How much reverb is too much on vocals?
It’s ok to use more than two reverbs, but try to keep the number pretty low. You can go really simple and just use one mono room reverb. I don’t recommend doing this for every mix. But it’s helpful if you want to create depth in your mix without doing much to change the overall space.
Should vocal reverb be mono or stereo?

Start by setting the HF knob to the middle; that way, you keep the bright sound neutral so that the vocals don’t sound harsh. Next, set the second knob (high-mids frequency selector) to the center. Then, set the third knob (high-mids boost/cut) to about 50%, do the same to the fifth knob (low-mids boost/cut).
How to choose the right delay time for your vocals?
Faster tempos with busy vocals will require shorter times to achieve the necessary effect without clouding the performance. The easiest way to find a good delay time is to base it on the tempo of the song.
