I'm getting a TC Flashback and a TC Hall of Fame mini next week. What order would you recommend? Delay into Reverb or Reverb into Delay for worship service ambient effects?
Delay before or after reverb

Re: Delay before or after reverb
I would try both ways and see what sounds best to you

Re: Delay before or after reverb
Horse sense is telling me delay should go before reverb. But the ears should decide. I don't get my Flashback for about two weeks; meanwhile my delay pedal is a Danelectro slap echo. I'll experiment tonight and see what I think.

Re: Delay before or after reverb
There's quite a lot of natural reverb happening within a church unless service is outside on the grounds. My place they add reverb on mixing desk as well, making the voice sound so unpleasant that I've got a reason to not go at times lol
Anyways, back to topic, delay before verb works for me.

My reverb pedal is after the delays. In fact, it is the last pedal on my board.

Re: Delay before or after reverb
For general use, delay into reverb. (I will even put delay before gain to simulate the echoplex into Marshall tone of many classic rock and EVH tones)
For ambient, soundscape and experimental, I do delay (short) into reverb (medium) into delay (long) into reverb (huge and washy).

Re: Delay before or after reverb
Normally I think when your delays aren't being modulated, then it doesn't make much of a difference which order they go in. For me at the moment, I use a lo-fi delay into a reverb, I want my reverberated signal to stay fairly clear so the verb goes last. With a show I played a little while back I was using a shimmer style reverb INTO the delay because the repeats of the delay caused a sort of jarring effect when they constantly hit the shimmering reverb.
Reverb last makes sense most of the time unless your reverb is heavily affected (modulation or octave/shimmer etc).

reverb last...but i don't know how it would make any difference if it was for worship. Are there different rules for that? Maybe it depends on who or what you are worshipping?
Generally i guess guitars and amps don't really care about that stuff, so...reverb last.

Re: Delay before or after reverb
on Boss multiFX units like the SE50 the reverb is last except for cab simulation. I bow to the kings of stomp. However, the Tech21 Fly Rig has reverb before delay since the verb is attached to the SansAmp section. I cannot hear any discernible difference between the SE50 and the Tech 21. perhaps a bit more definition of the delay when it comes last, but with a mix/intensity control this is moot. Do try to keep other modulation based fx before both reverb and delay.

Re: Delay before or after reverb
I prefer an amp with verb, but my main amps do not have reverb. Im still hone in the best pedal order so good question! right now I have 2 delays on my board before my reverb. (carbon copy and Digitech DL8) I like both of the delays but they sound very different, so Im running both. (not always on of course) With both on, I rarely need any reverb.. Reverb used is Holy Grail Nano..

Reverb into delay into reverb.
Well, actually, it's reverb into (a third) distortion into chorus into tremelo into delay into reverb, but you get the idea.
The traditional, safe bet would be to run the delay first.

Interesting, as a doubling/fattening effect or longer?
