The Tap Parameter Bar
The Tap parameter bar shows the current numeric values for every parameter of the
selected tap. You can directly edit these parameters in the Tap parameter bar.
The parameters shown are:
 Filter On/Off button: Enables or disables the highpass and lowpass filters for the
selected tap.
 HP – Cutoff – LP: You can view, and set, the cutoff frequencies (in Hz) for the highpass
and lowpass filters here.
 Slope: Determines how steep the highpass and lowpass filters will be. Click the 6 dB
button for a gentler filter slope, or the 12 dB button for a steeper, more pronounced
filtering effect. You cannot set the slope of the highpass and lowpass filters
independently.
 Reso: Sets the amount of filter resonance for both filters.
 Tap Delay field: This displays both the number and name (top), and delay time
(bottom) of the selected tap.
 Pitch On/Off button: Enables or disables pitch transposition for the selected tap.
 Transpose: Use the first field to set the amount of pitch transposition in semitones,
and the second field to fine tune each semitone step in cents (1/100th of a semitone).
 Flip: Swaps the left and right side of the stereo or surround image. In other words,
clicking this button reverses the tap position from left to right, or vice versa. As an
example, if a tap is set to 55% left, clicking the flip button will swap it to 55% right.
 Pan: The Pan parameter controls the pan position for mono input signals, stereo
balance for stereo input signals, and surround angle when used in surround
configurations. The pan parameter displays a percentage between 100% (full left) and
–100% (full right), which represents the pan position or balance of the tap. A value of
0% represents the center panorama position. When used in surround, a surround
panner replaces the percentage representation. See “Working With Delay Designer in
Surround” for more information.
 Spread: When a stereo to stereo or stereo to surround instance of Delay Designer is
used, this parameter allows you to set the width of the stereo spread for the selected
tap.
 Mute: Clicking this button mutes or unmutes the selected tap.
 Level: Determines the output level for the selected tap.
