As many as you like. This is where EQ comes in to make it all gel together. You use EQ to keep just a portion of each layer, then mix (or "buss") them all together to create the overall multi/combi for that musical part. You may or may not be able to do this in realtime, it depends on lots of things.

It's not conventional, I know, but personally I love adding reverb then compressing subtley afterwards. The compression release phase acts to bring up the tail end of the reverb so it all interacts and sounds big, but you have to be careful as it would be easy to overdo - less is more. I also love tape saturation. Splitting the L&R (Left & Right) signal into M&S (Middle & Side) for separate processing is interesting, too.
