Special Features
Windowing aka Scrolling aka Scrubbing
When
Infinite Hold
is on, the
Feedback
and
Delay Feed
parameters have no meaning
since they are effectively at 100% and 0%. However, the
Feedback
knob and CV jack have
been given a special purpose when
Infinite Hold
is on: Windowing, also known as
scrolling or scrubbing.
To use this feature, hold down the
Infinite Hold
button while turning
Feedback.
This will
cause the start and stop points of the loop to scroll forward or backwards, depending on
which way you turn
Feedback
. The amount they scroll is determined by the amount you
turn
Feedback
: one full turn of the knob equals one loop length. So if you have a 2 second loop, then turning
Feedback
from
0% to 100% will shift the loop forward by two seconds. Turning
Feedback
from 100% to 50% will scroll the loop backwards by
one second.
Note: Windowing only works when
Infinite Hold
mode is on.
Windowing Tutorial
Let's try it. First get set up: Set
Time
so you have a loop length that's about a second or so. Keep
Feedback
low to keep
things simple for now. Play some sounds for 10-20 seconds and then turn on
Infinite Hold
to lock them in.
Listen to your loop, pay attention to what sounds the loop starts with, and what sounds it plays right before it repeats. These
are your loop start and stop points. Now, we're going to change those start and stop points by Windowing:
1.
Turn
Feedback
knob all the way up (the sound will not change).
2.
Hold down
Infinite Hold
while you turn
Feedback
to 0%.
You just shifted the loop backwards by one whole loop length. Let it play for a bit as you listen to the new start and stop
points. Hear it? The loop is the same length (same timing/tempo), but now it will be playing the sounds you recorded one
second earlier. Play with this some more: Press and hold
Infinite Hold
again and turn
Feedback
back half a turn. Hear how
the loop now starts in the middle? Remember that turning
Feedback
has no effect unless you're holding down
Infinite Hold
.
This is critical for the next tip:
Tip #1:
If you want to scroll more than one loop length, do this maneuver:
1.
Turn
Feedback
to 100%.
2.
Depress
Infinite Hold
and turn
Feedback
to 0%.
3.
Release
Infinite Hold
.
4.
Repeat as needed (turn Feedback to 100%, then press Inf and turn Feedback back to 0, release Inf...)
Tip #2:
If you want to scroll back very far even more quickly than Tip #1, change the Time parameter to very long (perhaps flip
the time switch up to +16). Since turning
Feedback
+
Infinite Hold
scrolls by
one loop size
, making the loop size enormous
lets you scroll by enormous amounts with just one knob twist! You can scroll back a maximum of 2 minutes 54 seconds.
Tip #3:
Set Time to a very short period and window around a loop with CV for a sort of granular effect.
Using CV with Windowing
The Feedback CV jack also allows you to window using external CV control. To enable the CV jack, you must first manually
hold down
Infinite Hold
and turn
Feedback
, even just a small amount. The
Feedback
CV jack will now control the window.
If you turn the
Feedback
knob at any time without holding down
Infinite Hold
, the
Feedback
CV jack will no longer control
the window.
Unquantized Time Mode
and 1V/oct CV
Both channels of the DLD are always linked to a common time base. Normally the
Time
knob and CV are quantized to integer amounts (1-16), and simple fractions (1 – 1/16). This is
called
Quantized Time Mode
, and is the default mode. It's possible to change to
Unquantized
Time Mode
, where the knob and CV provide continuous control of the Time parameter (not
quantized to integer or simple fractional amounts)
To change modes is simple:
•
Unquantized Time Mode:
Turn
Time
knob
while
holding down the
Infinite Hold
button
•
Quantized Time Mode:
Turn
Time
knob
without
holding down the
Infinite Hold
button
In
Unquantized
mode, the
Time
knob behaves as usual, except it does not snap to the whole numbers between 1 and 16. So
you can sweep a slowly changing tempo, or set an exact tempo in between two integer amounts. To adjust the
Time
knob in
Unquantized
mode, hold down the
Infinite Hold
button down while you turn the
Time
knob.
The
Time
CV
jack behaves differently in
Unquantized
mode: It responds over a 1V/octave curve for positive CV (5 octave
range). Applying up to +5V will multiply the
Time
knob's setting in an exponential curve relative to the voltage. That is, for
every additional volt on the CV jack, the Time period will halve. This is the opposite response as
Quantized
mode, where
additional voltage makes the period increase. The 1V/octave response in
Unquantized
mode is very useful for resonant
delays.
Note that if the Time switch is up, the 1V/oct response will be altered by the addition of the extra 16 bars. For a true 1V/oct
response, keep the Time switch centered or down. You also can adjust the exact 1V/oct tracking in System Settings.
