I did. My name is John though. Jimmy McCulloch is the name of my favourite guitarist.

As to your question, Blooby-In one of his videos Joe recommended using delay instead of reverb and he suggested a particular setting. He was right. Reverb can actually muddy up a vocal. Using slight and subtle delay produces a much more pleasing vocal sound, at least to my ears. Another tip I tried (not necessarily from Joe but from various tips over the years) is backing off from the mic. I used to close in about 3 inches. Now I've backed off to 5 or 6 and I started monitoring using the can on just the left ear, keeping the right ear off. The pros do it that way and it produces a better result when you can hear your voice acoustically in one ear while electronically in the other. I don't know why I never tried this before. As I said, I've known for years that this is how the pros do this. Now I know why.
