Hi U-he and team

Could you please tell me if it's possible to "duck" the reverb return signal?

So far I figured you can put a filter after the reverb and use the envelope to trigger the ducking.

Is there a way to do this with just pure gain reduction?

A full reading of the manual will commence, this would just help me know where to start. Thanks!

You can place the reverb in fxbuss and modulate return in mod matrix.
Send can be modulated with ... below, but that's not ducking?:oops:

No it's not, because you can't suddenly drop the reverb tail's gain.

Oh sorry I didn't read your post correctly. Let me have a look!

You can also use Zebrify which has an envelop follower for some interesting effects

I do it simply by placing the reverb unit on a separate output lane (send) and as that has it's own modulation slot, I use that to duck, mainly with envelopes... (they act as monophonic as I remember, not a problem tho)

Yes sends can be modified, but it's not the drastic sucking back that mod' the return gives. Too many wrong ideas in this post. lol

I think I got thrown off because I didn't realise how it worked, you have the front page which has so much going that I guess I thought that if it wasn't there you couldn't do it. The mod matrix is for all that "other" stuff "for the weirdos" hehe

Well, it depends what type of ducking you're after...

for technical reasons or artistic.

For technical I was referring basically to this:

for ducking you will have positive amounts of send and negative amounts of modulation. (reverb dry parameter usually to minimum)
