DELAYS
A delay produces discrete, repeating echoes of the source material at
a specified interval. In digital delays, the input signal is "sampled" or
recorded into memory, where it is held for the amount of time you
specify with the delay time setting, after which the sample is replayed
at the output. The Studio Quad's delays have a feedback meter that is
used to send a portion of the delayed signal back to the input to be
re-recorded along with new source material. The feedback setting
determines how long the delay repeats take to decay to inaudibility.
Maximum delay times vary depending on the module Type being
used (4th, HFL, or FUL).
Stereo Delay
Quad Delay
Dual Delay
FX Lvl
Controls the signal input level fed to the Module. Varies from OFF to 100%.
Dry: Lvl
Controls the level of the dry (uneffected) signal. Ranges from OFF to 100%.
Balance
Controls the left/right positioning of the dry signal in the stereo soundfield. Varies from
-99 (all left) to 99 (all right).
FdBck
Controls the fade time of the delay repeats. Higher settings take longer to fade out, while
a setting of zero could be used to limit the delay to one repeat per voice. The delay
provide both positive and negative feedback settings. Ranges from -99% to +99%.
Delay Time
Sets the maximum delay time available to each delay voice. For example, if DELAYTIME
is set to 1000 ms, each delay voice can be set from 0 to 100% of that delay time.
Ranges from 0 to 1.4 seconds (Maximum delay times differ between 4th, HLF, and FUL
module Types.)
DlyA - B
Controls the percentage of DELAYTIME allocated to delay voices A and B. For example,
if DELAYTIME (above) is set to 1000 ms and DLYA is set to 75%, the voice A delay time
is 750 ms. Remember, each voice in the Module can have any delay time up to 100% of
DELAYTIME. Ranges from 0% to 100%.
TapIt
Allows you to change DELAYTIME in real-time by tapping the TAPIT button at the tempo
you want. Delay voice percentages do not change when using this control. This very cool
feature allows you to change the tempo of your delay pattern without recalculating each
individual tap.
DlyC - D
See Dly A - B. Ranges from 0% to 100%.
Out A - B
Adjusts the overall level of delay voice A or B. Ranges from OFF to 100%.
Out
Adjusts the overall level of the delay. Ranges from OFF to 100%.
Pan
Controls the stereo soundfield placement of the delay. Varies from -99 (all left)
to 99 (all right).
Pan A - B
Controls the placement of delay voice A or B in the stereo image. Varies from -99 (all left)
to 99 (all right).
Pan C - D
Controls the placement of delay voice C or D in the stereo image. Varies from -99 (all left)
to 99 (all right).
Out C - D
Adjusts the overall level of delay voice C or D. Ranges from OFF to 100%.
