Delay

Add echoes in the song's tempo, ping-pong, frozen, filtered or moving.

The Delay is a stereo echo, with a left side and a right side. With Sync, the echoes follow the song's tempo.

ControlWhat it does
DelayOn and off
SyncEcho time in notes, in the song's tempo
LinkThe right side follows the left
FreezeLoops what is in the delay and ignores new input
FilterTurns on the band-pass filter on the echoes
Repitch, Fade, JumpHow a time change sounds: Repitch bends the pitch, like tape; Fade crossfades to the new time; Jump changes at once and may click

The time on each side

  • With Sync: the count (1 to 16, with the arrows) times the division, from 1/64 to 1/1, in 19 options, straight, triplet (T) and dotted (D). The resulting time shows beside it, in ms.
  • Without Sync: the time on a fader, from 5 to 5000 ms.
  • Offset (Sync only): pushes the side early or late by up to 33.3 %.
  • With Link, the R side reads Linked to L and only its Offset remains. Without Link, R's ♩/ms key turns on Sync for that side alone.

Filter and LFO

  • Filter: Freq (50 Hz to 18 kHz) and Width (0.5 to 9). On the X-Y pad, dragging sideways changes the frequency and up and down the width.
  • LFO: seven shapes (Sine, Triangle, Ramp Up, Ramp Down, Square, S&H, Wander); the speed with its mode in a menu (Rate, Time, Synced, Triplet, Dotted, Sixteenth); Morph, which does nothing on S&H and Wander; Delay, how much the LFO moves the echo time; Filter, how much it moves the filter.
  • On the Phone, Filter and LFO sit in tabs.
