This lesson completely centered around two important effects that make the mix sound like it has space. This is reverb and delay. Both of these are recommended to be put on seperate send channels so that you have complete control over the reverb and delayed signals without affecting the dry signal. Reverb is the sound you hear when a very quick delay happens in a room based on its size, material, your location, shape, amount of walls, and flooring. Delay is like a slower version of reverb where you can hear the signal in seperate takes bouncing back at you. When used in combination you cn get a very powerful spacious sound out of your mix.
