Oh dear... id-iots like you just love wasting people's time.

Armin's music doesn't have to be stolen to be listened to.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxvpctgU_s8

FWIW, unlike like you, he is a hard working guy with talent and massive 19,102,421 views.

And this is the reason why myself and millions of others love the reverb he is using and we want to get a similar effect. Don't care if you like it or not, I'm working on it.

If you have no ideas, (You and other geniuses with too much time and to little talent!) that's fine. Try achieving what Armin has achieved.

I worked it out by myself (nearly) anyway but I just want to get other people's opinions and suggestions.

Others - not yours cause you're not polite and obviously lacking any relevant knowledge.

HuberK - Who is this girl? - she has a nice voice.

I don't think there's anything too special on her voice. Sounds like a long Lexicon hall program where the individual delay voices (that make up the verb program) have been individually modulated. I don't think you can replicate that type of movement with any plugin or even most reverbs. However, you could try feeding a hall program - a dark hall preferably - with a stereo delay signal with just a small amount of feedback on.

For what it is worth: at the very end of the song you can hear two effects. The first is a long hall - the second is a stereo delay. I am probably wrong about the overall effect being a modulated reverb - though you can certainly get this kind of sound like that. Very nice tone to the whole mix.

You can hear it when the girl starts singing.
It's a reverb and a delay going into a reverb.

Hmmm... cheese ball epic trance. Figured it'd be Armin Van Buuren. That shit is popular because the crowd it's aimed at (****** bag guidos with shiny shirts, and *****s with fake tits) have the collective IQ of about 60. The girls like anything "pretty" and the guys like what the girls like. It's meat market music. If you REALLY want to be a copy cat, it sounds like nothing but some delay and reverb. Now stay home and practice.

Bow to the Armin Van Bunicorn!

Look at how many views that man has!!! You know what that's worth?



Just because he can win a popularity contest doesn't mean that he's talented.

You and millions of others are making cheezy trance!

God help us all, the banal mediocrity will taint the collective unconscious beyond repair I fear

why all the hating? Leaving aside personal tastes, the track is well-arranged, the mix is excellent, and this singer has a beautiful voice - the video is very nicely done as well.

I actually listened to some remixes of this track and thought most of them were pretty awful. It's nice to see a trance track that's actually a functioning song.

Hai Guys!


I don't get it.
when you see a pissugly car, but in E_X_A_C_T_L_Y the right color you like, are you going to hate the color too from then on?
I'm just asking.

a. maybe
b. for sure! gag reflex
c. nah, I just block Armin out of my life
d. fish & chips!

the reverb sounds pretty bright. no idea what it is.
my sony *strokes frontpanel* has something like that, but not exactly...

oops. fail.tutt


i actually know a guy who worked on this and i've just this moment asked if he remembered the reverb he used. he does! and it's not a unit you'd expect....
unfortunately i'm not going to tell you because you've gone about this all wrong. you can't come here and insult a bunch of strangers and call them all talentless and then ask for help.

true. some on this thread were unkind (before me).

but i dont like the instant ego agression he comes back with. just utter shit talk. don't want it/ see it too often and when i do it just turns me against the guy doing it. its a shame that it makes me agressive in response. and then it goes on and on

someone should tell him it doesnt matter what reverb it is. i think he asked the question badly to start with. i originally put that down to bad english but then, a few posts down. BAM! very good english. so. pfff.
