Short delay for vocal, guitar, etc 7. Long tap delay. A nice double pitch shift is nice too to add thickening without modulation.

Multiple delay FX are very effective especially live for creating discernible spaces for different instruments. I set up templates for my studio projects and 7 is usually a minimal starting point. This is also a good example of when " less is more" can apply. After I learned to mix with 10 FX I can more effectively choose when forced to mix with less. One thing is that if the band/musicians are loose...don't have well crafted sounds or arrangements, and are not accurate players or singers I will use less as the sonic landscape can be inspiring with well crafted music, but can quickly turn to mud with less accurate playing. All said, with the X32, I am using 2 verbs, a chorus/delay for thickening and motion and a tap delay for vocals/leads. A complex rhythm delay, like a TC D2, with a good bit of feedback, and a constantly riden return DCA can really bring vocal arrangements alive and make the show sound 'larger than life.' [/QUOTE]
