Delay Throws For Vocals (How, When and Why)

Adding delay throws to your mixing tool kit can bring variety and depth to your vocals. This video explains the basics behind the how’s, what’s, why’s, and maybe’s of creating and using delay throws on vocals.
Today, I used Soundtoys Echoboy: www.soundtoys.com/product/ech... but another great delay plugin is Waves H-Delay: waves.alzt.net/AWOJ5o or stick with your stock DAW delay plugin.

Do you have any favourite vocal effects to share in the comments?

[@randydaniels9218]

The addition of the reverb was the unique difference of the throw. I will be using this in the future for sure!

[@user-sq7wn7uu2o]

I like the chorus as a doubler to make a vocal thats not so strong a bit stronger and bring in some frequencies that weren't there

[@MFWhite]

This morning I was wondering where Sara had gone and here you are,good to have you back.

[@SaraCarterSimplyMixing]

Yes! Glad to be back 😀

[@amphonix_blue]

I was just wondering the same! Where have you been ? 😊

[@calib5]

Very clear, articulate and useful ! Thanks ❤

[@SaraCarterSimplyMixing]

Glad it was helpful!

[@user-dw4xq5di5l]

I Really thank you for deep tutorials!! really learn a lot from your channel! Can you make tutorials like eq and compression for brass like trumpets and tronbones or Saxs also? 🙏🙏

[@SaraCarterSimplyMixing]

Noted!

[@ratsnack9869]

Your videos have been extremely helpful, thank you! And, sidenote, I really like the ambiance of your room, it's relaxing to look at haha

[@SaraCarterSimplyMixing]

Oh thank you!

[@randydaniels9218]

Thanks for sharing your insight into delay throws. Love the distance of the repeat. Great tip!

[@SaraCarterSimplyMixing]

Glad it was helpful!

[@GuitarMan54321]

Hi Sara, Side question… would you ever do a video showing how to Mix and EQ guitar tracks in a mix that are recorded from a modeler like a Fractal? I know there are EQ issues that you know how to tame and it would help a lot of the folks like me who do use modelers to record songs.

[@bjdarl24]

Excellent tutorial

[@SaraCarterSimplyMixing]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@musicsound2683]

Brilliant educator - as usual! Thankyou Sara.

[@SaraCarterSimplyMixing]

Thank you!

[@bucurgabriel6319]

All the explanations and information are presented so clearly and in detail with a sincere and generous attitude as an invitation and encouragement dear Sara.....,,Merci de tout mon cœur"and I wish you all the best and a Happy Easter from here in Paris!🥰

[@SaraCarterSimplyMixing]

Glad it was helpful! Thank you

[@REX-007]

Thanks for the tip Sara. Initially, I was thinking the backing vocals will cover that area but it makes perfect sense on the main vocal. I'm also wondering if it'll sound good on an instrument like the Harmonica or Sax. 🫶

[@SaraCarterSimplyMixing]

You're so welcome! You can apply throws to anything, so I’d definitely give it a go

[@marcosd5756]

Hi Sara , I Llke a lot what and how do you share in your channel. I find it very easy to understand and supported on with solid concepts. I think that is a lot , on these trash tutorial era.Besides , I love the sound of your voice , its relax me in a musical way. I cant realize if your accent is more British or German , but I dont care. It could be because English isnt my native language. Any way , I wrote a lot. Thank you very much , and many grettings for you from Argentina.

[@SaraCarterSimplyMixing]

Thank you! English, definitely English!

[@fadel1254]
