Analog delay parameter
Analog delay has the following parameters:
Delay type
Delay type (l + r)
: Left and right delay times can be controlled separately (see below). You can choose a note value for the
control pots to snap to. Even and syncopated note values from 1/2 to 1/32 are available. Note that the
delay times are always in relation to the project's current tempo.
Link button (lock symbol)
: Press this button to control the "delay type" pots for both
channels simultaneously.
Mix:
Adjusts the ration between the original signal and the echo.
Modulation
Speed
: The tape warble speed. Low values result in very light fluctuations, high values result in drastic warbling.
Depth
: The warble intensity. When this control is turned all the way to the left, there is no pitch modulation. For
a subtle "analog" feel, we recommend a setting between the 9 and 11 o'clock position.
Filter
"Low"
This control progressively reduces the bass frequency
as it is turned to the right, making the signal sound
"thinner".
"High"
Once turned all the way to the right, the control only
attenuates the treble very lightly; turned completely to
the left, the delay repetitions become progressively
less treble.
Feedback
Width
: This controls the stereo width of the delay repetitions. When you turn "Width" to the right, an additional
effect is produced: the panning of the delays increases. This is commonly referred to as a "ping-pong"
delay.
Drive
: When this control is turned all the way to the left, the delayed signal is repeated only once. Turned all
the way to the right, the feedback is seemingly endless and the repetitions continue for a long time.
The actual strength of the effect is dependent on the material, since the feedback loop (as explained
earlier) is addressed via compression and uses a "tape saturation" effect. If you send a "loud" signal to the
delay, then the feedback will sound longer than at a lower level as compression "brings it up" to a certain
level. If you are used to "purely digital" delays, then this might take some getting used to, but it will
probably sound "livelier".
