pratikb Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Hi All, I use Reaper to record hower, when I record via Pod Hd500... the recorded guitar part feels like it has a lot of reverb when actually the reverb is off... The guitar part is not 'in the face' but feels like the recording is done from far ... Please help Any suggestions will be helpful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hurghanico Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Both track monitoring in the DAW and POD direct hardware monitoring are likely enabled at the same time, and DAW monitoring by its nature is plagued with latency (delay) which is out of phase with the direct signal and results as kind of a bad echo effect. The solution is to disable track monitoring in the DAW. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ All about POD HD500/X help and useful tips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pratikb Posted January 29, 2022 Author Share Posted January 29, 2022 Thank you for getting back to me. The track monitoring is disabled. https://drive.google.com/file/d/19j5-oNutBA8MWLQ8gv-tbuwQUxt7sBbq/view?usp=drivesdk The above is the WAV file I am talking about. When you listen to the recording guitar you would understand my dilemma. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hurghanico Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 As long as you do not share the audio demo you posted above in google drive (by setting the relative permissions), it will not be possible to download and listen to it. However, if DAW monitoring is disabled as you said, and no delay or reverb effects are active, the only parameter I can think of that could give a reverb-like effect is the ER (early reflections) of the cab when this is set to the maximum (or close) value, thus giving an effect similar to a room reverb. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ All about POD HD500/X help and useful tips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is no reverb effect in the POD chain it is impossible for it to come from the device. Anyway, if you want, put your patch here as an attachment so we can check it and see if we get the reverb from nowhere too, or if there is a logical reason why it is being heard. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ All about POD HD500/X help and useful tips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for looking into it Lincoln Brewster-Reaper.h5e 4.04 kB · 1 download Marshall 45-Reaper.h5e 4.04 kB · 1 download As soon as I opened your patches (without even trying them with my equipment) in the Editor I saw the reason of your dilemma: both patches include a long delay fx active in the chain. With certain settings the delay fx works as a sort of reverb. Turn off the delay fx and your patches are "reverb" free. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ All about POD HD500/X help and useful tips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pratikb Posted January 31, 2022 Author Share Posted January 31, 2022 Thank you for your reply. But shouldn't the patch be reverb free , when the purpose of the delay is 'delay' and not reverb?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverhead Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Have you tried what hurghanico suggested? Turn off the delay on your patch and see if the ‘reverb’ disappears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously if there's no active reverb in the chain, the patch is technically reverb free, but your patches contain an active delay, and generally speaking both the delay and reverb are time-based effects that add, albeit differently to each other, a sort of third dimension to the sound, a sense of space and distance. In a sense, reverb is basically made up of multiple "delays" and feedback that make the "echoes" blur together.
