We would like to add reverbs to our drums, but too much can flood the mix. Here’s a way we can alter the signal that’s feeding the reverb. To create a much tighter reverb effect on your reverb bus, add a transient designer. I’ve got an envelope. Before your reverb, adjust the settings like this. So you’re removing the tail and slightly boosting the attack. This is how it sounds. Now, when this feeds the reverb, we have a much more spacious sound, resulting in a punchier drum.
