P1
Delay / Tap BPM
Once you turn
P1, the lock icon
disappears, the Multiplier number turns
white and
P1 becomes a Delay control.
Delay has a range of 1ms to 2.9 seconds,
and a track without a BPM tag will start at
500 ms. A slow turn gives 1ms adjustment
resolution, while a fast turn increases
the resolution to 200 ms per step. To get
back to the original BPM after adjusting
Delay, select a multiplier with
J1, and the
Multiplier number changes to green. A
single Tap of
P1 resyncs the delay to the
BPM.
J1
Multiplier
Pressing
J1 toggles between normal
transform operation (indicator off) and
the BPM Multiplier (green indicator on).
With the green indicator lit,
J1 adjusts
the multiplier to 4, 2, 1, 3/4, ½, 1/4, 1/8,
or 1/16. Multipliers that exceed the Delay
memory will not function and are grayed-
out in the software control panel. If BPM is
set with tapping, the multiplier is set to 1.
The multiplier is not reset when the BPM
is set via the ID3 tag, so your subsequent
tracks can stay at x4 if you wish. The
active Multiplier is shown in green text
when locked to a BPM.
P2
Feedback
Feedback is the amount of delayed signal
fed back to the delay input. Feedback
minimum to maximum is 11/3 rotations
of
P2. The Delay clears after one
circulation when Feedback is brought to
0%. The Delay clears immediately when
uninserted, but changing the insert point
does not clear the feedback loop. This
is useful for adding PGM 2 Echo to the
fading PGM 1 Echo. To clear the loop
and start a fresh Echo immediately, rapid
double-click on the insert point
B1, B2,
B3 or B4.
J2
Wet / Dry Mix
Pressing
J2 toggles between transform
operation (indicator off) and Wet / Dry
control (green indicator on). The hold echo
default is 50% Wet / 50% Dry.
J2 has the
same operation on all effects.
Desecrator Control
Assignments
The Desecrator adds controlled distortion,
from fine dust to rusty metal spikes, by
allowing adjustment of bit-depth and
sample rate without dithering or anti-
aliasing. Clipping can be a fine shave, or
enough for a wig! Signal flow and control
is shown below.

Drive Level
The only function of
P1 (indicator off) is
Drive Level, adjusting from 0 dB to +24
dB in 32 uniform steps. To keep audio
output level constant, inverse gain is
applied after the bit-depth stage. A slight
level reduction occurs when clipping.
P1
has no second function when using the
Desecrator.
J1 has no function when using the
Desecrator.
P2
Sample Rate / Bit Depth
Sample Rate is the primary function of
P2
(indicator off) adjusting the sample rate
from a clean 44.1 kHz to a dirty 34 Hz
over 32 steps with 1/3-octave spacing.
Bit Depth is adjusted with the second
function of
P2 (green indicator on) adjusts
from a creamy 24 bits to a crunchy 3 bits
in 22 steps. Increasing the
P1 Drive Level
increases the spreadability when bits are
reduced to a single digit.
J2
Wet / Dry Mix
Pressing
J2 toggles between transform
operation (indicator off) and Wet /
Dry control (green indicator on). The
desecrator default is 100% wet.
J2 has
the same operation on all effects.
