Chris Coady shares his unconventional technique of applying spring reverb to the bass in verses, creating a special atmosphere that subtly enhances the song's vibe without muddying the low end. This contrast between the verbby verses and tighter choruses adds dynamic interest.
For this effect, Coady uses Telefunken Echo Mixer plugin by Audiopunks and highlights its unique distortion and reverb capabilities, reminiscent of germanium transistor warmth, using it as a tone-shaping tool to add depth and character.
