This is not a coincidence-the plug-in’s default is the patch Dan uses the most, and it’s perfect for this application. You don’t want any dry signal in an effects return.Ī fresh instance on the MDR will come up set to Machine 1, program Large 1. ![]() The MDR instance will load and the DRY should be all the way to the left (fully counterclockwise) and the WET should be all the way to the right (fully clockwise). Find the return, and put the MDR into an insert slot on it. Set up a new send on the channel and turn it up to 50% for starters. To widen out the ambience of the snare, you’re going to set up another instance of the MDR, only rather than using it via a channel insert, you’re going to feed it via an effects send. This reinforces the snare’s solidity in the sound field. This will make the the wet signal mono, so even if you’ve got a stereo snare track (for some reason), the effect will be confined tightly. Turn this all the way counterclockwise to 0%. Locate the blue trimpot to the left-it’s labeled WIDTH. Press the Korneff nameplate to switch the MDR to the back side so you can tweak the circuit. It will thicken the snare up and make it last a little longer. The very short time of this patch means that it will sound more like a doubling than a discrete reverb. You want to pass all of the snare through the MDR, and then add the effect back in.Ġ3 Small Bright 0.3 Sec has a timbre similar to that of a tight drum booth or a small, highly reflective room. Set DRY all the way to the right, and bring down WET to around 2:00. Switch the MDR over to Machine 2, and bring up program 03 Small Bright 0.3 Sec. Do this by placing the MDR in an insert location, after any other processing on the channel. Start by dropping a Micro Digital Reverberator instance on the snare channel, or on the snare bus if you are combining multiple snare sources together. Think of it as drinking beer and sitting around with no exercise all day for the snare. Together, they’ll make your snare fatter and wider. ![]() One we’ll call the Fatter, the other we’ll call the Wider. ![]() What you're going to do is set up two different MDRs. His MDR snare trick is easy and gives you a lot of control over the size of the snare and how it sits in the stereo field. Not many producers/engineers have snare sounds that are considered iconic, but Dan does-search "Paramore Riot snare” on Gearspace - multiple threads come up. The other day on our Discord channel, Dan Korneff shared a snare drum trick that uses the Korneff Audio Micro Digital Reverberator.ĭan is well-known for his hard hitting, articulate drum and snare sounds.
