Erica Synths SYNTRX II, Руководство пользователя

Страница: 11 / 27

The SYNTRX II has great-sounding DELAY and REVERBERATION effects,
developed in collaboration with www.112db.com. The switch allows for selecting
between the effects, while the TIME knob adjusts the delay time (3ms – 5 seconds)
for the delay effect or room size for the reverberation effect. The FEEDBACK knob
sets the number of repeats for the delay effect (it goes into self-oscillation with high
feedback settings) and applies feedback for the reverb. With the feedback knob all
the way clockwise the reverb starts looping and you can use it as a drone source
with adjustable pitch (TIME setting). The LEVEL knob adjusts the volume of the
processed signal.
Besides the features above, you can record motion of the TIME knob - push and
hold the REC/CLEAR button and rotate the TIME knob. You can record up to 8" of
knob motion. To clear this automation, double tap the REC/CLEAR button. Please
note that the automation is not saved in memory.
Also, remember that the EFFECTS unit outputs processed (WET) signal only, so in
order to achieve a dry/wet mix, you have to send both the unprocessed (dry) and
processed (wet) signals to the same output(s) on the patch matrix. In that case, the
EFFECTS LEVEL knob will control amount of wet signal. An example of the most
basic patch that involves EFFECTS is shown on page 21 of this manual.
The OUTPUT AMPLIFIER section is for the final treatment of the audio signal before
it is sent to the headphones output and to the main outputs going your external
mixer desk. As there are two output channels (Ch1 output and Ch2 output on the
patch matrix) and each channel has stereo panning (PAN) controls (the manual
only control), you can design advanced soundscapes in stereo. The LEVEL controls
allow for setting the output level manually, but there is a voltage controlled amplifier
on each channel so the control voltage from the patch matrix is added to the
manual level settings, thus providing even more versatility in sound design. When a
CV is applied to one of the channels, while the same but inverted CV is applied to
the other channel, a stereo panning effect is achieved.
Both output channels feature an OUTPUT FILTER that is essentially a tone control.
If the control is at 5 on the dial, the frequency response is flat, turning the control
counter-clockwise (towards the LOW setting) boosts lower frequencies, turning it
clockwise (towards the HIGH setting) boosts higher frequencies. These are
manual-only controls. Use the output filter for final treatment of the outgoing sound
for each channel.
