Understanding the Mimeophon (cont.)
Halo adds stereo depth and space to the echoes.
In printing, the “halo effect” is the name for excess ink spreading out from the edges of printed objects or letters. On the
Mimeophon, Halo does the same thing, adding a smear of excess sound around the edges of the Repeats.
Inside the Mimeophon is a complex feedback network. The Repeats, Color, and Halo controls are all constantly affecting each
other in various ways. The Color parameter controls the timbre of the Halo. As the Halo control increases toward max, the halos
get wider and denser, and are eventually injected into the feedback paths along with the Repeats for further manipulation.
microRate is always continuous , and maintains the same short range across all Zones, thus allowing for consistent
doppler effects even while TEMPO is patched (the Rate parameter is changing without doppler). Doppler effects
include chorus, vibrato, and flange. This input has a linear response in Zones 1-7 and is affected by Skew. Within Zone 0, i t
has a 1V/ Octave (exponential) response , making it useful for controlling Karplus Strong tone generation. In Zone 0, it is
not affected by Skew.
COLOR and HALO
The COLOR and HALO controls provide control over the timbral character of the Repeats. The response of Color is tailored for
maximum range of expression, and drama when modulated. It emulates the spectral response of anything from the darkest
oil
- can echo, to a warm BBD, to mid-range crunch BBD, to tape echo, to a crispy clean delay, to a thin sizzling early digital
delay line.
The μ or microRate input is a dedicated doppler modulation destination.
