This video is an adaptation of a segment I did for the Home Recording Show podcast. This is a dissection of a mix I did for an acoustic song using only REAPER’s included plugins.

@reaperblog awesome video, definitely giving me something to strive for!
Nice, thanks for this. I agree Reaverberate is a pretty hard to get a decent sound out of, but I was wondering why didn’t you use ReaVerb? You can get some great sounding impulse responses for it for free.

With that said, ReaVerb probably would have worked better/easier. I just didn’t want to go the easy way.
I’ll add a ReaVerb tutorial to my to-do list.
