Reverb Types

Select one of the 9 Reverb types using the left mouse button.

Fabrik Live

Live recorded audio sources sometimes have a lot of background noise. A very smooth discrete reverb on such a source will often be almost in-audible. What you need is a brighter and grainier reverb for that type of audio material, and the Live reverb is perfect for that job. Try medium to long decay times and have a listen. The Live reverb type also does wonders for vocals or instruments that need a clear and to the point reverb. Try it on different material and you’ll be surprised with the results. Two Studio Konnekt 48 comes with two variations of this algorithm. Experiment and listen to the differences.

Fabrik Hall

Often you’re concerned about preserving the natural characteristics of your source material, and reluctant to apply “large” reverbs. Don’t worry, the Hall reverb will preserve your audio and add a large hall effect giving you lots of natural sounding “space”. For most vocal material this reverb is superior to many other reverbs and will be an excellent choice for various studio applications.

Fabrik Plate

Welcome back in time! In the old days reverberating springs or large metallic plates were used to create a reverb effect. The Plate reverb emulates this characteristic type of reverb. If you’re working with a recording of percussive instruments, it will often call for a diffuse, bright and light reverb, and the Plate is just perfect for that job.

Fabrik Club

This reverb could be exactly what the doctor ordered if you want to put extra focus on the guitar or the vocals. It emulates a medium-sized club, adding a broad yet intimate feel to your audio material. If you’ve got a recorded guitar that cries out for reverb, but you don’t

want the “stadium rock” sound, the Club reverb will do the trick, well, that goes for vocals and horns too.

Fabrik Room

The Fabrik Room algorithm simulates a relatively small, well furnished room. In such a room, many reflections are absorbed by soft materials, and the sound is reflected and sustained only by the walls (covered with wallpaper), windows and maybe some furniture.

Fabrik Box

The Fabrik Box algorithm defines and excels in reproducing the reflection patterns of a small box. If the “in your face”-feeling of a 100% dry recording is too much, try this eminent reverb to create just a bit of distance.

Fabrik Ambient

With focus on the Early Reflections that define the perception of a room size, the Ambience Reverb is typically used on dry recordings or dry drum samples to emulate a feeling of environment. “Ambience” and “Room definition” are keywords here.

Fabrik Spring

The Spring algorithm has been designed to reproduce the sound of the old spring reverbs, such as the ones used in vintage guitar amps.
