Guiding the user in a typical 2CAudio style and line with the other 2CAudio tools an effective way to adjust the settings according to your needs. The GUI is easy to grasp, and the available options do not demand much explanation. The tool has an entirely fresh and easy to use Interface.

Humanize Effects Via Subtle Source Movement.

Super-Stereo and Other Unusual Spatial Effects.

Accurate Orchestral and Acoustic Positioning.

Precedenceuses P-Link in Breeze 2.1 and sets Breeze Mix/Balance to the same value as Precedence Distance to generate full depth/distance effect. Precedence contributes 100% of the Left-Right positioning and Breeze 2.1 (later eventually B2 or Aether) the positioning distance.Īdding Precedence and Breeze on your tracks allow you to position the instruments flawlessly in a blended location. Breeze defines a space, Precedence places the sound into this space. You can use the tool with other reverbs, as the developer can integrate the effect with other in-house tools like Breeze 2 to accomplish an unparalleled result of realism when placing an instrument on stage or in virtual rooms. Instead of using the required hardware recording tools the effect tool performs algorithms to produce in Precedence to generate a comparable end-user experience.

Higher quality models such as the AKG BX series and Bandive Great British Spring offer a slightly slicker, less lo-fi sound.Usually, instruments are recorded using the Haas Effect, binaural (see 66 Basses (Legion Series) as an example ), the Anatomical Transfer Function (ATF), or Head Related Transfer Functions (HRTF). The vibrations are captured at the other end of the springs by a pickup, converting the mechanical action back into an electrical signal.Īs a result of their relatively simplistic design, spring reverbs typically sound exactly as their name might suggest: metallic, twangy and, er… springy, for want of a better word.

Spring reverbs work in a very similar way to plates: a transducer excites one or more metal springs which reverberate in sympathy with the incoming audio signal. The truth is, most spring reverbs are useful in some way, whether it’s a cleaner, more hi-fi model for treating vocals or, at the opposite end of the scale, a dirt-cheap effect for adding gritty character to individual drum hits. As a result, this is the only hardware entry on our list where we’re taking a totally non-committal approach and refusing to pick a specific model. Unlike plate reverb and tape echo, where the EMT 140 and Roland Space Echo respectively are widely considered to be the definitive examples of their kind, spring reverb has always been a more complex category with a range of different options appealing to producers with different priorities.
