The hardware accelerated effects engine is an E-mu FX8010 DSP integrated into the Creative Technology's audio chip and was historically used to enhance MIDI output by adding effects (such as reverb and chorus) to the sampled instruments on 'wavetable' sample-based synthesis cards (which is often confused with the "wavetable synthesis" developed ...

The reverse reverb is applied to the first word or syllable of the vocal for a build-up effect or other-worldly sound. Metallica used the effect in the song "Fade To Black" on James Hetfield's vocals in their 1984 album Ride The Lightning. The effect was also employed by Genesis (on Phil Collins’ snare drum) at the end of the song “Deep in ...
The first reverb effects, introduced in the 1930s, were created by playing recordings through loudspeakers in reverberating spaces and recording the sound. [2] The American producer Bill Putnam is credited for the first artistic use of artificial reverb in music, on the 1947 song "Peg o' My Heart" by the Harmonicats.
Reverberation is applied artificially by using reverb effects, which simulate reverb through means including echo chambers, vibrations sent through metal, and digital processing. [ 5 ] Although reverberation can add naturalness to recorded sound by adding a sense of space, it can also reduce speech intelligibility , especially when noise is ...
ValhallaDSP says this reverb is best for the sound of "old school digital hardware reverbs". [13] One review feels that while it is excellent for getting the unreal larger than life sound of a classic Lexicon reverb, it does not work as a subtle reverb effect and is not a reverb for every occasion. [15]
The sound of a bullet entering a person from a close distance may sound nothing like the sound designed in the above example, but since very few people are aware of how such a thing actually sounds, the job of designing the effect is mainly an issue of creating a conjectural sound which feeds the audience's expectations while still suspending ...
