How do u add reverb to your samples?

on the mpc i sometimes have samples that dont fit right when looped and i think it might help sometimes to reverb it..anyone can help me out?

tweaking the sample with the attack and release curves might help you tighten the loop........

Or if you want a lil bit of fake reverb you can use a technique called "Release" You add release to the tail end of a sample so it doesnt stop abruptly. Heres how.

Take a sample that you want to loop. Sample it with a lil bit of extra on the end. Now go into the trim screen and loop the whole sample. Once you got your sample looped go into the program screen and adjust the decay so that when you let go of the pad it fades out instead of cutting of when you release the pad. That should smooth things out. I also use this technique with smaller chops too, I never use my pads on mono unless they are drum sounds.

If you don't know the manual can tell you how to check for the installed card as well.

If you don't have it installed then you'll have to do it outboard in your daw.

naw i goto the effects in my mpc and it says there is no effects board or something like that...where would be the best place i could i find this at?
