- Reverb adds space; delay adds rhythmic echoes—balance both to avoid muddiness.
- Filter reverb’s lows/highs, use short decay/pre-delay for clarity, and match type to each element.
- Sync delay to tempo, keep feedback low, and focus it on key parts like vocals or solos.
- Layer delay (for depth) and reverb (for space); automate and sidechain for clarity.
- Check mixes in mono and across devices to ensure effects don’t clutter.
- Use sends for control, and A/B test for balance.
- Key point: Less is more—subtle, intentional use keeps your mix clear and spacious.
