will play alongside the original and the amount of delay will be between 1 and 0. If this value is smaller than
1 the sound will fade over time. Because of this we will get the illusion of a real-life echo. From the 50s the
effect became more and more popular in mainstream music as a creative tool and artists started making
new themes with the use of delay. The original analogue delay includes a magnetic tape. They recorded the
original sound on the tape and replayed it on the original channel again and again each time a little quieter.
The tape can deform after a while and the hardware can get a little imprecise. This can cause a pitching
effect since the playback speed was not linear. The distinctive sound caused by this phenomenon became
an artistic tool. There is a tape-saturation effect which is also the product of overuse. Because of this the
tape gets noisy, the frequencies become blurry and the sound caused by this is pleasant t the human ears.
These things are distinctive to analogue delay, but our product reproduce these effects digitally.

Parameters
•
Time
: Sets the time space between each recurrence of the original signal. Do you want to hear angels
singing from the heaven or from your bathroom? You can set it with the help of this knob!
•
Feedback
: A value between 0 and 1 which multiplies the amplitude. This defines how fast the sound
will fade after the original signal. Thinner delay is more distinct and cleaner but there is always the
possibility to go thicker
•
Type
: Set the delay type between step or ms. In step mode you can set the time to 1/x bars synced
to the project bpm. You can also use triplets in this mode. In ms mode you can set the time in
milliseconds.
• The delay comes with filter automation tool with the following button and knobs. Elevate your sounds
with filters and highlight parts previously unheard.
•
Eq shape
: You can turn the automation on or off. If it’s on you can change the type of the eq between
low pass, bell and high pass...
•
Level
: Set the gain parameter of the automated filter.
•
Rate
: set the movement speed of the automated filter. On the lowest stance it will stop moving.
