SPILLOVER
Spillover allows delay and reverb tails to “ring out” when an effect is bypassed or when you change channels,
scenes, or presets. This section covers how to set up spillover in different scenarios.
WHEN BYPASSING A BLOCK (“IA” SWITCHES)
Block spillover is easy and requires only a particular setting in the block. For tails to ring out when an individual
block is bypassed, set that block’s Bypass Mode to “MUTE FX IN”. If an effect is running in parallel, use “MUTE
IN” instead. Be aware that different channels share effect memory, so changes to time, size, etc, may still cause a
“sweep” in the tail.
WHEN SWITCHING SCENES
Scene changes provide one of the best ways for sound changes to have perfect spillover. Since scenes simply
bypass or engage blocks one-by-one or in groups, just refer to the instructions above for Block Bypass for all
blocks in your preset.
WHEN CHANGING PRESETS
Spillover across different presets is a bit more involved. The first step is to open the Settings page of the Global
menu under SETUP to and set the Spillover parameter to determine whether “DELAY”, “REVERB”, or “BOTH” will
spill over when you change presets.
You must also ensure that the exact same Delay or Reverb blocks exist in each of them. These need to be the
same block and the same number (i.e. Delay 1 spills over only through Delay 1, Delay 2 through Delay 2, etc.).
For spillover to work perfectly, the pair(s) of blocks in both “starting” and “landing” presets must have similar
settings and placement on the grid. The moment you change to a new preset, the parameter settings for its
blocks will “take over” the duties of processing any tails. So, for example, if you change from a preset where
Delay 1 has a time of 500 ms to one where the same value is 100 ms, the tails will suddenly be heard as 100 ms
echoes instead. You would likewise hear quite a sudden difference in the tail, for instance, if a delay were placed
after a clean amp block in one preset, and before an overdriven amp block in another! Bypass states and Bypass
Mode settings must also be considered.
For a simple preset spillover experiment, create a preset, then save an exact copy to a new location and
test spillover. Then begin making changes as needed to settings outside of those blocks that you want
to spill over. Axe-Edit III also makes it easy to copy and paste a block from one preset to another.
