So I have that covered. I'll give what you suggested a whirl. When you say "parallel reverb track" are you referring to a bus? So are you an engineer?

A fair question so ,,,No, I am Not working "professional" audio engineer, if that is what you are asking? I am however a serious home recordist with 18 years experience and who has had a formal education in the form of a Masters Certificate in Advanced Audio Engineering in Pro Tools, from Berklee Collage of music A Bus ? Yes more or less. (I don't remember which DAW you are using ) And different DAWs use different wording, but ultimately they accomplish the same thing. Backing up a bit: A parallel Effect is one that is not placed directly on the audio track you are wanting to affect... The effect (in this case a reverb) is placed on its own track. And the signals from those two tracks hit the main outs in parallel The dry signal from the original audio track and a wet signal from the effects track NOW this second "parallel" track ( depending on specific DAW), may be called a Bus track, or an Aux track. ect), You then "Send" or (split off) signal from the audio track (in this case the vocal track) to the Bus /Aux, track while at the same time leaving the main output of the vocal track unchanged (technically you are doing this via a routing Bus), and I guess why some DAWs simply combine the two ( the bus and the track) and call them Bus tracks.. In Pro Tools it's called an Aux Track and a Bus is an assignable routing mechanism that can "Send " signal from the audio track to an aux track, in this case with the (reverb) on it. What this does is let the original audio pass dry (no reverb) to the main outs of that vocal track ,,,, while also sending signal over to the Aux/Bus track which passes the wet signal to its main outs. Make sense? here is a screen shot So in the magenta colored track called "Ld Vox" (for lead vocal) I am sending (black arrow) the split vocal signal (via a bus Named M7 ) to the parallel Aux track dark purple ( also named M7) to its main "input" (second black arrow) At the top of that dark purple M7 aux track you can see the highlighted "EQ3 7-Band" plug in, is first (top slot ) in the signal path and the actual Reverb (also labeled " M7") is second, so the EQ controls what frequencies are hitting the reverb which you can see on EQ GUI at the far right

I've bought most of my mics used, and in a couple cases saved quite a bit, but I'm glad there are people who buy new so I can get good deals from time to time. Always been a fan of Audio Technica microphones.
