Using delay effects
A delay is the repeat of a sound played back after a few milliseconds. That’s it, pretty simple, right? With a delay plugin, you can control how long to wait before hearing the echo. It can be synced with the tempo of your project.
The following terminologies are used to describe certain types of delays:
- Straight delay: Delaying the original material.
- Slapback delay: Delay times of between 70 ms and 120 ms. Generally, this complements dry sounds.
- Doubling delay: Delay times of between 20 ms and 50 ms. It creates an artificial doubling of the track.
- Ping-pong delay: Creates a call-and-response reaction between the repeats of the delay. For example, the initial call is 300 ms and the follow-up call is 600 ms.
- Stereo-widening delay: Short delays of around 10 ms. Sounds like the original sound to the listener, but spreads out more in the stereo field.
