To get some idea of the types of sounds and effects that can be created with
the Pitch/Delay algorithm, be sure to listen to and experiment with presets
built on this algorithm. (See Chapter 5:
The Presets.)
The Pitch/Delay algorithm allows as many as six simultaneous effects in series:
long delay with infinite looping, pitch shift, EQ, stereo delay, reverb, and a
panner. Delay L can be fed back through the pitch shifter for cascade effects.
Pitch/Delay is very useful for creating complex layered effects for instruments
and vocals. For example, you can have filtered echoes, pitch shift chorusing,
enhanced stereo spread, and reverb, all at once.
A special feature of this algorithm is loop sampling. The Predelay can be used
as a loop sampler controlled by Predelay Feedback. Any Pitch/Delay setup can
use the loop sampling feature. Choose a length for Predelay, and set Predelay
Feedback to 100% to start recirculation and lock out further input. To precisely
cue the end of the loop, set the Mix control to 0% and listen to the input. Once
the loop is captured, experiment with changing Predelay to shorten it, or Interval
to change its pitch.
