EFFECTS 101: Reverb

All about reverb pedals with Johnny DeMarco: how they work and how to dial in the right sound for stage or recording.

Very well explained. What I like most - he explains the nature of the effect and it's influence on the guitar's sound. Uses simple methods - speaks about how it works, how to use it. He shows clear, noticeable differences between each knob purpose. Short, solid, great video.

Intentionally pause at 0:06 just to see his straight face.

Deeply grateful for your tutorial. The explanation was extensive and thorough. As a beginner, I want to make sure my money is well spent and that requires being well-informed. Looking fwd to your other videos.

Now I understand why I like “slowed & reverb” versions so much 😂 That effect truly something cozy…

[jalengoode]

Finally someone actually explains it!
Also I love that he played things that would bring out the specific type of reverb he was talking about

[waynemutai]

Now this is the type of breakdown I was looking for! Thank you!!

[GothicDragonX]

I can listen to "Example 2" for days, or week. Love it.

His voice is more soothing than a violin.

[alexmurphy]

Thank you for the simple yet thorough explanation. Really well done!

[noizy]

I fucking love your videos, you explain everything so well, even the basic things. No bullshit just straight to the point and everything makes sense. Please keep up what you are doing.

[masterdouglas]

You can make fun all you want, but he has taught me a ton. Thanks for the videos, Johnny!

[orcapodmedia]

Plays everything with absolute passion.

[indgiu]

these videos explain it better than I can. I would say that reverb simulates how sound bounces off walls in a big room, which causes sounds to persist a little longer than you would perceive without reverb. Delay instead is like an echo, a subtle repetition of sound. You can have both effects simultaneously.

[michaelsantos]

3:30 what song is that? And 3:47 what do you call that muted technique?

[fra]

@rolandmedia could you tell me which song are the ones you played from 2:25 to 2:58 ?

I love Johnny DeMarco's style, he is so interesting to listen to.
