What is Freeverb in audio?

freeverb is a stereo reverb unit based on Jezar’s public domain C++ sources, composed of eight parallel comb filters on both channels, followed by four allpass units in series. The filters on the right channel are slightly detuned compared to the left channel in order to create a stereo effect.

What does damping do for reverb?

Damping. Damping is the absorption of high frequencies in the reverb. Low damping values yield less high-frequency absorption, whereas high damping values produce more absorption of high frequencies.

What is diffusion on reverb?

Diffusion: Diffusion refers to the number of directions in which the reverb travels once it hits the reflective surface. A high diffusion results in a thicker reverb sound, with all of the reflections blending together, where a low diffusion can result in the reverb reflections sounding much more distinct.

What is Schroeder reverb?

Schroeder describes a way of mixing the input and output of the series allpass reverberator, in such a way that the resulting sound is allpass. By turning the “wet” gain up, the coefficient of the outer allpass is increased, which will result in an echo density that increases with time, as well as a longer reverb time.

Where is GVerb in audacity?

GVerb is still available as a separate download inside the “SWH” suite of LADSPA effect plug-ins. This suite is available for Windows, Mac and Linux. (or to C:\Program Files (x86)\Audacity\Plug-Ins on a 64-bit version of Windows).

What is the best reverb settings?

Move the pre-delay to about 30-40% or so as a starting point and see how it sounds. With your EQ, maybe set the high-pass around 200Hz and the low-pass at about 12kHz. In a situation like this, you may want to have more body in the reverb. The following example shows a dual-reverb setup.

What is a reverb setting?

Simulates the amount of time it takes for a sound to leave its sound source and create a first reflection. Setting a slight pre-delay offsets the reverb from the dry signal, which can prevent reverb from “stepping on” the signal being reverberated.
