Using the Effects
DELAY
fig.0170
This effect adds delayed sound to the direct sound, giving
more body to the sound or creating special effects.
DELAY pedal
The Delay is switched on or off each time you press the
pedal. When switched on, the DELAY indicator and pedal
indicator light up.
* DELAY ON/OFF switches the Delay at the input to provide a
more natural effect. For this reason, if the FEEDBACK is
turned up when the Delay is turned off, the delay sound will
remain briefly.
TYPE knob
Sets the type of the delay
* When a setting other than HOLD is selected, you can use the
DELAY pedal to input the tempo, and set the delay time
synchronized to the performance tempo.

“Adding Synchronized Delay to the Performance Tempo”
(p. 16)
0-30 ms
Delay sound of 0 to 30 ms delay time.
25-125 ms
Delay sound of 25 to 125 ms delay time.
100-500 ms
Delay sound of 100 to 500 ms delay time.
400-2000 ms
Delay sound of 400 to 2000 ms delay time.
ANALOG
This gives a mild analog delay sound. The delay time can be
set within the range of 100 ms to 500 ms.
SLOW ECHO
This produces an effect combining a volume-swell sound
with delay. The delay time can be set within the range of 200
ms to 1000 ms.
PAN
A panned delay in which the repeated sounds come
alternately from the left and right channels. The delay time
can be set within the range of 200 ms to 1000 ms.
* When using the ME-50 in mono, the panning delay is not
effective, even when PAN is selected.
SPACE PAN
This is a panning delay that gives an even wider spatial effect
than PAN. The delay time can be set within the range of 200
ms to 1000 ms.
* When using the ME-50 in mono, or when using headphones,
the panning delay is not effective, even when SPACE PAN is
selected.
REVERSE
This produces an effect where the sound is played back in
reverse.
You can get two different effects, “direct sound + effect
sound,” or “effect sound only,” depending on the position of
the E.LEVEL knob. When the E.LEVEL knob is turned up to
MAX, the unit switches to “effect sound only.”
The delay time can be set within the range of 400 ms to 2000
ms.
