Killer vocal reverb using Acoustic Mirror? -Sound Forge - PC

Subject:Killer vocal reverb using Acoustic Mirror? Posted by: MECressey Date:9/26/2002 2:20:21 PM OK, I broke down and bought the 32 Bit Float IR CD with impulse files created from the TC Electronic M2000/5000 and the Lexicon 480L. They're great! I'm learning how to use them in AM (not that hard). I've figured out how to create a separate reverb track and add it in my mix - this is the way to go. The big question is which impulse to use and what AM settings to get that really nice reverb sound like on James Taylor and Paul Simon's (and other) recordings. I'm experimenting with pre-day, hall/chamber/plate verbs, etc., etc., but I still approaching this in a hunt-and-peek fashion. I've gotten about every reference to reverb & vocals, you can find on the net. Any thoughts/experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Mike
