19. Reverb roll-off
Applying processing to your vocal reverb and delay sends can help to give your mixes a pro edge. One great tip is to roll off high frequencies from your vocal sends using a gentle 12dB/oct low-pass filter at the frequency that your vocal de-esser is set to. This’ll stop those harsh frequencies building up excessively in the mix. Drawing for compression after your reverb or delay is also a winner if you want to give the effect a denser sound, without having to boost the feedback or reverb time too much.
