I just reached level 46 at Delay Control and I'm better than 99.9% of users at this game. Just wondering who's at higher levels? It becomes really really hard at this point!
That's impressive! I guess you this game a lot; I find it very hard. Do you like to use a specific sound? I usually use piano (short sounds with fast attacks make easier to hear the delay)
I only use electric guitar sounds for this game. I hear timbral differences due to comb filtering/phasing/haas effect, but it's not so easy cause the timbral difference at a given delay changes depending on the type of guitar sound. Overall, to my ears delays at 1-2-3 ms sound more phasey, there are more frequencies boosted and attenuated. At this point, it takes me about 30-40 minutes to move on to the next level, repeating the games continuously.
My advice for beginners: Focus on EQ training and frequency recognition. This will improve your mixes right away. From my point of view, EQ is a correction tool. Your microphone will not capture the sound the way you hear naturally because it has a frequency response curve. So EQ comes in to correct this.
