Hello everyone, I'd like to ask for your advice.
I'm having trouble improving my performance when playing Delay Control.
I have absolutely no idea how to distinguish between delays of 5ms and 90ms.
I can't grasp the timing or the characteristics of the differences in sound spread.

I can understand the difference in attack time when using compressor control, but I can't distinguish it at all with Delay Control. How do you all distinguish between them? Also, are there any training methods to help me perceive those differences?
I want to develop a precise sense of timing. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

The only advice I can give you (this worked best for me) is to set up a session in your DAW. Put a Delay effect on whatever track you like (voice, instrument, Loop), and experiment with the different settings.

Distinguishing between 5ms and 90ms is basically distinguishing between whether there is delay or not. So this is important for your ears and brain to learn. Everyone hears it and describes it differently, but I would say the 90ms delay creates a thicker wider sound, one that seems to stay a bit longer than 5ms, which is no significant delay at all. Hone your ears into that and when you can clearly tell the difference, you'll be on your way to a great journey. Then they'll ask you to tell the difference between 2ms and 7ms and, well, that's a useless skill anyway.
