ECHO, DELAY and REVERB

VA - Echoes of Rock and Delayed Reverberations Vol. 01 (A Butterboy Compilation) CD1+CD2+CD3

Rock music has always been a genre that embraces experimentation and innovation. Among the many techniques that have been used to shape its sound, the use of delay, echo, and reverb effects stand out for their ability to add depth, space, and dimension to the music.

Delay is a time-based effect that takes an audio signal and repeats it after a set amount of time. This can create a rhythmic pattern or a thickening of the sound, adding a sense of movement and dynamism to the music. In rock music, delay can be used to create a wall of sound effect, where the guitar or vocals seem to be coming from all directions.

Echo, a specific type of delay, replicates the sound with a significant amount of time between the original sound and its repetition, mimicking the natural phenomenon of an echo. This can create a sense of space and distance, as if the music is being played in a large hall or canyon. In rock music, echo can add a sense of grandeur and epic scale to the music.

Reverb, on the other hand, simulates the natural reflections of sound in a physical space. It can make an instrument or voice sound as if it’s in a small room, a large hall, or even a cathedral. The use of reverb in rock music can create a sense of depth and space, making the music sound bigger and more expansive.

These effects have had a profound impact on the sound of rock music. They have allowed musicians to create a sense of space and depth in their recordings, to experiment with sound in new and innovative ways, and to convey emotions and moods that would be difficult to express through the music alone. The use of delay, echo, and reverb has become a defining characteristic of rock music, contributing to its richness, diversity, and enduring appeal.

Presented here on Volume one is 57 distinct tracks, each echoing with individuality and diversity, masterfully crafted using Delay, Echo, and Reverb effects. From the first record in history to use artificial reverb, Harmonicats "Peg O' My Heart" through to today effects influenced bands, enjoy this sonic journey! (B)

  2. This is cool (cool, cool, cool). I'm hoping the kings of echo and reverb end up on a future volume...King Tubby, Scientist, Lee Perry, Prince Jammy, Mad Professor, Adrian Sherwood etc
