i usually use stereo delay yes. depends on the source though. a wide source sound could have mono delay to avoid interaction and oposite, a mono source could have stereo delay. depends really on what i wont but i try to keep as few stuff as possible in wide stereo lately. makes the mixdown easier and the few elements that actually is stereo will then sound more interesting. i do however usually have hihats on both L and R.

I mean like your reverbs on return tracks that you send your individual tracks to (forget about deleys), panning the whole reverb channel to one side slightly.

then i would need two reverbs, one for left and one for right, otherwise the master will be unbalanced. its my only rule, have just as much total "sound" on both channels. measured (both master levels should be the same) and experienced through listening. its a fucked up advice panning the reverb. i believe its out of context somehow. it could make sense if the source instrument is on right, and the reverb on left but i wouldnt use auxes for that as it is supposed to only be on that one sound.

I've never heard of this method but if you need space in the mix then put an eq after the verb and cut away the lows.

jimmy hendrix did it though. so if you want to sound like him then go for it.

Well thats what I always do, I'd never heard of people doing this before, thats why I asked the question to see what others think or do.

and what do you do when you have multiple reverbs ?

panning reverbs is cool but don't forget to check how will it sound in mono some stuff can completely disappear. I do agree that it does create space for percussion if used in moderation

I can't remember the last time I tried this. If it's only mild panning then it should work fine. It shouldn't be massively different to having them both centred.

I'll find out the night, guna give it a go

it's not a bad idea when using short reverbs for a typically vintage sound on funk guitars for example.

If you want more examples of those applications, you can instead buy and listen to the best production ever for me:
