Several posters have suggested that a few good reverbs would be very
helpful. The more I work with this, the more I think that this really is
not true.
As one person who stated this please let me clarify that
point... what I really meant was that instead of a non-engineer
being utterly confused by a complex set of options and therefor
no hope of getting a "good" reverb out of some sophisticated
tool that it would be better in 90% of usage cases that a
simple set of reliable but convincing presets would be more
useful... in the case of a non-engineer using the interface.
I believe that the current interface is useable by
anyone
who has ever solved an ODE or PDE.
Your statement above condemns me to never being able to use
your software because I have zero idea what the above means
and if I need to before I can use your software then there
is no hope for me. OTOH if your software interface had a dozen
presets for "best of" or "most obvious" reverb settings then
I could get a feel for what your software can do and overtime
get more deeply involved. But that's life, you don't owe me
any presets.
I only refer to "me" as an example of a non-engineer who would
rather spend his time making music than being endlessly
distracted by the associated technology. Sigh, if only I could
swallow my pride and run windows I would be a happy luser.
