Reverberation Research Questions Responses (Juuso) 1.

. Describe the first type of reverb to be "invented", and the best types of microphone / polar pattern to use to capture this type of reverb. 6. What is the name of the famous Spring Reverb produced later by Hammond; when was it produced; what famous amp was it used in?

2. What is an Echo Chamber? A physical place created to reverberate, a mic is placed in the chamber and then a loudspeaker plays the signal and the reverb is picked up

3. Where did Spring Reverb originate from? The hammond organ company used a spring reverb system for their line of organs in 1960, it was so popular they released it as a seperate product called Accusonics type 4 reverb

Echo chamber, condenser with an omni directional polar pattern

4. How does a Spring Reverb work? a spring(s) is placed in a 'tank' and then an audio signal is sent to one end of the spring(s) by a transducer which then sends wave through the spring(s). at the other end of the spring their is another transducer, this converts the signal into electrical signal which is added to the dry sound 11. The most popular Digital Reverb in history is the? When was it released? What type of reverbs does it simulate? i tried googling the last questions due to my lack of revision guide but i couldn't find anything solid, a lot of misleading information :/

5. State a potential problem when using Spring Reverb. if the reverb tank is moved there can be a loud percussive sound cause by the springs crashing in to each other or the tank.

7. Name a famous Plate Reverb and when it was produced.

Accusonics type 4 reverb and then used in the fender vibroverb

EMT 140 Reverberation Unit 1957 (german)

8. How does a Plate Reverb work? a steel plate is placed under tension supplied by springs at the corners where the plate iss attached to an outer shell. The plate studio environments, gets vibrated with a signal from a transducer and the vibration due to their larger EMT 250 Electronic Reverberator is sensed elsewhere on the plate with a contact microphone size Unit

9. Plate reverbs are particularly suited to...

10. Who produced the first commercially available Digital Reverb, and when? What was a problem with it?

12. Digital Reverbs nowadays commonly come in what format?

13. Describe the following Reverb Parameters: Pre-Delay; Reverb Time; Size; Early Reflections; Density; High and Low frequency controls; High frequency damping; Presets

14. What is a Convolution Reverb?
