- CONTROL KNOBS -
The four knobs on the left side of the Grand Canyon control the main
parameters of the delay effects and the looper. These knobs have different
functions depending on the current mode. The top row of red labels
specifies the delay-specific functions of the knobs, while the bottom row
of orange labels specifies the looper-specific functions of the knobs. The
chart below lists which functions are active in each mode:

playing before entering Delay Mode.
Delay parameters
DELAY LVL – Wet/dry control that sets the balance between your dry
signal and the delay effects produced by the Grand Canyon. When this
knob is at the minimum position, the output is only your dry signal. As
the knob is turned up, the delay output increases in volume. As the knob
is turned past 2 o’clock, the dry signal decreases in volume. When the
knob is at the maximum position, the output is only the delay output.
Note: in Sample/Hold, the dry signal remains at unity volume even as
DELAY LVL is turned to maximum.
FEEDBACK – Controls the number of repeats of the delayed signal. As
this knob is turned clockwise, the number of repeats increases.
DELAY – Controls the delay time of the Grand Canyon for all Delay
Types. Turn this knob clockwise to increase the delay time. Most Delay
Types range from 5 milliseconds to 3 seconds but some Delay Types
have different ranges.
