A laboratory in which to give full reign to your own creativity, as you experiment with
the various “dimensions” of delay.
This versatile delay is user-friendly and suitable for immediate use, but also ideal for
users with a passion for sound research and experimentation, who will soon discover
the unique moods which can be created by synchronizing the various controls.
TimeLab is an analog/digital hybrid delay. The dry signal and the repetition
fi
lter are
controlled by the analog part of the circuit, while powerful, specially created digital
algorithms are used to manage the repetitions, reproducing 4 original delay resonances,
all of exceptionally high sound quality.
Main features:
a choice of four types of delay:
Digital – Analog – Resonance – Modulation
an
active analog
fi
lter
, to give emphasis to the response frequency of the repetitions
a selection of times, from 0 ms to 1000 ms
Tap Tempo
with subdivision between quarter notes, dotted eighth notes and
eighth note triplets
Control over delay time with soft pitch bending.
The ‘Tap Tempo’ allows you to synchronize the delay time with the time of the band or the
music base, or indeed with whatever time you would like to achieve, and to do so
practically, accurately and quickly, directly with your foot even when the pedal is in bypass.
Controls: DELAY - REPEATS - MIX - FILTER - TYPE - TAP TEMPO - RATIO - BYPASS
DELAY
: controls the delay time
REPEATS
: varies the number of repetitions, from 1 to uncontrolled
fl
uctuation
MIX
: controls the level of delay that is mixed with the dry signal
FILTER
: an analog
fi
lter which gives emphasis to the response frequency of the repetitions.
It can be used with all types of delay to enrich the sound environment with unique and
unusual colors.
The control is
fl
at in its central position. Moving it to the left allows you to add emphasis to
the low frequency sounds by obscuring or mu
ffl
ing the repetitions, whereas moving it to
the right will have the opposite e
ff
ect, adding emphasis to the medium-high frequencies.
