I believe the answer is:

tremolo

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'the reverberation effect' is the definition.
'tremolo' can be an answer for 'effect' (I have seen 'Vibrato effect ' mean 'tremolo' so perhaps 'effect' could also mean 'tremolo'). I'm unsure of the 'the reverberation' bit.

I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tremolo that I've seen before include "Vibrato effect" , "Musically shivering" , "Paganini's effect" , "Unsteady effect" , "Fluctuation in pitch" .)
