Interface (cont.)

Index

: The amount of LFO sent to the delay lines that make

up the effect. This is a bipolar control: in the center the LFO
is disabled; to the left, the LFO modulates the delay lines
randomly. To the right, the LFO modulates the delay lines
with a sine wave.

Size

: The delay time. When unclocked, it sets times from

comb-like bursts at the left to long, lush delays at the right.
When clocked, it selects from the following clock divisions/
multiplications: 1/2, 5/8, 3/4, 7/8, 1/1, 15/4, 3/2, 7/4, 2/1

Dense

: The spacing of the delay lines. To the left, the effect

sounds like a delay, to the right the delays are smeared into
reverb.

Tap

: Tap tempo. Tap in your desired clock rate, or use an

external clock. Holding down this button for about two
seconds exits clocked mode and returns to free-running
mode.

LIM/DST/SHM

: Atmosphere style.

LIM

(Limit): A clean atmosphere, using limiting to contain

feedback.

DST

(Distort): Instead of using limiting, clipping is used to limit feedback creating a

more distorted tail.

SHM

(Shimmer): A demonic pitch-shifting algorithm. Adds a one-octave pitch shift

that feeds back into the input.

L/C/R

: Reflection structure: Changes how the delay lines connect with each other.

In L/In R

: Audio input. If R is not patched, the signal from L is normaled to both inputs.

Out L/Out R

: Stereo output pair.
