Parameters
 Left / Right: Delay times, synced or free running
 Feedback: In contrast to mono delay, no repetition takes place in the middle
position of the feedback controller. When turned to the left the type of delay is
that of the so-called "ping-pong" variety, i.e. the signal is alternately sent so
that is jumps from one channel to the other. When turned to the right the delay
effect is "dual mono", in which case left and right sides act as two
independent time-delay units.
Chorus
Produces a typical "floating/shimmering sound" by modulated detuning of a
signal to "thicken up" its sound or spread it across the stereo field. Detuning is
achieved by a short delay, the length of which can be varied by the
modulation. This produces the so-called "Doppler" effect.
Parameters
 Time: Delay time in milliseconds. This can be understood as the "base"
modulation which is stretched or compressed by the modulator.
 Rate: Modulation speed
 Depth: Modulation amplitude. Low values modulate only a little, higher values
lead to a clear vibrato.
Flanger
Algorithmically similar to chorus, but different in that the delay time is
significantly lower and delay works with repetitions (feedback). A flanger
sounds more "cutting" and up-front than a chorus.
Parameters
 Rate: Modulation speed
 Feedback: Delay feedback
 Depth: Modulation amplitude
Phaser
A modulation effect just like chorus & flanger, but in this case no detuning
takes placed. Filter components periodically alter the signal's "phase
response" (principle of the "phase shifter"). Characteristic notches are
produced in the frequency spectrum response to create so-called "comb filter
effects". The phaser effect is suitable for pads and "psychedelic" sounds.
