6.1.3.2. Delay
A delay can increase the spaciousness of a sound without making the sound “swim” the
way some reverbs do. It can also be used as a rhythmic counterpoint to accentuate a
groove. This delay repeats the input signal and creates an “echo”, giving it more space and
depth. The Time dial offers a range of settings from 2 milliseconds to two seconds (2000
ms).
♪
: This is a modern "digital" delay that provides clear, precise echoes that are common in modern
delay effects.
The controls are:
•
Delay Time (mod param):
Sets the length of the delay. Turning the dial clockwise
increases the delay time; turning in the opposite direction shortens it. Values here
are shown in either bars or milliseconds, depending on how Sync is set (see
below).
•
Width:
This knob controls the "stereo width" of the delay. Low settings will sound
monophonic whereas high settings will have a wide, expansive stereo sound
field.
•
Ping Pong:
When activated this produces "ping-pong" delays alternating hard
panned left and right, so that they “bounce” from left to right.
•
Feedback:
Determines how much of the Delay's output is fed back into its own
inputs. Higher settings mean that more repetitions will be heard for a longer
period of time before fading out.
♪
: Setting Feedback to its maximum amount will mean that a signal is looped infinitely and never
fades out. This effectively turns the Delay into a looper! Be aware, that maximum feedback can
overdrive and distort your audio output!
