Hi

So just like the title states. The sound I was getting originally in Real Band when I would record vocals and try to add reverb sounded like I was singing into a bucket/barrel. After watching some YouTube videos about mixing tricks, I experimented with this:

I copy and paste my vocal track into a completely new track. Then I add just reverb to that track. It seems to thicken up the track and allow me to "fade off" the reverb based on the volume setting to get the sound I want.

You can also use this track to experiment with other settings without worrying about messing it up and not being able to "undo"

It's just a suggestion, you might want to try it (your results may vary)!

Now I just have to get a handle with this "Never enough time" button...

Hey Bawb,

That's some great advice, I'm sure other users will find this helpful.

I make sure to follow that same principal of always copying stuff to a new track/file/layer/etc. when editing regardless of if I am doing audio/video/photo/etc.

Editing right on the original source is known as "destructive editing" and generally to be avoided.

Another thing I'd like to add in case it's helpful:

In RealBand, if you select Audio Effect > DirectX Audio Plugins, there is an option you can apply called PG Reverb. The controls are slightly different from the Reverb effect accessed in the Audio Effects menu, so this could be something to try out if you want to experiment with different reverb options.

if you are applying vst fx plugins then its non-destructive. you can visit the fx and cahnge the seetings, delete plugins, add new ones as you wich. they behave like otboard effects on a mixing desk. if you apply audio fx from the edit menu then you are changing the original track. they work differently.
