Using surgical skills that would make Victor
Frankenstein green with envy, we have trans-
planted TC-Electronic’s popular Hall of Fame

vocal effects!

Tips and tricks for working with
the Guitar Reverb effect
► Try using same style of Reverb for both Vocal
and Guitar. This helps “glue” the two sounds
together into a shared physical space.
► Using a very obvious Reverb during a solo
section can help differentiate the solo from the
rest of the song.
► If you are playing very fast, heavy music you
may be tempted to use no Reverb at all. Typi-
cally, if you listen to a recording of this type of
guitar sound, there will be a small amount of
Reverb used. Try one of the “Cozy Corner” or
“Wool” type Reverbs for a very subtle addition
of the effect.
