I watched this documentary randomly on amazon Prime and I recommend it!

808 is an inspirational documentary about the Roland TR 808 drum machine. Released in 1980, the defective transistors used were hard to source, and the 808 was considered a commercial failure, selling less than 12,000 units. However, its use in a number of seminal ’80s recordings gave it a lifelong after Roland stopped its production.

“It's the tale of the birth of electronic music, and how one small machine changed the musical landscape forever... by accident. It's the story of a sound that has been embraced by the world's top producers and performers and has been name-checked on a whole host of hit records. Associated with numerous musical styles crossing both time and genre, its defining sounds are as relevant now as they ever has been. It defined hip hop and modern dance culture and it's sound continues to deliver dancefloor smashing beats today.”

The Abbey Road Reverb Trick

The trick is simple:

We just need to add an EQ in front of the reverb device. Now, the whole secret to the Abbey Road Reverb Trick is the fact that they use these two filters. An high pass filter, around 600 Hz and a Low Pass filter around 10k Hz.

An EQ with an high and a low pass filter, and it really makes a difference in the way the reverb sound and the way they meld into the track.

Simple trick but very powerful in your mix! Play with the frequency to find the perfect result for your mix. you can use any EQ device.
