DELAYS
All the delays in this group have the same basic Parameters for con-
trolling the behavior of the Module. General Parameters include
DELAY ON/OFF, DELAY LEVEL, DELAY TIME, DELAY FEEDBACK,
and DELAY REPEAT HOLD. The only differences between them lie in
the number of taps available and the total amount of delay time. The
multi-tap delays also include independent delay time controls for each
tap with a feedback control on the last tap in the series.
Each delay Module has a number that immediately follows the name.
These numbers represent, in seconds, the amount of delay time avail-
able to each Module. For example, if the Module name shown in the
display reads MONO DELAY 1.4S, you know that the Module has a
maximum of 1.4 seconds of delay time available.
The available delay time ranges are 0.4 seconds (400 milliseconds),
0.5 seconds (500 milliseconds), .8 seconds (800 milliseconds), 1.0
second (1000 milliseconds), and 1.4 seconds (1400 milliseconds).
Delay Parameters are as follows:
Delay On / Off ...............Turns the delay Module either on or off. When
Modules are turned off, their Parameters dis-
appear from the Parameter menu. To see the
Parameters, you must turn the Module on.
Delay Level ...................Controls the level of the delay Module.
Variable from 1 to 100.
Delay Time (Tap #) .......Controls the delay time of the tap indicated in
the display. If a mono delay is used, no tap
number is shown. Delay time Parameters are
editable in two different ranges to give the
most flexibility and accuracy in the least
amount of scrolling time. If you press the
