Week 6 EOC: Photo challenge
"Reverberation is the persistence of sound in a particular space after the original sound is produced A reverberation, or reverb, is created when a sound is produced in an enclosed space causing a large number of echoes to build up and then slowly decay as the sound is absorbed by the walls and air.This is most noticeable when the sound source stops but the reflections continue, decreasing in amplitude,
until they can no longer be heard. The length of this sound decay, or
reverberation time, receives special consideration in the architectural
design of large chambers, which need to have specific reverberation
times to achieve optimum performance for their intended activity.
In comparison to a distinct echo that is 50 to 100 ms after the initial
sound, reverberation is many thousands of echoes that arrive in very
quick succession (.01 – 1 ms between echoes). As time passes, the volume
of the many echoes is reduced until the echoes cannot be heard at all." I pride myself in the manipulation of reverb. So much so that I was given the nickname G-Verb. Many projects I have done have been laced with reverb. I can make someone who records in a studio sound like they are in an area in front of thousands!
