Delay on voice is very important

 At your risk.


For example.


A Woman in Love - Barbara Streisand




The Year of the Cat - Al Stewart




Listening carefully one can realize that together with the direct signal of the vocal there is a delayed in time version added.


This can be done in many ways.


An echo chamber does it automatically as it takes time for sound to travel from the speaker to the microphone inside the sound reflective room.


By the way cylindrical pipes like for example drain pipes standing on floor can make the reverberation sweeter possibly due to diffusion scattering of the ways. If memory is correct having seen photos on the Abbey Road book, the echo chamber i think has such or similar scattering structures.
