Curious to know what techniques, tools, and/or concepts you all use to emulate acoustic spaces in your music productions. I am particularly interested in eco acoustics and how to re-create them with electronic instruments and effects.

Personally it’s convolution all day long

Same here! And field recordings through resonators. Would love some other ideas and techniques though!

Have you tried field recordings as modulators (FM/AM/PWM/FOLD? Also spectral transfer? Fumana, Bark filter kind of thing, can work really well? Another one I like is take a VCO or sound source, turn the pitch down, add noise to the FM and a field recording to 1/v, can get really interesting noise oscillator stuff there. Can also work great if you get like a filter with a bit of W and do the same to it’s frequency cutoff….

Sounds interesting! Care to explain your method:)

Love this! Gonna try it out. Thanks @Glamaig
@fellowfinch Super simple: just running a stereo field recording through something like a Meng Qi Wingie2 or a Mutable Instruments Rings. I prefer the former since it’s fully stereo and it’s got a tiny, two octave, keyboard that can be used simultaneously to control the pitch on each side of the stereo field. With Rings I mostly use it with noise to create more bowed-type sounds. I hope that makes sense! I can create a video if you’d like!

Using snippets (1-3 seconds) of sound or music as a convolution reverb impulse response is a kind of hybrid of the two techniques. Pitch shift the impulse response to ‘play’ different notes.
