No. Never reverb anything. Reverb is for twats.

depends on the tune and the snare I'm using sometimes it has a nice sound to it without reverb but I'd say like 75% of the time, yes.

i love grating eighties style digital reverb and delay on snares

really clipped, grainy and peaked in the 4-6khz range

sounds so artificial and un-real
(think roxy music or phil collins)

AWESOME

Reverb is an essential tool to give every sound the right place in the mix.

yes but only auxed... usually a big verb and a wee bita delay panned apart. but v subtle

recenty as i finish a tune, i'm turning down the bus/aux levels a wee bit [spesh if there's more than one channel going into it] as it keeps the track tidier and i think after long hours of mixing ur ears can become too accustomed to things like reverb [also you begin lossing top end but that's a dif story]

only use reverb with a send so the origanl snare wont be effected... after all the reverb makes your snare inaffactive... I like it dry and snappy so it get out much louder out of the speaker.


after all... reverb is overrated in dubstep

I'm not a twat; I'm more of a tnuc. A big, glooping, moist tnuc with a radiant fragrance of cock fumes and cigarette smoke. So big that even your tiny, brittle reason preset drums sound like Phil Collins bashing a snare drum made of Michael Jackson's original skin, its got that much reverb.

Now, let me reiterate, Reverb is for twats.

all about layering the snare one with reverb and one without then adjust - makes it punchier -you seem to lose a lot of the snap effect if you over reverb i reckon
