the bad english btw

Ive watched all of your Tutorials and ive learned so much from you. Will defintatley be buying your mixing Courses.
I truly appreciate all your advice and love your presentation!
Valhalla vintage is awesome .
Thanks for the update, you are the boss

The vintage verb is great, I use it on pretty much every project.
Streaky you need to update your Vintage Verb! They’ve added quite a few more modes now, the last 3 added, Palace, Hall 84 and Chamber 79 are lush! 😍
Thanks for that tip! I was behind on updates too.
Valhalla Vintage Verb is amazing ❤

Really a Must have!!!
Thanks a lot!! I
I will try it soon
Always Legit !!! And the mixing course is great also.
Isn't it better to leave it at 100% wet and do the mixing via the send controls? I always thought if you do it like this AND also use a send this might produce phase issues.
Whatever works for you. He mainly did it this way for demonstration.
This is on the vocal not the send so yes
Thanks for the tip!

Thankyou so helpful I look at those presets
Thanks a lot for this video, I see this used everywhere. I've always used neoverb, not sure if it's a good alternative.
Always top notch tips👌🏻😯
I like the vintage verb
I also use the hardware Bricasti M7
best REVERB ALIVE
You’re awesome
Thanks for the video mate. Can you please tell me about that rollerball mouse thing you use? Why is it better etc? Cheers bud.
Quicker and not moving around the desk
Nice tip. Thanks 😊
Very good one pls can you do a tutorial on how to mix a track from scratch I'm new in logic don't know where to start from anytime I open the DAW
Grab my logic course it will teach you streaky.com
Thanks! great video
How they sound every.single.time. :)
Streaky will be the next narrator for the marvel movies.
I got that vibe too. Haha
Or on discovery channel, right before the break at a pawnstars episode.
Could you do a 7th heaven demonstration since it's harder to configure?
thanks
Great video Thank youuu

youd want to update your plugin. new modes chamber and hall 1979 are great.
Still using version 2? It's currently at version 4.0.5
Hey Mr.Streaky, you got any review on 7th heaven?
I used the VerbSuite Classics from Slate Digital since a long time and it seems not so many plugins can match it.
Thank you I did subscribe to your channel because this is so outstanding knowledge also I leave a like in this comment ❤❤❤ I appreciate it!
DEAR STREAKY! REAL QUESTION: is there really no damping setting? 😭

Yeah check my channel
Good vid, but to be fair... we've all known about vintage verb for years. Like literally everyone and their dogs have it.
I’ve got Valhalla vintage and fab filter pro2 but I still prefer Valhalla
It's okish, but definitely not top dog. Just punt cinematic rooms next to it for instance. No contest.
He said big knob.😅
the sound of that time/pitch stretched vocal sample is p grating.
Yeah
I am a hardware nut, but the Valhalla stuff is amazing.
