D. HUSH; EQ; 8 VOICE CHORUS; DELAY Configuration

This configuration provides eight voices which may be chorused and/or delayed up to 1025 milliseconds each.

Please note that when the Delay Time for any voice is set to zero, that voice is removed from the regeneration

loops. This will allow for higher regeneration levels (if needed). It also allows for a more pure sounding decay of
the echo when used with other voices set at long delay times.
