THE ECHO
941
Ping-Pong
With Ping-Pong enabled, the stereo position of each delay repeat will alternate between left and right. The Pan knob
determines the stereo width as well as the position of the initial repeat. When the Pan knob is set to full Left, the first
delay bounce will be panned hard Left, the second will be panned hard Right, and so on. When the knob is set to full
Right, the order is reversed (R > L > R etc).
The Feedback section
The Feedback section consists of a main section with Feedback and Offset R controls, as well as a Diffusion subsec-
tion which allows you to add a kind of ‘smearing’ effect to the echo.
Feedback
The Feedback knob sets the amount of feedback, i.e. the amount of wet signal fed back into the delay. This deter-
mines the number of repeats. At zero feedback there will only be a single repeat. Unity gain is achieved at 100%. If
you increase the feedback beyond this it will increase the gain so a distorted signal is produced.
Offset R
This bipolar knob controls the offset in delay Feedback on the right channel. By default, both channels have the same
amount of feedback (as determined by the Feedback parameter), but the Offset R knob allows you to add or subtract
feedback separately for the Right channel only. The practical result is that you will hear the echo gradually wander
from the center to the left or right side.
This control combined with the Offset R in the Delay section can be useful for controlling the length of the effect for
the right channel.
Diffusion
Diffusion introduces kind of a “smearing” effect, somewhat reminiscent of diffusion on a reverb. Raising the Amount
will introduce additional delay repeats very near the ‘original’ repeats, and raising the Spread value will spread these
repeats out wider.
