[Harp-L] re Adding reverb later



Recording engineers almost always set up some reverb in the monitor mix for singers (and harp players). Puts some life and some shimmer in the sound. The reverb is not recorded--it's only in the monitor mix. Later in the mixdown the engineer adds reverb so it all meshes with the other instruments.

For things like reverb, compression, and EQ generally the engineer will do as little as possible to color the sound until mix down.

Keyboard players and guitarists always argue with the engineers--they have these fancy effects and want to use them. The engineers prefer to put the effects on later.
