you could also try reversing the polarity on your mains cable,, this may force live to run backwards,,,














This was a joke,,,, :?

double click your sample so you get the clip shit at the bottem, at the left side there should be a button with "REV" on it, click that, it reverses your sample.

now ad a return track with reverb, and route it to a different audio track, play the reversed clip and record the reverb on to the other track, flip every thing back round, and there you go...

any clearer details needed just ask :D

There are ways to get a similar effect on live material without "pre-computing" the reverse reverb: one thing I've done is use a reverb with a long decay time (8-15 secs) and use clip automation to make the reverb volume crescendo. (You can do weird "percussive-verb" things this way, too, with more spastic volume envelopes.)

by "flip everything back around" he means hit the the "REV" button again.

now there shouldn't be anymore clarifying questions :D

If you have either Altiverb or Guitar rig 2, you can create it with those two (in real-time).

Altiverb has a button for this and with Guitar Rig 2 you can route your audio through it and add only Psycho-delay -effect: it has a reverse-button too.
