Reverb on MIDI Track?

[Grim]

Anything besides what you would experience in a “natural” setting (like a live concert) would be regarded a “special”

To me special implies something different than you and I’m sure many others also wouldn’t regard mixing a plate reverb on vox and a room on drums as anything special.
I don’t regard “natural” as being the baseline outside of which anything else is special as I think modern multitrack production is inherently anything but natural. (Not that you can’t achieve a natural sounding result!)

I’m sure there is no great gap in our thinking here…just in the definitions we’re placing on things.

Bingo. That clears it up once and for all now for me. There are so many places to look (like those confusing little “e” edit icons all over the place), inconsistent terminologies (track, channel…) on and on. And for awhile there I was getting reverb from nowhere thinking it was baked into the sample until I figured out it was coming from Kontakt. In any event THANKS Grim for the help !

Hey Bob, I am having the same situation where I have 1 Kontakt and 3 MIDI lanes inside it. On the 3rd MIDI lane I want to have an outside reverb. I tried to understand what clarified it for you, but I am not grasping the concept. Is there a way you can possibly help me out?
