Chapter 5: D-Verb 47
Selecting Tracks for D-Verb
AudioSuite Processing
Because D-Verb adds additional material to the
end of the selected audio (a reverb tail), it is very
important that you make a selection that is ac-
tually longer than the original source material
so that D-Verb can write it into the audio file.
If you select only the original material, without
leaving additional space at the end, a reverb de-
cay that occurs after the end of the region will
be cut off.
To accommodate for this, place your region in a
track, and select the desired audio plus an
amount of blank space at the end of the region
equal to the amount of delay or reverb decay
that you have added. D-Verb will then have
space at the end of the region in which to write
the final decay.
Using D-Verb AudioSuite in Stereo
The D-Verb AudioSuite plug-in can be used in
either mono or stereo. If you plan to use it in ste-
reo, be aware of the following:
◆ If you want to process a mono track and ob-
tain a stereo result, select the desired track/re-
gion plus an empty track or region, then select
the stereo version of D-Verb from the pop-up
menu. When you process the audio, the result
will be two tracks or regions that represent the
right and left channels of the processed audio.
You should then pan these tracks hard right and
hard left in your mix.
◆ If you choose to use the D-Verb plug-in in Ste-
reo mode, and then select an odd number of
Pro Tools tracks for processing (as opposed to an
even number), D-Verb will process the selected
tracks in pairs, in stereo. However, the last odd
(unpaired) track will be processed as mono, us-
ing the left channel settings of the stereo D-Verb
plug-in. If you want the last track to be pro-
cessed in stereo, you must select an additional
track to pair it with—an empty one if necessary.
When you use D-Verb AudioSuite in Stereo
mode, a Sum Inputs button appears. Selecting
the Sum Inputs button will sum the dry input
signals (regardless of whether the input is mono
or stereo) before processing them.
The dry signal will then appear in the center of
the stereo field, and the wet, effected signal will
be output in stereo.
