ADJUSTING THE DELAY AND REVERB
The settings for Black Box’s beat-synced delay and reverb are accessed by pressing the DELAY button.
The delay time can be either a fixed time or it can be synced to the internal drum machine (or incoming
MIDI Clock). For a complete description, please refer to the full User Guide. Push the DELAY menu key to
bring up the following four menus:
Delay Time - This parameter value sets the time between your original signal and the delayed signal.
There are 100 fixed delay times (shown in milliseconds), followed by 19 beat-synced settings:
2M 2 measures (Uses ‘1M’ below 172 BPM, ‘2n’ below 86 BPM and ‘4n’ below 43 BPM)
2MT 2 measure triplets (3 delays in 4 measures; uses ‘1Mt’ below 115 BPM and ‘2t’ below
58 BPM)
1MD Dotted whole note (1.5 measures; uses ‘2d’ below 129 BPM and 4d below 65)
1M 1 measure (Uses ‘2n’ below 86 BPM and ‘4n’ below 43 BPM)
1MT 1 measure triplet (3 delays in 2 measures; uses ‘2t’ below 58 BPM)
2D Dotted 1⁄2 note (1/2 note + 50%; uses ‘4d’ below 65 BPM)
2N 1⁄2 note (Uses ‘4n’ below 43 BPM)
2T 1⁄2 note triplet (3 delays in 1 measure)
4D Dotted 1⁄4 note (1/4 note + 50%)
4N 1⁄4 note
4T 1⁄4 note triplet (3 delays in a 1⁄2 note)
8D Dotted 1/8 note (1/8 note + 50%)
8N 1/8 note
8T 1/8 note triplet (3 delays in a 1⁄4 note)
16D Dotted 1/16 note (1/16 note + 50%)
16N 1/16 note
16T 1/16 note triplet (3 delays in an 1/8 note)
32N 1/32 note
32T 1/32 note triplet (3 delays in a 1/16 note)
< SHIFT: To adjust Reverb Time, select Delay Time then double-tap the DELAY button. (See the
“Additional Shift Parameters” section below.) There are five Reverb times: RVTM 1 (shortest)
through RVTM 5 (longest).
Delay Repeats - This parameter value sets the amount of repeats in your delayed signal.
< SHIFT: To adjust Reverb High Frequency, select Delay Repeats then double-tap the DELAY
button. (See the “Additional Shift Parameters” section below.) The range is from RHF 0 (least
high frequencies) to RHF 99 (most high frequencies).
