: Works well for female vocals to create a sense of space. [8] 3. Stereo Delay (Tempo Sync) Adds dimension without washing out the vocal. X32 effects presets
1.8s to 2.2s for ballads; 1.2s for faster tracks. High Cut: 4.5 kHz (rolls off harsh sibilance).

If you want to quickly copy an effect setting from one slot to another, use the Utility button while on the effects page. : Use just enough to hear it, but only if you listen for it
Use the rotary encoders to select the FX slot you want to save. Press the button on the console. Navigate to the Preset tab.

6kHz - 8kHz (removes harsh high-frequency buildup) Low Cut: 150Hz (prevents the reverb from sounding muddy) B. The "Tight Punch" (Delay)
Set up a DCA (e.g., DCA 5) to control your effects returns. This allows you to instantly mute all reverb during speaking parts without affecting the instrument mix.
