Very good

This is a very good tutorial with good audio examples. What it doesn't do (but neither does the R4 user manual unfortunately), is explain in more detail how the "Attack" and "Early" delays fit in the picture. Everybody knows the typical separation into early reflections and reverb tail, but the "Attack" page in this reverb is new to me and I don't quite understand what exactly it is and how exactly the signal is routed.

Really well done, succinct, but still detailed run through of R4 with some helpful examples. Only thing I wish, and this isn't to disparage this great video series, was that there were tips on what works well or doesn't work well in R4 for certain types of music.

covered all the features, knowledgeable tutor, comprehensive but not too lengthy, well organized

This is a great explanation of the controls within R4 with real examples. Very well done.

He does a basic once-over of everything. Quick pace, easy to follow.

What a great chance to hear a lot of variations in a reverb plugin before deciding where to spend my hard earned money. I have listened to all the Exponential Audio reverb tutorials and have really learned a lot about them. Now I could buy with confidence. Thanks Eli. And thanks Groove3.

This series gives a very good overview of the R4 and pretty much answered all of my questions about it.

This suite of videos is more than explaining how to use Exponential Audio R4, it is also coming back and illustrating in a very good way what is Reverb and how the R4 features and parameters can be used. With proper examples for each of the elements explained.
