Better Delay Feedback

In this tutorial I use a standard delay plug-in and the busses to create a more unique delay feedback than the standard feedback control usually offers. Also, automated aux sends are addressed.

The song in this video was performed, produced, and engineered by students of mine. The producer/engineers were Roger Lemmon and Stephen Findley. The performer/songwriters were Aric Neshiem and Joel Kessler.

Edit: Just noticed the weird line interference in the video. I’ll try and get that fixed for the next one.

    That is a pretty cool and creative tool. I could actually see using this as well as several of the gating examples that you talk about. Great Job on your presentation.

    Thx so much for your videos. I had wondered how to best apply an effect to a single word or phrase…thx for making this simple!

    Absolutely brilliant! This technique reminds of the vintage dub style processing heard on countless dub reggae productions.

    Thanks
