Using Delays with Ryan West

Ryan has helped define the sound of a style with his work with Jay-Z, Eminem, Kid Cudi, Maroon 5, T.I, Rihanna and Kanye West amongst many others.

Delays can be a great alternative to reverb to get a modern sound without that obvious tail. Ryan's techniques use simple plugins and should be easy to understand and be immediately applicable to any style of music. You will learn about short and long delays, Slapback Delays, Delay Throws, how to create a stereo image with delays, how to treat those delays with compression, distortion, eqs and reverb for better integration and clarity in the mix.

We have an exclusive clip from one of Ryan's videos where he teaches people how to use slap delay on rap vocals to add dimension around the vocals, probably the #1 question that I've received about how to mix rap is how to get the vocals to stand out, this is the one of the tricks.
