I have no idea why the hip hop community is so afraid of reverb as its a GOOD thing. |
When I mix hip hop, I'm not afraid of verb at all. For early reflections and short "verb" sounds I like a stereo delay better a lot of times. Although sometimes nothing beat an EMT 140 plate.
And when their is real instruments in the hip hop track, especially on my tracks (like classical guitar), I definitely add some verb to it. But I rarely add a long verb to vox unless it's for effect or when their is a shouting chorus. I do the reverse verb effect a lot too.
Like always, "it depends".
