76. ge tips and recommendations 17 4 3 Answers to frequently asked questions 4 3 1 Why do we recommend convolution reverb instead of release samples Multiple layers of release samples are meant to provide a more accurate model than a single release sample and indeed a much accurate result is obtained since it is obvious that a long sustained note will have a different release footprint than a short staccato note whose sustained part has not fully developed However as the number of release sample layers increase the loading and computing mixing demand also increases Multiple release sample layers even if supplied in great number will always be quantized in time i e their lengths will exactly correspond to only a few particular note durations Convolution reverberation adopting rigorously prepared and measured state of the art impulse responses provides the appropriate quantization for any length of note since the release samples will not be pre calculated but calculated as you play in real time It is also possible to use release samples and convolution reverb at the same time when the release samples are used only for reproducing the valve closing sound in the case of smaller instruments or ranks producing audible valve related sounds or when the sample set is relatively dry On the other hand convolution is not just capable of reverberation but of filtering as well so the swellboxes can be also replaced with more accurate
