Tai Chi Reverb Explained

In this Tai Chi Reverb video course, production wiz Eli Krantzberg takes a deep dive into LiquidSonics' Tai Chi reverb plug-in, overturning every stone and demonstrating the lush, organic sound with numerous examples. This plug-in is rich with features and options for nearly every reverb scenario you can think of, from pristine to dirty, and Eli will explain each and every parameter so you'll be ready to start implementing it with your very next track. These videos are meant for new Tai Chi users.

Videos

• Tai Chi Quick Start (04:48) - Take a quick tour of the highlights of this lovely, lush-sounding algorithmic reverb and learn about the basics of all the important parameters.

• Reverb Time, Predelay, Width & Reflections (06:33) - Explore these foundational parameters that shape the main overall contour and properties of your reverb.

• Density, Spread & Diffusion (03:50) - Discover how these parameters, found on the Advanced tab, affect the simulated space set by the main reverb and reflection parameter.

• Chorus (05:42) - Hear the rich, multi-layered modulation of Tai Chi?s internal delay loops in action, as they're used to create lush timing and pitch variations to the reverb tail of a synth pad.

• Dynamics (07:36) - This powerful section in Tai Chi provides access to ducking and compression controls, which can tuck the reverb under the source signal and have it bloom in the empty spaces.

• Fidelity (05:11) - Explore the Fidelity tab parameters used to degrade the audio by bit crushing either the full output of the plug-in, only the reverb tail, and/or reflections.

• EQ, Multipliers & Contouring (06:23) - See three different ways of affecting the reverb energy and length in different areas of the frequency spectrum.

• Managing Presets & More (04:20) - Learn about the A/B snapshot function, how and where to store presets, and a few useful preset-based settings.

• Putting Tai Chi to Work (07:23) - Follow along as three Tai Chi presets are tweaked in an arrangement for creative effect on an arpeggiated keyboard, synth lead, and synth bass.
