Rolling off the response below around 300 Hz, before going into the reverb, solves that problem. Producers and mix engineers often rely on this technique, so the [Abbey Road Chambers]( and [Abbey Road Plates]( plugins include bass cut EQ prior to entering the reverb. Vary the low-cut frequency to dial in the desired amount of tightness. [Tighten Drum Reverb with EQ] This technique works with any reverb. So, next time you’re mixing drums, don’t overlook what a low-cut filter can do to create a tighter, more defined drum sound.
