DRUM – Drum Echo
Emulates the classic effect of a 60s era magnetic drum echo, complete
with a drum age control and equally spaced playback heads to create
unique echo rhythms. The delay time is divided by total number of drum
playheads. For example: if the delay time is 1200ms in 4-Playhead mode,
each playhead is spaced 300ms apart. In the secondary 3-Playhead mode
they are 400ms apart.
RHYTHM: In standard mode, this knob selects between up to 13
available drum rhythms, all based on a grouping of 4 playback heads.
Change to secondary mode (see page 34) to access 8 more rhythms,
all of which are based on 3 playback heads, except the last rhythm,
which has 4 play heads. The table below details all of the available
rhythms.
TIP: Typically, 4-head rhythms match up with 4/4 time, and
the 3-head rhythms match up with 3/4 or 6/8 time. However,
switching to the other set of playback heads can help you explore
different polyrhythms that might liven up the feel of a song.

TIP: Use position 4 in standard mode for a straight-forward delay with
no special rhythm.
DRUM AGE: Simulates the aging of the magnetic drum. As you turn
the knob clockwise, the magnetics age more which simultaneously
filters high end, distorts the signal and adds warble.
