ABSTRACT
The most underappreciated effect: stop wasting time, without delay.
Mix smart quick start: Distortion
GOALS
Different effects families live in specific delay-time windows: long, medium, and short.
Master the concept that time effects can have spectral implications.
Fit tracks into a musical groove and offer key tracks some delay-based support.
Feature a track through attention-getting slap echo, flanging, double-tracking, and chorus.
GEAR
Sources of delay include tape, analog circuits, and—mostly—digital.
Exploit the full production potential through strategic use of regeneration, a low-pass filter, polarity reverse, modulation rate, modulation depth, and modulation shape.
