3 Reverb Plugin Alternatives That Pro Mixers Use

Do you find yourself constantly reaching for a reverb plugin whenever you want to add extra depth and size to your mixes?

As a result, do you rarely achieve that huge mix that you envision in your head?

No matter what reverb plugin you try out or how many different settings you dial in..

Can you not achieve the size and depth that you’re after?

I’ve definitely been there..MANY times. 

If adding more reverb to our mixes isn’t the answer…what the hell is? 

How do we add extra depth and size to dry sounding tracks without having to heavily lean on amateurish-sounding reverb plugins?

Believe it or not, most pro mixers use a lot less reverb than you’d think.  

Some pro mixers use none at all. 

How is this possible? How can we achieve a huge sounding mix with depth without using reverb at all?

With that being said, there are a few “reverb alternatives” that pro mixers commonly use.

Unfortunately people don’t talk much about them and I’m here to swoop in and show you a few that I use on nearly every mix I tackle.
