The course begins with a module that runs through the very basics for working with Neoverb, looking at the assistant and preset manager, as well as giving an intro to the main areas of the software. Accompanying this is a diagrammatic explanation of what constitutes reverb, to help with understanding each stage and the overall timing of reflections. Following this is a tutorial that talks through the considerations for working with Neoverb as an insert or a send, showing a few different ways for setting up parallel reverb processing in the DAW.
Once the basics are covered, there are more detailed guides to each section of the software, exploring EQ and Pre-Delay, and the numerous options available within the advanced editing panel. The last 2 modules both show complete workflows, setting up Neoverb from scratch with 2 contrasting musical sources: drums and a vocal, so students have practical examples of the kinds of custom reverb design the software is capable of.
