Echo Module
The Echo module is a delay line used primarily for longer echo effects. When
very short delay times or modulation are desired, use the Mod Delay instead.
When VERY long delay times are desired, use the UAD DM-L plugin which
has up to 2400 milliseconds available delay per stereo channel.
Sync Button This button puts the plugin into Tempo Sync mode. See “Tempo Sync” on
page 60 for more information.
Input Knob The Input knob attenuates the signal coming into the Echo module. The signal
already passed into the Echo module is still processed even when the Input
knob is at its minimum value (maximum attenuation).
This functionality enables the Echo to continue to process its signal even when
no new signal is being input. Therefore, volume swells with Echo can be au-
tomated and high Recirculation effects such as sampling and “infinite repeat”
techniques can be realized.
Time Knob Sets the delay time between the original signal and the delayed signal. The
maximum available delay time is 1200 milliseconds.
Recirculation
(Recir) Knob
Sets the amount of processed signal fed back into its input. Higher values in-
crease the number of delays and intensity of the processed signal.
Recirculation allows both positive and negative values. The polarity refers to
the phase of the delays as compared to the original signal. If Recirculation dis-
plays a positive value, all the delays will be in phase with the source. If it dis-
plays a negative value, then the phase of the delays flips back and forth be-
tween in phase and out of phase.
