Just a small question about effects.
Say there is a vocal track and the singer wants some repeat delay effects after certain words or a guitar track with the same effect after certain chords/notes etc.
Easy enough to achieve but is it preferable to just whack a delay effect in an insert on the actual vocal track itself and automate it on and off at the correct times or set up a separate FX track to send the vocal signal to and automate the same way?
I've been doing the first option, really out of laziness since it's just small bits that need the effect but I'm just wondering what would the preference be to everyone on here.
I know there's no rules but I'm just interested.
Thanks!
