Creating reversed sounds and effects

Another creative tool I use a lot in my own productions are reverse sounds and effects. These come in handy as many transitions, or lead ins to sounds. For example this reverse snare verb. Alright I'm going to show you how to do this reverse snare. It's actually pretty easy. What I'm going to do is duplicate the snare track by hitting command d. Next thing i am going to do is freeze the entire track. And i am going to flatten it. What this does is turn many track in to audio tracks. So I am going to rid of rest of these now and just use this one snare. Take warp off, make sure that, that attack is there. Alright, good. The next thing I'm going to do is I'm going to click on it, and I'm going to reverse it. Let me sow that. Alright, now I'm going to put a reverb on this track. Let's see what that sounds like. Next, I'm going to freeze it again. And flatten it. I'm going to take war buff, and then I'm going to hit reverse again. Hear how it sucks in like it's got a sucking in effect…
