I almost always use delay on vocal tracks.
What am I doing wrong, I ALWAYS use echo/delay on my vocals. And a huge amount of doubling, created by TC-Helicon VL3 ext.
Don't know, I haven't heard any of your mixes
The nice thing about delay is it can add more depth to the vocal without washing it out like reverb can, because the delay fades quite quickly compared to the reverb tails.
I use both delay and reverb, but very light on the reverb. And I don't use a huge amount of anything, if it is obviously there you are probably using too much.
