Using Sculpture’s Integrated Delay
This is a (project) tempo-syncable stereo or true surround delay. It can also run freely
(unsynchronized). The Delay section features all the general delay parameters you’d
expect from a delay plus the Groove (delay timing) Pad.

• Delay On/Off button: Enables or disables the Delay section.
• Wet Level knob: Sets the level of the Delay output.
• Feedback knob: Defines the amount of delay signal that is routed back from the output
channels of the delay unit to the input channels of the delay unit. Negative values result
in phase-inverted feedback.
• Xfeed (Crossfeed) knob: Same as the Feedback knob above, but the Xfeed knob defines
the amount of delay signal that is fed from the left output channel to the right input
channel and the right output channel to the left input channel of the delay unit.
Negative values result in phase-inverted feedback of the crossfed signal.
In surround instances, the Xfeed knob controls crossfeedback between the delay lines,
but offers additional crossfeed modes. You can access these in Sculpture’s Extended
Parameters area.
• LoCut slider: Determines the cutoff frequency of the highpass filter at the delay line
output/feedback loop.
• HiCut slider: Determines the cutoff frequency of the lowpass filter at the delay line
output/feedback loop.
• Groove Pad: Used to graphically adjust delay times in stereo or surround instances. See
Using the Sculpture Groove Pad (Stereo) and Using the Sculpture Groove Pad (Surround).
• Input Balance slider: Moves the stereo center of the Delay input to the left or right,
without the loss of any signal components. This makes it ideal for ping-pong delays.
• In surround instances, the parameter moves all channels toward the front left or front
right channel.
