2. VIBROLAY

A spatial vintage style delay with triangle

wave vibrato added to the trails. Try quick
notes or chords combined with held notes.
Use the Rate and Amount knobs to add
different flavor and feel

4. SQUARE ROOT

Prepare for octave action with this
awesome square wave mod. Each note
will rhythmically jump up and down a full

octave for percussive bliss. Assign Tap

Tempo to the LFO Rate and stomp away.

Note:

If the pitch change is not quite an octave

you might need to fine tune these settings slightly.

3. STAIR STEPPER

This Ramp modulated preset will have notes

working their way through the roof. Play a
note and let the delay do the rest.
Use the Short/Long switch for even more
musical mangling.

A NOTE ABOUT TAP TEMPO

The

TAP TEMPO switch on your Analog Delay can be used to control either

the

DELAY TIME or the LFO RATE. To set a tempo, simply tap the switch

at the desired tempo, in quarter notes. After the third tap the MF-104M will
start calculating the tempo and keep the average tempo as you continue
to tap. To start over, wait five seconds and then press the

TEMPO switch

three times to set a new tempo. To revert to using the front panel control,
turn either the

TIME knob or LFO RATE knob (depending on which tempo

you are setting).

•Pressing and holding the

TAP TEMPO control for at least one second

toggles the Tap Tempo function between the

LFO RATE and DELAY TIME.

•The LED indicator for the function being controlled by Tap Tempo will
flash green and flash in sync with the chosen tempo.

SOME HELPFUL TIPS
•You can use the

DRIVE control to create some warm analog distortion of

the input if you so choose.

•By using the

TAP TEMPO control to tap very slowly or very quickly, you

can set “illegal” tempos that go outside of the designed ranges of the LFO
and BBD. Doing so creates aliasing artifacts that can sound like ring modu-
lation. It isn’t pretty but it can sound very cool. Please use judiciously.
