Adding some subtle dimension to your synthesized instruments with early reflections.

Synthesized instruments, unlike recorded sounds, have never existed in the acoustic world. This means that these synthesized sounds are 100% direct signal. To add some subtle dimension to these synthesized sounds, then, we can craft some "early reflections" on these tracks.

Here, I demonstrate this concept using ChromaVerb in Logic Pro X.
