Here is a free Lynda.Com video, from the course "Foundations of Audio: Delay and Modulation" Automating delays and other effects can often be one of the telling differences between a "pro" sounding mix and an amateur mix. The technique he teaches in this video will change the way you use delay on your vocals. It's a tried and true technique and can be put to good use in any style of music, or mix.
Lynda,Com courses are truly awesome and a fantastic deal for the money. All those who know me, know I am a huge fan of Lynda.Com. Anyways, check out this free clip and let me know what you think.
