The Effects

Ten Tap Delay
The Ten Tap Delay is a special kind of delay that allows you to precisely control the repeats. It is
implemented essentially as 10 delays in series. You can control the exact number of repeats, up to
10, along with the decay, level and panning.
MONO / STEREO -
Sets the mode of the Ten-Tap Delay. In mono mode twice as much delay per
tap is possible.
DELAY TIME -
Sets the delay time per tap.
DELAY TEMPO -
Sets the delay tempo per tap. This overrides the delay time parameter.
NUMBER OF TAPS -
Sets the exact number of repeats.
DECAY -
Sets how rapidly the repeats decay. A value of zero will have no decay and all repeats will
be at the same volume.
SHUFFLE -
Sets the amount of time offset for the odd taps to give a shuffle feel to the repeats.
SPREAD -
In stereo mode sets the spread of the repeats. At maximum the left channel is panned
full left and the right channel full right.
RATIO -
Sets the ratio of the left delay time to the right in stereo mode.
PAN SHAPE -
Controls the shape of the panning as a function of tap number. The repeats can
slowly move from one side to the other (increasing / decreasing) stay constant, or move back and
forth (sine).
PAN ALPHA -
Controls how quickly the repeats move as a function of tap number and pan shape.
Higher values produce a more pronounced effect. To alternate left-right set the
PAN SHAPE
to
SINE
and the
PAN ALPHA
to maximum.
LOW CUT -
Sets the cutoff point of the highpass filter. Higher values reduce the amount of low
frequencies per repeat.
HIGH CUT -
Sets the cutoff point of the lowpass filter. Higher values reduce the amount of high
frequencies per repeat.
TAPn LEVEL -
Sets the relative level of the repeat.
Rhythm Tap Delay
The Rhythm Tap Delay uses basically the same algorithm as the Ten Tap Delay but allows you to
enter the exact rhythm of the repeats. You can enter the rhythm either manually or by tapping the
rhythm in with the
ENTER
button.
The parameters for the Rhythm Tap Delay include most of the Ten Tap Delay parameters listed
above plus the following:
