Best way to suppress transients in reverb/delay

[_leras]

The obvious solution, to me, is to put a transient shaper in front of the delay. This will, of course, only work if you have the delay/reverb on a send or parallel channel.

I don't think ducking will give you the result you're after.

This is a good way.

An alternative is to duplicate the track and remove the percussiveness from the sound (esp. if it's a synth) and send that duplicated track to the delay/reverb (and not to main).

also you can use transient shaper before reverb and kill that transients by reducing "attack" parameter. I would recommend Kilohearts and Assault Audio plugins.

Yep, and I made that suggestion in the very first reply in this topic

Many ways to do it, but indeed simply using a SPL transient designer before the reverb plugin and bringing the attack down would work easily.
