Delay
You can select between 3 basic delay characteristics:
• Stereo Delay has two separate delay lines panned left and
right.
• In Mono Delay the two delay lines are connected in series for
monophonic dual tap delay effects.
• In Cross delay the delayed sound bounces between the ste-
reo channels.
The parameters are as follows:
Modulation
You can select between 3 modulation characteristics:
• The Phaser uses an 8-pole allpass filter to produce the classic
phasing effect.
• The Flanger is composed of two independent delay lines with
feedback for the left and the right channel respectively. The
delay time of both delays is modulated by one LFO with ad-
justable frequency.
• Chorus produces a rich chorus effect with 4 delays modulated
by four independent LFOs.
The parameters are as follows:
SR parameters
With these buttons you can change the sample rate.
Lower sample rates basically reduces the high frequency
content and sound quality, but the pitch isn’t altered. This
is a great way to emulate the “lo-fi” sounds of older digital
synths!
• If button “F” is active, the selected Part’s program will play
back with the sample rate set in the host application.
• If button “1/2” is active, the selected Part’s program will play
back with half the original sample rate.
• If button “1/4” is active, the selected Part’s program will play
back with a quarter of the original sample rate.
• A bonus effect of using lower sample rates is that it re-
duces the load on the computer CPU, allowing more si-
multaneous voices to be played etc.
Parameter Description
Song Sync This switches tempo sync of the delay times on or off.
Delay 1 Sets the delay time ranging from 0ms to 728ms. If MIDI
sync is activated the range is from 1/32 to 1/1; straight,
triplet or dotted.
Delay 2 Same as Delay 1.
Feedback This controls the decay of the delays. With higher set-
tings the echoes repeat longer.
Filter A lowpass filter is built into the feedback loop of the de-
lay. This parameter controls the cutoff frequency of this
feedback filter. Low settings result in successive echoes
sounding darker.
Level This controls the output level of the effect.
Parameter Description
Song Sync This switches tempo sync of the Rate parameter on or
off.
Rate Sets the rate of the LFOs modulating the delay time. If
Song Sync is activated the rate will be synced to various
beat increments.
Depth This parameter controls the depth of the delay time mod-
ulation.
Delay This parameter sets the delay time of the four delay lines.
Feedback The feedback parameter controls the amount of positive
or negative feedback for all four delay lines. The adjust-
able range is from -1 to 1.
Level This controls the output level of the effect.
