EFFECTS – DELAY
70
OutLev – Out Level
Range: -100 to 0dB
This parameter sets the overall Output level of this effect.
Enable
Range: Off/On
The effect’s status. All settings are stored as part of the
preset even if this particular effect is disabled.
Single Delay
The Single Delay effect is the most simple and basic
delay type in the G-System. It comprises a single delay
line with all the common parameters.
All Common Parameters
Please refer to the section “Delay – Introduction” for a
description of this Delay’s parameters.
Tape Delay
This delay simulates historical, tape-based delays,
including the clipping sound that occurs when the
Feedback parameter is yanked past the 100% point. Try
experimenting with a high Feedback level combined with
high and low cut filters.
In addition to the “common” parameters described in
the introduction of the delay section, this delay has
the following parameters:
Drive
Range: 0 to 24dB
Use this parameter to simulate the slight deterioration of
the delay repeats due to clipping, which – in addition to
the loss of high-end frequencies – used to be one of the
main characteristics of historical tape delays.
Reverse
The Reverse delay is a great effect when a more
mysterious, exotic delay style is required. Use the
Feedback Hi-Cut parameter to soften the delay.
All Common Parameters
Please refer to the section “Delay – Introduction” for a
description of this Delay’s parameters.
The range of the Delay time for this delay type is 50ms
to 800ms.
Lo-Fi
The Lo-Fi Delay will make your delays stand out. Try
experimenting with the “Drive” parameter as well as the
Feedback LoCut and Hi-Cut parameters to tailor the Lo-
Fi sound to your exact needs.
In addition to the “common” parameters described in
the introduction of the delay section, this delay has
the following parameters:
Drive
Range: 0 to 24dB
The higher you set the Drive parameter, the more
distorted the repeats become. The “drive” simulated by
this effect has a very “analog” feel.
Ping Pong
The Ping Pong delay causes the delay to alternate
between the left and right channels, resulting a very nice
stereo feel. Use the Width parameter to determine how
“stereo” you want this effect to be.
In addition to the “common” parameters described in
the introduction of the delay section, this delay has
the following parameters:
Width
Range: 0 to 100%
The Width parameter determines how far the left and
right repetitions should spread from the center.
