Bass Boost Frequency
Sets the frequency at which the transition from Mid Rt to Low Rt takes place. This con-
trol should be set at least two octaves higher than the low frequency you want to boost.
For example, to boost a signal at 100Hz, set Bass Boost Frequency to 400Hz. (This
setting works well for classical music.) Crossover works best around 400Hz for boosting
low frequencies, and around 1.5 kHz for cutting low frequencies.
ER Time
Adjusts the amount of time before reverb early reflections occur.
ER Level
Adjusts the level of early reflections within the reverb.
Feedback Delay
Changing this parameter changes the resonant frequencies of
Plate
reverb.
Feedback Level
Adjusts the
Plate
reverb's presence and prominence.
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.
Mono Delay -
Mono In/Stereo Out
The Mono Delay is a standard digital delay and is the cleanest, most accurate of the
delay effects. It offers up to 5 seconds of mono delay and features ducking capability.
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.
