“ADT” eect
PRE DELAY control knob adjusts the delay time before the second voice is heard. Delay is adjustable within the range 0 to 127ms.
PATTERN control knob selects the number and spacing of the second voices. Selection is from Pattern 1 (two voices) to Pattern 5 (eight voices).
REV button mutes the eect.
Preset parameters: On selecting this eect program, delay is set to 40ms and pattern is Pattern 5 (a wide multi-voiced eect).
Stereo mix: Left and right output signals use dierent delay taps to achieve a stereo eect. Using only one output halves the number of ‘voices’, that is, Pattern 1 (one
voice) to Pattern 5 (four voices).
Application N otes:
• Try delays from 25 to 50ms. Short delays reduce the eect, long delays produce echo.
• Direct signal must be added at a suitable level on the mixing console. Try 50/50 direct/eect mix on Pattern 1, much less direct on Pattern 5.
• For conventional ADT, try ‘Delay’ of 40ms, Pattern 1, and use one output only, panned, say, fully right. Pan direct signal fully left and use a 50/50 direct/eect mix.
“Multi-Tap Echo” eect
PRE DELAY control knob adjusts the time delay interval between the direct signal and the rst repeat. Delay is adjustable from 0 to 990ms.
PATTERN control knob selects the number and spacing of the repeats. Pattern 1 (two repeats) to Pattern 9 (eight repeats).
DECAY control knob sets the feedback (regeneration) level for repeat echoes.
HF control knob allows the high frequency ltering to be applied to the regenerated signal.
REV button mutes the eect.
Preset parameters: On selecting this eect program: delay is set to 196ms; pattern is Pattern 4; decay is 73; and HF is 0. These settings give an eect similar to a
typical multi-head tape echo, but with full stereo image.
Stereo mix: Dierent delay taps are used for left and right outputs to achieve a stereo eect. Using only one output halves the number of taps, that is, Pattern 1 (one
tap), Pattern 9 (four taps).
Application Notes:
• Set delay time as required, generally fairly short for multi-echoes (higher pattern numbers), and longer for repeat echo. ‘Fine tune’ delay setting to set exact
musical timing for single tap repeat echoes.
• Direct signal must be added at a suitable level on the mixing console.
• For single tap repeat echo, start with Pattern 1, with ‘Delay’, ‘HF’ and ‘Decay’ all set at maximum. Reduce parameters as required. Use one output only.
“Sound-On-Sound” eect
PRE DELAY control knob sets the ‘loop length’ and hence the timing of the eect between 0 and 2.0 seconds.
LEVEL control knob provides 10 level increments of signal input to the ‘digital loop’. Return level to ‘0’ after use to avoid noise build-up.
DECAY control knob sets the ‘erasure’ of the loop from ‘0’ (100% erasure) to ‘99’ (zero erasure).
REV button clears memory of unwanted eect.
Preset parameters: On selecting this eect program: pre-delay is set to 2.0s; level is 0; and decay is 99. These settings represent maximum loop length with zero
erasure. Please note that no sound will be heard until ‘level’ is increased.
Stereo mix: Outputs left and right are essentially identical. However, to avoid the possibility of slight phase cancellations, it is recommended that only one output is
used on this program.
Application Notes:
• Since the ‘level’ inside the signal processor increases as fresh input is added, input level must be lower than that recommended for normal use; try -15dB on the
headroom indicator. Digital overload will be indicated by the red LED illuminating on the headroom indicator.
• Correct pre-delay (‘loop length’) should be set before creating the eect as attempts to alter this later will usually destroy part of the recorded sound.
• Remember to return level to ‘0’ immediately after used to avoid noise build-up.
