Breverb2

I have been trying to use Breverb2 with the default settings, and EVERY setting creates WAY TOO MUCH reverb, no matter what I do.  I usually have to turn the wet/dry setting almost all the way down.
 
Is this typical?
 
Seems like all of the default settings creates so much reverb, I can hardly understand the music.

    It's pretty typical to have wet/dry at about 20 percent if it is being used as an insert. 
    When you have it on a bus you set it at 100 and vary the signal amount from each send.

    I use the Breverb 2 for a lot of things and usually I have the wet/dry relatively low but sometimes it still feels a bit too heavy so I'll use the REmatrix Solo in the Pro Channel for a lighter effect.  There are a lot of variations in each of the main reverb selections plus a lot of rooms and plates to choose from. I find them to be a little lighter and airier when I'm looking for more of a subtle effect.  Breverb can get a little thick even at lower mix settings.  Try it and see what you think.

    The great thing about breverb us its flexibilty You really can make it sound however you like, but you do need to spend some time getting to know it's many variables.

    Oh,
    Maybe thats how I need to approach it.  If I do it that way, then I can use the same effect setting (as though all of the instruments are in the same acoustic space) but then use the sends to adjust how much of the signal actually effects each track.
     
    I will try that and see how it goes!

    Turn down the mix ratio.  I've never meet a reverb that didn't like itself, so almost every preset requires a downshift.

    As Backwoods already said, i usually make a Reverb bus.. I tune the reverb to what i want then change the send level on the individual tracks. However, i do use breverb alot on individual tracks as well in other circumstances for more precise things. Then its all about knowing what everything does, Breverb is great because if u hold your mouse over an option it even tells u what that knob does.. its great. So i spend alot of time tuning the reverb and it doenst seem so big afterwards, but usually my wet mix on vocals is rather low
