Something we’re always eager to underline is how the act of going outside your comfort zone, and learning to really use all those plugins on your hard drive, can result in new avenues of creative possibility.

Guided by science and illustrated with easy-to-understand practical guides, his aim is to take your array of reverb plugins into uncharted territory.
