Boing
This is a unique parameter to the
Spring
reverb, designed to increase or decrease the
amount of spring rattle that is a physical characteristic of spring tank reverbs.
deLAyS
Delays repeat a sound a short time after it first occurs. Delay becomes echo when the
output is fed back into the input (feedback). This turns a single repeat into a series of
repeats, each a little softer than the last.
Studio Delay -
Stereo
The
Studio Delay
features up to 2.5 seconds of stereo delay and offers a built-in
ducker that attenuates the delay output whenever signal is present at the input. This
can be used to keep the original signal from being muddied up by delay repeats.
Digital Delay -
Mono In/Stereo Out
The
Digital Delay
is the cleanest, most accurate of the delay programs, with up to 5
seconds of mono delay and the built-in ducking feature.
Tape Delay -
Mono In/Stereo Out
In the days before digital, delays were created using a special tape recorder in which
the magnetic recording tape was looped, with closely-spaced recording and playback
heads. The delay effect was created by the tape moving in the space between the record
and playback heads – while delay time was adjusted by changing the speed of the tape
loop. Although very musical-sounding, wow and flutter combined with a significant
loss of high frequencies, and to some extent also low frequencies, are all elements
commonly associated with tape recordings. The
Tape Delay
offers up to 5 seconds of
mono delay.
Pong Delay -
Mono In/Stereo Out
This delay effect pans the delay repeats from left to right, while the input signal
remains at its original (center) position.
Pong Delay
offers up to 5 seconds of mono
delay time.
Modulated Delay -
Stereo
The
Modulated Delay
is enhanced by an LFO (low frequency oscillator) that
produces a chorusing effect on the delay repeats. This is a great delay for guitar and
instrument passages that need that “special something.” The
Modulated Delay
features up to 2.5 seconds of stereo modulated delay.
Reverse Delay -
Mono In/Stereo Out
This delay effect emulates the old studio trick of flipping a tape over, playing it back-
wards through a tape delay, and recording the effect. The delays “build up” from softer
to louder – creating the sensation that the delays come before the signal. Up to 2.5
seconds of mono delay time are available.
