Note:
The maximum delay time is 1 second. The combination of longer
synced delay times with slower tempos can result in delay times that would
be greater than 1 second. When that happens, the delay time is divided by
2 until it no longer exceeds the 1 second limit. For example, if the BPM is
set to 60 and Delay Time is set to Half, the expected delay time would be 2
seconds. The actual delay time will be 1 second (2 seconds divided by 2).
LP/HP Freq: 0…127
—Sets the cutoff frequency of the lowpass or highpass
filter in the output/feedback path. A lowpass setting of 127 results in no filter-
ing. The highpass filter works just the opposite, where a setting of 127 equals
maximum filtering.
Mode: Lowpass, Highpass
—Selects either a lowpass or highpass filter in the
output/feedback path. Use the lowpass filter to create natural sounding echoes
and analog tape echo effects. The highpass filter can create interesting flange
effects and unnatural sounding echoes.
Delay Pan: 0…127
—Allows you to pan the output of the delay anywhere in
the stereo field. This is very useful in creating a rich stereo image as well as for
ping-pong effects.
Delay Pan is also a modulation destination. That is, the stereo pan position of the
delayed signal can be modulated using an LFO or any mod source in the modula-
tion matrix.
