Description: This course will help you build your understanding of delay, or reinforce what you already know about it. We’ll take you from a brief history of the effect to the physics behind it, all the way to advanced techniques that can be used to take your mix from good to great.
Delay is quite possibly the most widely used, yet misunderstood, creative tool in a mixing engineer’s arsenal. Every major album you’ve heard in the last 40-60 years has featured some instance of delay. Starting with a brief explanation of the history of delay, along with some basic functions, all the way to advanced technology, and a primer on the physics behind the instrument, in this class you’ll learn everything you need to know about the delay instrument.
We’ll focus on common applications of delay instruments found in modern music, as well as some techniques to help emulate a vintage sound in your mix! We’ll also cover how to set up your delay on any instrument and explain why the order of operation is important. We’ll spend most of this course exploring technique, as this depends on the instrument’s application, but we’ll also touch on some effects, such as flangers and choruses, that can be created using the delay instrument with some post-processing. This course will help you build an understanding of delay, or reinforce what you may already know about it. We’ll guide you from a brief history of the effect to the physics behind it, all the way to advanced techniques that can be used to bring your mix from good to great.

Beginning at an explanation of the brief history of Delay along with some basic functions, all the way to advanced techniques as well as a primer of the physics behind the tool, in this class you’ll learn everything you need to know about the Delay tool.
We’ll be focusing on common applications of the Delay tool, found in contemporary music, as well as some techniques to help simulate a vintage sound in your mix! We’ll also go through how to setup your Delay on any instrument and explain why the order of operation is important. We’ll spend the majority of this course examining techniques, since this is an application dependent tool, but we’ll also touch on some effects like Flangers and Choruses, that can be made using a Delay tool with some post-processing.
In this class you’ll learn…
Digital Delay use. Analog Delay functionality. Creating depth in a 2-Dimensional plane. Simulating a doubled track. Different models of Delay. Physics of Sound Waves. Differentiation of Reverb and Delay. How to set up Delay.
What to listen for when using a Delay on:
Drums. Guitars (lead and rhythm). Piano. Vocals (lead, backgrounds, harmonies).
You’ll also learn advanced techniques like…
Throwing Delay using Automation. Artificial Stereo Spread. Acoustic environment simulation. Embellishment of an element within a mix.
