Controls
PSP B-Scanner's front panel is divided into three sections. The center section contains general controls, and the
upper and lower sections offer dedicated controls for the Fast and Slow speed settings, respectively. Please read
the description of individual controls below in order to learn how to get the most out of this plug-in.
Center Section
This section of the plug-in contains the global parameters controls of the plug-in. These include the Mode
Selector, various emulation settings as well as input and output ampliFer settings. The most important
parameter is the Mode Selector, allowing you to set the character of the effect by selecting one of six different
modes. Other important features include the Speed Lever, which allows you to set the rotation speed, and the
Speed and Stop buttons, which are used respectively for switching between speeds and stopping the rotation of
the scanner motor completely.
PSP B-SCANNER
Click on this label to open the about box of the plug-in. The about box contains information about this plug-in,
the current version number and your authorization details. Click anywhere in the about box area to close it.
SPEED Lever
The speed lever is the main way to smoothly control the speed of the plug-in. It is possible to jump to any
chosen position by clicking on that position, or by clicking the SLOW and FAST labels (which automatically
set the lever position to minimum/maximum, respectively). Please note that this lever does not control the
speed directly as the rotation speed is always subject to inertia – its parameters (acceleration time, deceleration
time) can be deFned for both channels in the Slow and Fast sections of the plug-in.
SPEED Button
This button immediately shifts the speed lever to Fast or Slow positions depending on the current state of the
plug-in’s speed settings including the previously set speed and lever setting.
STOP Button
Use this button to stop the scanner motor. When clicked, stop mode is engaged and the button illuminates red.
The second click of this button disengages stop mode and switches the rotation to its previous settings (as set by
the lever).
EMULATION
This set of knobs controls various settings of the scanner emulation.
