The Room CSR reverb is designed to reproduce the type of reverb generated by medium to small acoustic spaces. It is particularly useful to “dress” a source recorded from dry mics in a natural environment that will not make it sound like artificial reverb, but like it was actually recorded in a real room. This is far from easy, as although the reverberation does not have a long decay, the presence and importance of the first reflections make convincing reproduction difficult.
In a mixing situation, RSE room reverb will make tracks fit better because of the natural “air” that surrounds them, or when it is harsher, it will place them on a different sonic plane, causing them to literally bounce around. of the mix.
Adjustable as little as possible, it can be an invaluable tool in a tonal palette for shaping mixes that sound 3D, articulate and real, where each track fits into its own place and space.
Try it on a dry acoustic guitar and hear how the CSR Room module instantly makes it sound more real and realistic. Percussion instruments are also a very good candidate for this processor, especially in studio recordings with a very controlled environment that should be more "loose" in a mixing context.
