Reverb send on snare and toms

only 1-5%? but your vocals sound so wet and wiiiidddeeee. Maybe that has something to do with the multiple takes. What reverb do you happen to be using?

It's most likely multiple takes and delay you are hearing. He said he is using the Roomworks reverb, at least this was the case in 2010, could be different now.

for the record, i almost never use fx sends. just plop the reverb right on the track.

its good to know i'm not the only one who does this, i feel i have more control over the desired effect this way.

I send all vocals to a verb and delay bus. Set the send level to unity, on the verb bus for example, keep it 100% wet and user the fader on the verb bus to blend it in

^Interesting. Never expected to hear that.

I too put reverb on individual tracks a lot too. But sometimes I will bus the kick snare and toms to a reverb aux just to give it a really large sound for a certain section in a song. Nowadays that I have more inputs I will just record a room mic too and that usually does the trick for some big roomy sounds as well.
