If it were me, I'd make a new pair of rev/g in smack(), chuck the
voice to it, then unchuck it on the way out. You're making shreds
pretty fast so that may not lead to a script you can leave running for
a long time, but it'd have the desired effect.

On the other hand, if you're limited to the number of voices LiSa has
anyway, you may as well make a bank of JCRev attached to Gains with
indices that match LiSa's voice numbers, attach LiSa to all of them,
and adjust their gains in smack(). Like:

JCRev revs[yell.maxVoices()];
Gain gains[yell.maxVoices()];
for(0 => int i; i < revs.size(); i++) {
	revs[i] => gains[i] => dac;
	0 => revs[i].gain;
}
...
fun void smack() {
...
		rev_mix => revs[voice1].mix;
...
		g_gain => gains[voice1].gain;
...
		1 => revs[voice1].gain;
		yell.play(voice1, 1);
		yell.duration() => now;
		yell.play(voice1, 0);
		0 => revs[voice1].gain;
...
}

(unless I'm mistaken about how LiSa voices work! I haven't used it in
a long time..)

I'm sure it's an option on the page you get to when you submit the
