wet signal.
Working With Delay Designer in Surround
Delay Designer is optimally designed for use in surround configurations. With 26 taps,
you can fly delay taps all over the surround field for some truly amazing rhythmic
effects!
When instantiating Delay Designer in any surround configuration, the pan percentage
on the Tap parameter bar is replaced with a surround panner, allowing you to
determine the surround position of each tap.
The movement of the surround position is made easier with these functions:
 Hold Command to lock diversity.
 Hold Command-Option to lock the angle.
 Option-click the blue dot to reset angle and diversity.
In the Tap display’s Pan view, you will only be able to adjust the angle of the tap
between 0 and 360 degrees, not its diversity.
Delay Designer always processes each input channel independently.
 In a mono/stereo input, surround output configuration, Delay Designer processes the
two stereo channels independently, and the surround panner lets you place each
delay around the surround field.
 In surround input, surround output configurations, Delay Designer processes each
surround channel independently, and the surround panner lets you adjust the
surround balance of each tap in the surround field.
Note: The Delay Designer generates separate automation data for stereo pan and
surround pan operations. This means that when using the Delay Designer in surround
channels, it will not react to existing stereo pan automation data, and vice versa.
