Great job Scott.
Great video Scott! Totally enjoyed it! Only suggestion would be to throw some compression on your voice over to even out the levels. You disappeared on me a few times
Two things:
1. (nothing to do with reverb) but you note that you set the proximity frequency to a certain setting however in the preset shown, Mic=None so the proximity has no effect.
2. Just a note about mono vs. stereo: The youtube video sounds like mono but the preset is actually in stereo so you might want to talk a bit about your approach to mono/stereo effects when preparing presets for live use - and maybe your output strategy to a single monitor vs. PA which may be in stereo. Newbie's tend to get screwed up with the stereo effects since it's not obvious from the editor what's going on.
Anyway, this was a nice basic intro to reverb. Lots of users need this type of info. It would be nice to see Fractal organize a page on their site for tutorials such as these.
Nice vid, thx for sharing!
Constructive feedback: could you balance the volume between the guitar and your voice?
Nothing but the best from Scott as usual. I would love to see some patches for a "Live" clean, crunch, gritty, and heavy patch someday from him with his "go to" template. I love using his presets for starting points in my real live patches since he has mastered this especially for using live with frfr stuff. Even though OH stuff is needed I think other users that have not purchased this can get the jist of them using stock IRs. Scott, your a great mentor for everyone here!
I didn't think the max verb was that much. And I couldn't hear any when you turned it to one quarter. Probably a lot more apparent live at volume.
Really like the way the reverb feels with those settings. Thanks for a revealing video! Keep'em coming! Maybe something with the parallel fx, I use them the same way. But still havent got the chance to get the real flavours out of them (getting classic flangers, phasers and choruses).
Watched a second time- learning a lot! I need to do some reading up on parallel vs. serial effects routing with the axe. Still don't quite understand it! What's next on the video front?

That's exactly it. When I record, I use a lot more than when I perform. And in 'real life' at volume, it is 'just right' at the 1/4 setting *IMHO* here... but cranked up it's overbearing and too much.
Just personal taste though - some like more, some like less. The mix isn't anything but a subjective thing anyway.
Dunno. Delay or Wah? What would you prefer?
I'll get into a video just on parallel vs. serial, but after there are enough of these for it to make some sense.
Delay, please, but Wah would also be awesome!Dunno. Delay or Wah? What would you prefer?
