Delay
The delay processor temporarily stores the signal in delay memory, then passes it on after the specified interval
has elapsed. The System Processor provides the following types of delay:
Block Name Description
§ DLY5ms 5 Millisecond Maximum Delay
§ DLY150ms 150 Millisecond Maximum Delay
§ DLY500ms 500 Millisecond Maximum Delay
§ DLY2s 2 Second Maximum Delay
Function
Use delay to align the sound output from different speakers so that it arrives simultaneously at the
audience members. You can also use delay to correct phase cancellation problems between installed
loudspeakers. Delay can be calculated with time, distance, and air temperature increments.
Note: Each type of delay processor block will consume the maximum amount of delay
memory indicated in the block name, regardless of how much you are actually using.
In order to conserve System Processor resources, you should select the delay
processor with the nearest maximum to your required delay time.
Parameter Window Features
This section explains the features of the delay processors using the DLY150 as the example, as
pictured above in figure 39. The features of the other delays are identical, aside from the maximum
delay time available.
Units
Use this control to specify whether parameters should be
in English or Metric units. The default value is English.
Time
Use this control to specify the delay in milliseconds. The range of values is
between 0ms and the maximum delay time of the processor block, in this
case 150ms. The default value is 0ms.
