What is going on! Continuing on with a
minimalist setup. In this video we're
going to look at how you can achieve
reverb with virtually no gear. Completely
DIY but first I'd like to invite you to
like share and subscribe to our sampler
channel and with that let's get to it.
Alright so back in the day, before even a
four-track recorder was attainable.
We would use is a regular stereo double
cassette recorder. To make beats, to
record things, to do any project that
involved making music
Why? Because everyone's parents had at
least one double deck cassette player. In
that era we would make entire songs on
this thing and one of the things that
could be done is creating reverb and
that's what we're gonna recreate here
today but with a little more gear but
the same principle applies. And this is
something that you can do today easily
so first off you'll need a cassette
player. Doesn't have to be double-deck.
Second is a mixer or audio Preamp or anything
that you can plug a microphone into I'm
using a preamp but a DJ mixer or regular
mixer would do just fine now if you are
using a preamp like me you'll need a
bunch of these because at some point
you're gonna have to get your signal
into mono you will also need the star of
the show which is a microphone what
you're gonna do with this microphone is
plug it into the preamp and where every
year station you're going to run it as
far as possible
for this example I just put it in
another room in the house then you'll
take the output from your preamp and
plug it into one of the inputs on your
tape deck then make sure you turn your
speaker's up loud enough that the
microphone in the other room can pick up
the signal coming out of your speakers
you guys already see what's gonna happen
now right so we got a microphone in the
next room and that will make up one side
of our recording and for the other side
will use a beat from the MPC 2000
classic well output model from the MPC
and that is gonna go into the other
channel of the tape deck so we got one
channel microphone the other channel MPC
so now that we have everything in place
what will happen is because the
microphone is so far away from the
speaker's it's gonna be delayed and it's
also going to pick up the space of the
room
you're in and it's gonna sound like a
reverb so let's take a listen to what it
sounds like and now as we bring up the
gain on the preamp will introduce the
sounds of the microphone picking up the
sound of the room and the music writes
about some reverb going on all d-iii all
on the sheet no external effects
processor needed this is as budget as it
gets so now that we're here let's listen
to what the tape playback sound like
compared to the clean recording that
you're hearing which is of course
digital so we'll just switch over to the
tape notice how the tape sounds a little
bit more indents button you can hear the
hiss which by the way was the worst
thing ever in the 80s we spent a lot of
thought and time to try and get rid of
hiss and it's now 2018 and you don't
want the hips back but anyway let's
check out how the reverb sounds coming
off a tape this type of reverb
you cannot recreate this with any other
effects processor this is something else
because it's so low tech and so grungy
that in many applications it's exactly
what's needed but how could you use this
back in the day now you let it cassette
with a beat or music or anything on the
left side and your di
Reverb on the other side so you can now
take this cassette to your friend's
house to anybody else with the double
deck recorder bring your double deck
recorder and now you can add anything
you want by ping pong in from
double-deck recorder to double deck
recorder and you of course do this when
your parents were at home because you'd
be making a whole lot of noise and first
certain you would end up recording over
their cassettes because that's the way
we did it back then and you just hope
that they didn't play the cassette and
find out that you recorded over their
music in present times if you are into a
minimalist setup or even just
experimenting with your full-blown
studio this approach to reverb will work
for you it will always have a place and
it's just organic and interesting to see
what you come up with because you'll get
all types of sounds like cars driving by
people walking and opening doors you'll
just hear things that's never gonna
happen with a controlled effects
processor it's organic to the tenth
degree and it's definitely worth a try
anyway thank you for watching if you
like to learn something today subscribe
to us here on YouTube I will catch you
on the next one in the meantime take
care of yourself peace
