Understanding the Mimeophon (cont.)
Zones (cont.)
The various Zones of the Mimeophon are nest ed inside each other from shortest to longest : Zone 1 contains all of Zone
0 , Zone 2 contains all of Zone 1 , etc. The incoming sound is always being written into ALL the Zones, so switching from
smaller Zones to larger ones will often unearth sounds from seconds or even minutes ago. Repeats in smaller Zones are
also written into larger Zones.
Possible Rates per Zone
The shortest Rate (see p. 11 ) for each Zone is 1/4 the "delay time" of the longest Rate, with the exception of Zones 0 and 7 ,
whose shortest Rates are 1/16 the time (in Zone 0 , this translates to a 4-octave range).
When the TEMPO input is not in use , the Rate ranges for each Zone are as follows (rounded to the nearest millisecond for
longer Zones, and the nearest 1/10 of one millisecond for shorter Zones).
Zone 0 : 1.3ms to 20.4ms
Zone 1 : 20.4ms to 81.6ms
Zone 2 : 81.6ms to 326.5ms
Zone 3 : 163.3ms to 653.1ms
Zone 4 : 326.5ms to 1.306s
Zone 5 : 653.1ms to 2.612s
Zone 6 : 1.306s to 5.225s
Zone 7 : 2.612s to 41.796s
Note that for Zones 2 through 7 , each Zone ' s Rate range overlaps the adjacent Zone's by 50%. For all Zones, the Rate range is
exactly 2, 4, or 8 times greater or smaller than the adjacent Zones. Th ese relationships ensure that any change from one Zone
to the next will result in overlapping echoes that remain in time with each other.
