Effect parameters for Delay and EchoTab. 4.2:
PITCHER, BITCRUSHER:
PITCHER changes the pitch of the music without changing the
tempo. Shift adjusts the pitch.
BITCRUSHER simulates a decrease in the digital resolution. From
soft lo- settings to toy sounds, everything is possible.
Effect parameters for Pitch and BitcrusherTab. 4.3:
REVERB:
REVERB is a reverberation effect. Eight different reverb room si-
mulations are available. When Fade is activated, the reverberation
decays and is not truncated in case the effect is turned off.
Ambient is a very short reverb which lets you virtually hear the
walls of the room.
Box delivers a spatial impression without long reections.
Cathedral: The long and dense reverb of a big cathedral, ideal
for slow tracks.
Cavern: An intensive, high-frequency-dominant reverb based on
a cave with rocky walls.
Chamber produces the short reverb of a small room.
Chorus: A thick, warm reverberation which is shorter than that
of Cathedral.
Concert simulates the well-dened reverb of a big concert hall.
Echo: A thick, short reverb with a longer pre-delay.
Effect parameters for ReverbTab. 4.4:
FILTER:
FILTER is an effect which is typically associated with synthesizer
music. Three types of lters are available: Band Pass, Low Pass
and High Pass. Resonance is used to increase the level of the
lter frequency which makes the effect sound more intensive. In
LFO Mode, the lter frequency is controlled by an LFO. Manual
Mode lets you control the lter frequency with the DEPTH knob
[44].

Editing effects4.1.5
As already mentioned in the previous chapter, each effect has
up to ve parameters (depending on the effect type) with which
you can adjust the effect. In each case it is possible to adjust one
parameter by using the BEAT push buttons. In most cases, this
is the BPM-synchronized parameter.
Effect parameters:
Press the PARAMETER push button 1) [47] to select a parame-
ter. This only works when the effect is deactivated (the FX ON
push button does not ash).
Alternatively, press the PARAMETER knob 2) [45] to select a
parameter.
Change the parameter value by turning the PARAMETER 3)
knob [45].
To switch to the next parameter, press PARAMETER 4) [45] or
[47] again.
Dry / Wet mix:
Turn the MIX knob = [44] slowly to the right to mix the effect
(Wet) to the original signal (Dry).
BPM-synchronized effect parameters4.1.6
Some of the effect sound especially interesting when time-related
parameters respond to the rhythm of the music. The DDM4000
supports editable, BPM-synchronized parameters.
Editing BPM-synchronized parameters:
Make sure that the BPM Counter calculates the correct value 1)
(if applicable, enter manually with TAP, see Chapter 4.2).
Change the parameter step-by-step with the BEAT push but-2)
tons [49]. The selected value appears on the display.
DELAY, ECHO:
For the delay and echo effect, you can edit the delay time in musical
units. The number of beats is displayed:
