Artificial reverberation is added to sound signals requiring additional reverberation for optimum listening enjoyment. This paper describes methods for generating, by purely electronic means, an artificial reverberation which is indistinguishable from the natural reverberation of real rooms. This artificial reverberation can be given any desired characteristics to match different types of music and personal tastes. A method for making the artificial reverberation -ambiophonic- (i.e. , three-dimensional) is also described.

This was really the first paper ever written that solidly explained artificial reverb. It's aimed mostly at reverberation for hall enhancement, but everything in it applies also to artificial reverberation for recording and audio processing as well. It explains what is important and what is not and shows some typical flow charts of systems which later could be implemented digitally. This paper describes what is needed, and then later papers describe how to implement that. But this is really where it began, even though artificial echo and reverberation systems had existed before, because it makes the first attempt of setting a mark for a natural-sounding effect.
