mastering reverb

[stjohn]

I use master verb with rock music, particularly as I am never there to record source, so the instruments are rarely recorded and treated in a unifying way, so master verb helps to gel things together.
Most dance music is "made in in one go" and so the sound tends to be, mostly but not always, more tonally coherant.

i might have thought the opposite, in the sense that live instruments are recorded in the same space, and virtual instruments are pretty much idiosyncratically designed. i have actually tried some reverbs in mastering stages before, never with any luck. but i just put that down to inexperience on my behalf.
