Guest greenbank Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 yamaha rx5 snare 1... (source - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doktor_Avalanche - and confirmed by my ears just now). the r8 one is kinda similar though, especially if you pitch it down since it's higher and shorter. ask if ye want a pack o' rx5 samples and i can prob squeeze them on here. for reverbs (non IR verbs that is, they're always better)i haven't found anything superior to the waves ones, trueverb and Rverb but they're still not amazing. they can do passableish 80s verbs but sometimes scruffy cheap sounding reverb like freeverb2 works better for that 80s sound.

Guest Blanket Fort Collapse Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 one of the biggest things Ive thought about when I hear big sounding 80's style snares is how fucking crazy hard they are compressed AFTER reverb. the sound of the reverb being squashed and gated with the snare is what gives it that big sound, tweaking the dampening and eq character of the reverb for a bit and you can find what your looking for pretty easy Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/42127-80s-reverb/#findComment-937464 Share on other sites More sharing options...
