    That was one of the most engaging videos on a subject so tedious. Awesome vocals went from dry which were very good to practically impossible to tell apart. The only thing I could hear was the tail on the stereo delay was a bit longer and decay lower it seemed than the original but whatever simply amazing!

    Another good trick I saw is a method to ensure that your reverb doesn't wash out the vocals. You sidechain the wet vocal signal with the dry vocal signal. What this does is when the dry vocal is playing it compresses the reverb, but as the dry vocal fades out, the reverb volume increases. This makes your vocals both present and clear, yet still retaining all that lush reverb. Just something to try.

      @Logan Bolton It's very common practice with EDM stuff to do that with delays and longer reverbs, yeah... It can be used more subtly as a mixing thing or more directly as a substitute for automation.

    Hey man, thanks for the video. Really informative! Just wanted to let you know that when you're talking about the USB Focusrite by Scarlett... that's an Audio Interface, not a pre-amp. It has a pre-amp build in (that's what the 48V are for) but when you talk about preamps, those are external pre-amps. To give an example: Neve 1073, that's a famous pre-amp which looks similar to an audio interface, but it's not the same. After connectic your microphone to an external pre-amp you still need it to go trough an Audio Interface like your Scarlett Focusrite to work on your computer. Much love :)
