k... i was always wondering how to get that "whip crack" reverse buildup technique for the snare drum, like they used in 80's rock songs. Well, after experimenting for a bit i have it pretty much down. This is has probably been discussed previously, and I'm not sure how most people have accomplished it, so i apologize in advance, but this is the most logical method I could think of:

alright, so, i get the basic idea to this, but i'm having trouble implementing it. i'm using Cubase LE. i've read that i need to reverse the audio, apply the reverb, then, reverse it back to normal. now, how exactly do you "apply" the reverb to something that's already been recorded?

This cool effect involves recording, for example, a vocal source, then processing it backwards with reverb (?), then somehow putting it all back together (?), and thats where I'm confused.

How would this be done on a Hard Disk recorder ? I do have a sampler too...for doing the backward thing -

Any help Appreciated,
