When I now run it through a saturator, this adds distortions and harmonics on that sound file.Īnd here probably comes my thinking mistake: When I run my dry sound file through the same saturator with exact the same settings, distortions and harmonics are added. I have a dry audio file, when I put a linear reverb on it, I get the same audio file processed in a linear way. Here is how I imagined it, but you surely will tell me, that I am wrong about it. And I also can fully understand -and even visualize before my eyes, when I think about it-, that it makes sense, that non-linear processing as compressing for example affects the result, whether it is used before or after the reverb.īut I must admit, that I am unable to visualize the same in terms of saturation or distortion. I understand that when you use linear convolution reverb, it doesn´t make a difference whether you use linear processing as for example eq´ing before or after the reverb in the fx-chain. Here´s one more question of this kind as there´s something I do not fully understand.
