5 - CloCk : DiV
Displays the current beat time in milliseconds and in beats per minute (BPM), as well as the
clock division factor. Turning the rotary encoder will change the DIV (clock division factor) value. When a clock
signal is connected to the (left-hand) CLK input jack the beat time will follow the period of the clock signal,
multiplied by the DIV value. Possible DIV settings are /1, /2, /3, /4, /6, /8, /12, /16, /24, /32, /48, /64, /96,
/128, /192, /256.
●
6 - Time moD : WaVe
Displays the waveshape, level, and rate of the rhythm delay time modulation LFO
(low-frequency oscillator). Turning the rotary encoder will change the shape of the modulating waveform.
Possible settings are : OFF (no modulation), Sinusoid, Triangle, Vibrato 1, Vibrato 2 (a faster vibrato), Down
Chirp (a sinewave with decaying frequency), Up Chirp (a sinewave with increasing frequency), Random.
●
7 - Time moD : leVel
Displays the waveshape, level, and rate of the rhythm delay time modulation LFO.
Turning the rotary encoder will change the amount of modulation applied to the tap delay times. The Level
setting ranges from 0 (no modulation) to 15 (time modulation of 10 msec in amplitude).
●
8 - Time moD : raTe
Displays the waveshape, level, and rate of the rhythm delay time modulation LFO.
Turning the rotary encoder varies the period or rate of the modulation LFO. Rate values are displayed in Hertz
(Hz). Pushing on the encoder while rotating it will change the Rate value in larger increments, to speed up
going from one rate setting to another.
●
9 - grain : QTy
Displays the number and size of grains used by the granular pitch shifters. Turning the
rotary encoder changes the number of grains (Quantity). Possible choices are 1, 2, 4, and 1, no envelope. The
grain shape is triangular for the first 3 settings, but is rectangular for the final setting (1, no envelope). If more
than 1 grain is used, the grains will overlap in time. For Quantity = 2 the overlap is fixed at 50%. In the case
of Quantity = 4 the overlap is nominally 25%, but there is a small random shift in time for each grain. This is
added to prevent excessive comb filtering that would otherwise result.
●
10 - grain : siZe
Displays the number and size of grains used by the pitch shifters. Turning the rotary
encoder changes the size (time interval) of each grain. Possible choices are 5 msec, 10 msec, 21 msec, 42
msec, 84 msec, 168 msec, 336 msec and 671 msec.
●
11 - FeeDbaCk : TaP#
Displays the left and right channel feedback tap numbers, and the feedback time
slip amount. When first entering this display page, the left channel’s feedback tap# is highlighted. Pressing
the button again will highlight the right channel feedback tap#. When Tap# L is highlighted, turning the rotary
encoder will change both the L and R feedback tap#s. When Tap# R is highlighted then only the Tap# R value
will change. Possible values range from 1 to 16, indicating that feedback is taken from the associated delay
line tap. There are two additional settings available, however. When set to “ALL”, the feedback is taken from
the post-filter, post-tap-mix output. In this case there is no pitch shifting applied. When set to “COMB SIZE”
the feedback is taken from a variable position tap whose delay time is set to be equal to the COMB SIZE
parameter. This allows the COMB SIZE controls (e.g. the 1V/oct input) to adjust the feedback time. This can be
used to provide short, tuned, feedback effects without altering the rhythm of the 16 rhythm delay line taps.
●
12 - FeeDbaCk : sliP
Displays the left and right channel feedback tap numbers, and the feedback time slip
amount. Turning the rotary encoder will fine tune the feedback delay time either ahead or behind the selected
tap’s delay time. This can be used to provide “rushing/dragging” echo effects. Possible values range from -16
to 0 (no offset) to +15. The extreme settings (-16 and +15) provide an offset of 1/2 the nominal delay interval
(the interval with the groove amount set to 0) between taps.
●
2 - TaP : griD
Displays the current GRID and STACK settings. Turning the rotary encoder will change the
GRID value. The GRID value defines the relation between the BEAT TIME and the nominal tap delay times
according to the formula : (
tap delay time = BEAT TIME * tap number/ GRID
). GRID values are expressed in
multiples of Taps/Beat. As an example, if the GRID value is 4 / beat, this means that the nominal delay time for
tap #4 will be equal to the BEAT time, the nominal delay time for tap #8 will be equal to twice the BEAT time,
and so on. The BEAT TIME is the time value shown in the CLOCK : TIME display screen. The actual delay time
for a tap will deviate from its nominal value depending on the selected GROOVE TYPE and GROOVE amount.
Possible GRID values are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 16.
●
3 - TaP : sTaCk
Displays the current GRID and STACK settings. Turning the rotary encoder will change the
number and size of the tap stacks. A tap “stack” is a collection of taps that are all given the same delay time,
which will be the delay time of the last tap in the stack. Making stacks of taps is useful when you want to apply
multiple effects at a given time. For example, you can make a four-note Major 7th chord by selecting 4 stacks
of 4 taps, setting the levels of taps #1, 2, 3 and 4 to maximum with all other taps muted or set to zero level,
and setting tap #1 to have a pitch shift of 0, tap #2 to have a pitch shift of +4, tap #3 to have a pitch shift of +7,
and tap #4 to have a pitch shift of +11. Then an input sound will be echoed with a delay time equal to the tap
delay time for tap #4, but will be harmonized as a Maj7 chord.
●
4 - CloCk : Time
Displays the current beat time in milliseconds and in beats per minute (BPM), as well
as the clock division factor. Turning the rotary encoder will change the beat time. If there is a clock signal
connected to the (left-hand) CLK input, the beat time will follow the clock period, multiplied by the clock
division factor, and the rotary encoder will have no effect. The beat time can also be changed by pushing the
large white TEMPO button repeatedly. Pushing on the encoder while rotating it will change the Time value in
larger increments, to speed up going from one time setting to another.
