NEW Reverb in MS4!
WOW! The reverb slider is back! Except it doesn't seem to change anything yet. Am I missing something here?

Do you mean the reverb effect you can get from the Hub?. It doesn't remove reverb. It just adds more.

That's maybe a nightly-version of 4.0.x

Rather (a nightly of) 4.1.0
Yes, that's a nightly, but I'm a bit puzzled. The reverb slider is currently set to zero with some notches above and below it (like all the other sliders) . This indicates that the reverb can be either increased or decreased. I understand the increasing part, but I'm not sure about decreasing. As far as I know, all the sounds in MS4 are recorded from real instruments rather than being electronically generated. This means that they were recorded with a certain level of reverb that can't be decreased. It can only be increased. However, the slider suggests that the reverb can be decreased. How is that physically possible?

Consider this. Select a note in your score. You will not hear any reverb. But you will in playback.

– Yes, you are right! I didn't think of that. So, what we hear by selecting and clicking a note on a score is exactly how the sounds in MS4 were originally recorded then, right? And in the playback some reverb is already being added to them electronically, right?

This is still a work in progress; these nightly builds aren't intended for real work yet. The new aux send channels are present indeed but not everything is hooked up yet, The sounds were supposed recorded dry but some amount of reverb was added individually. That still hasn't been removed.

– Thank you, Marc, for this insight! I didn’t know that.
Another question occurred to me just now: if the non-reverb sound that we hear by choosing a note and clicking on it is exactly how the MS4 sounds were recorded, why is reverb added to the playback then? Why not play it back without any reverb and allow us to add reverb to each instrument ourselves through Audio FX instead? Sometimes, I do want certain instruments, especially in solo parts, to have as little reverb as possible, almost none.
