Delay
Link
For stereo and mono-to-stereo tracks, enable
the Link button to link the Delay, Modulation,
and Mix controls between the Left and Right
channels. This option is highlighted when it is
enabled.
For mono tracks, this option reads
Mono and is
display only.
Delay Time
The Delay Time control sets the delay time be-
tween the original signal and the delayed signal
(from 0.0 ms to 5,000.0 ms).
Feedback (FBK)
The Feedback setting controls the amount of
feedback applied from the output of the delay
back into its input (from –100% to 100%). It also
controls the number of repetitions of the de-
layed signal. Negative feedback settings give a
more intense “tunnel-like” sound to flanging ef-
fects.
Low Pass Filter (LPF)
The Low Pass Filter setting controls the cutoff
frequency of the Low Pass Filter (from 10 Hz to
22 kHz). Use the LPF setting to attenuate the
high frequency content of the feedback signal.
The lower the setting, the more high frequencies
are attenuated. The maximum value for LPF is
Off. This lets the signal pass through without
limiting the bandwidth of the plug-in.
Sync
When Sync is enabled, and a Duration (a rhyth-
mic note value) is selected, the Delay Time set-
ting is affected by the session tempo. When Sync
is disabled, and a Duration is selected, the Delay
Time setting is affected by changes to the Tempo
setting.
When Tempo Sync is enabled, the Tempo and
Meter controls are uneditable and follow the
session tempo and meter changes in the
Pro Tools timeline. The Duration and Groove
controls apply regardless of whether Sync is en-
abled.
Meter
The Meter setting lets you enter either simple or
compound time signatures. The Meter control
defaults to a 4/4 time signature.
When Sync is enabled, the Meter control is un-
available.
Tempo
The Tempo control sets the tempo in beats per
minute (from 5.00 to 500.00 bpm). This setting
is independent of the Pro Tools session tempo.
When a specific Duration is selected, moving
this control affects the Delay Time setting.
When Sync is enabled, the Tempo control is un-
available.
Duration
The Duration setting lets you set the Delay Time
based on a rhythmic value. Select the desired
note value (whole note, half note, quarter note,
eight note, or sixteenth note). Additionally, you
can select the Dot or Triplet modifier buttons to
dot the selected note value or make it a triplet.
