Default Re: Vocal reverbs

You'll never get close to anything but a grainy spring reverb imitation with D-Verb.

You already have the Renaissance Reverb and it's pretty nice. You should be able to fiddle with the EQ settings (roll off the low end) and get something satisfactory (not GREAT, but at least OK). Add some pre-delay also.

Realverb seems to be the best-sounding "Lexi-like" plugin verb available for RTAS, but it's only a poor-man's substitute for a PCM91 or better.

I think ABBA used a lot of plate reverb sounds, didn't they?

Also, try adding chorus to all but the lead vocals: another ABBA trademark.

BTW, your studio isn't in a box or a plastic bucket, is it? [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] Part of the sound is the ROOM you use for recording those vocals.
