Automation. That's it. Make an Aux send for any and all time based effects and then send the signal via buss to the Aux track. Now you can have exclusive control over the envelope and ect... of the effect and easily get the results your looking for.
On every plugin (at least in Pro Tool) there's an automation tab with automation options that allow control over the important aspects of that plugin.
If you already know this then disregard.
I place the Aux send right next to the track(s) I want to effect, that way I can also look at the waveform and make adjustments accordingly and then I listen to make sure.
Having your session BPM correct also helps, this way you can just sync to the host and your effect will be in time with the rhythm of the song.
Good luck.
