Stereo Delay
Stereo Delay lets you set the Delay, Feedback, and Mix parameters separately for the left and
right channels. The Crossfeed knob (for each stereo side) sets the feedback intensity level of each
signal being routed to the opposite stereo side. You can use Stereo Delay on mono tracks or
busses when you want to create independent delays for the two stereo sides.
Note: If you use Stereo Delay on mono channel strips, the track or bus will have two channels
from the point of insertion—all Insert slots after the chosen slot will be stereo.
The parameters for the left and right delays are identical. The descriptions below describe the
left channel—the right channel parameter title is provided in parentheses, if named dierently.
Parameters common to both channels are described after the channel parameters.
Channel parameters
•
Left (Right) Input pop-up menu: Choose the input signal for the two stereo sides. Options
include O, Left, Right, L + R, and L − R.
•
Left (Right) Delay eld: Drag to set the delay time in milliseconds. (The parameter is dimmed
when you synchronize the delay time with the project tempo.)
•
Groove slider and eld: Drag to determine the proximity of every second delay repeat to the
absolute grid position—in other words, how close every second delay repeat is.
•
Note buttons: Click to set the grid resolution for the delay time. These are shown as note
durations. (These are dimmed when the delay time is not synchronized with the project
tempo.)
•
Left (Right) Feedback knob and eld: Rotate to set the amount of feedback for the left and right
delay signals.
•
Crossfeed Left to Right (Crossfeed Right to Left) knob and eld: Rotate to transfer the feedback
signal of the left channel to the right channel, and vice versa.
•
Feedback Phase button: Click to invert the phase of the corresponding channel’s
feedback signal.
•
Crossfeed Phase button: Click to invert the phase of the crossfed feedback signals.
