Reverb is a hard thing to get your head around. The market is over-saturated with plugins, outboard gear even guitar pedals. This article gives tips on how to go about choosing that right reverb for your mix. But the key in this article is how much to use. I think there was enough reverb used in the 80s to go around the world for years, so be careful with not overdoing it.

Reverberation is a subtle but crucial part of any mix. The wrong choice can make everything sound harsh, messy, muddy or distant. The right choice can bind a mix together, add depth, space, and air, and enhance detail. The trick is knowing the difference.
