The SOURCE 2 parameter is used to select whether the Source 2 input will be the VOICE 2 output from the
previous effect in the signal chain or the direct signal (DIR).
The DELAY HIGH FREQUENCY DAMPING parameter controls the amount of high frequency content in
the delayed and regenerated signals. Higher amounts of damping will result in less high frequency informa-
tion in the delayed signal.
The OUTPUT LEVEL parameters determine the volume of each delayed signal relative to the other.
The PAN parameter allows you to pan the delayed signals to the left or right channel.
The DELAY TIME parameters determine the length of time (in milliseconds) after the input signal that the
delayed signal will begin. The DELAY TIME can be adjusted via the ADJUST control, MIDI controller
changes or via the Tap Delay feature. (See “Operating the Artist” for detailed descriptions of each.)
The REGENERATION parameters determine the number of times each delayed signal will repeat itself.
This is achieved by feeding the delayed output back into the input. Higher parameter settings will result in
more repeats. The displayed value represents the attenuation (in dB) that the regeneration signal is subjected
to at each repeat.

Regeneration limiting
Setting both REGEN parameters to high levels would result in louder and louder echoes until
a severe overload occurs. For this reason, the Delay function features a regeneration limiter. The
limiter senses when this condition would occur and automatically turns down both REGEN levels
to avoid such an instability. This is especially important when REGEN levels are being adjusted in
real-time via MIDI control change messages during a live performance.
The regeneration levels can be reset by recalling the preset or by accessing the REGEN 1 and
REGEN 2 parameters and turning the ADJUST control.
