Ping Pong
This effect is the same as stereo delay, with
the exception that the left feedback is directed to
the right delay input, and the right feedback is
directed to the left delay input. In this way, the
delayed signal (echo) bounces back and forth
between the left and right channels.
Chorus
The chorus effect generates a mono or stereo
simulated chorus of voices. It has the following
controls:
Depth: This adjusts the depth of the chorus
modulation for all the voices. It is calibrated in
milliseconds (ms), with a range from 0 ms to 10.0 ms.
Delay: This adjusts the amount of time
between the original signal and all the generated
chorus voices. It is calibrated in milliseconds (ms),
with a range from 0 ms to 100 ms.
Thicken: This defines the number of delay taps
used to generate the chorus effect, and how they
are distributed across the left and right channels.
There are four settings:
0 = one mono voice
1 = one stereo voice
2 = two stereo voices
3 = three stereo voices
Speed: This controls the rate of the chorus
modulation, and applies to all voices. It is cali-
brated in Hertz (Hz), with a range from 0.05 Hz to
5.00 Hz.
Waveform: This defines the waveform that is
used for modulating the voices. There are three
settings, including sine, triangle, and random. The
random setting applies random sine/triangle
waveforms to each voice independently.
The Digital 8•Bus also comes with a library of
effects settings (patches) stored on the hard drive
that can be readily selected. Click in the preset
title box at the bottom of the Mackie Effects
window to select from the list of Factory Presets
in the dropdown box. You can also create and save
your own effects (click the MENU button and
select “Save User Preset As...”).
