25 Prophet 12 Operation Manual Delay
Delay
The Prophet 12 has a stereo, four-tap digital delay per voice. It can be
used for simple delays or, in conjunction with modulation and short
delay times, flanging and chorus effects. Simple reverbs can be built
using different delay times and settings on the level and feedback of all
four delays. The delay time can be synced to the arpeggiator and various
modulation sources can be routed to delay panning.
The outputs of the delay are mixed back in with the synth’s left and
right channels, so the primary audio path from the filters forward is still
entirely analog.
Time: 0...255 —Sets the delay time for the selected tap, from a minimum
of 0.9556 milliseconds and a maximum of 1 second. For a complete list
of the available delay times, see Delay Times on page 52.
Sync: Off, On —Sets the delay time to a subdivision or multiple of the
BPM setting. This allows the delay to be synced to the arpeggiator and
MIDI clock. The sync settings are all based upon one beat equals one
quarter note.
When Sync is on, Delay Time displays the following values.
