Quad Tap Delay
5.20.1
The
Quad Tap Delay
offers four “taps,” each of which extracts a signal from any point in the delay line. It is useful
for cool creative and rhythmic effects. Each tap has its own level and pan controls, plus a bandpass filter with
adjustable frequency and Q. Four feedback controls are provided, but the sum of the four feedbacks may not
exceed 100%. Notice that feedback from all four taps is summed at the input, so even if its output level is reduced
to 0%, a tap with any feedback value greater than zero will still be heard the next time another tap plays.

Parameters
TEMPO 1,2,3,4
– Sets the corresponding TIME parameter in rhythmic relation to the global tempo. For
example, if the global tempo is 120 BPM, and
TEMPO
is set to “1/4” (one echo per beat), time will be 500 ms.
To ignore the global tempo, set to “NONE.”
TIME 1,2,3,4
– Sets the time when the selected tap will be heard, from 0-2000 ms. When any
TIME
is shown
in parenthesis, it is being set automatically by the corresponding
TEMPO
parameter (see below). Set
TEMPO
to
“NONE” for manual control.
LEVEL 1,2,3,4
– Sets the level at the output of the selected tap.
PAN 1,2,3,4
– Sets the pan for the selected tap in the stereo mix.
FEEDBACK 1,2,3,4
– Sets the level of the selected tap in the overall feedback blend. Note that the sum of
the four feedback values cannot exceed 100%.
FREQ 1,2,3,4
– Sets the center frequency of the bandpass filter for the selected tap.
Q 1,2,3,4
– Sets the width of the bandpass filter for the selected tap. Higher values result in a narrower
range of frequencies passing through.
DIFFUSION
– Sets the mix level of the diffuser block that precedes the delay line. Diffusion “smears”
transients and can be used as a type of reverb for creating interesting ambience effects.
DIFFUSION TIME
– Longer times will smear transients over a longer period.
