Effects/Parameter List

21: TIME CTRL DLY (Time Control Delay)

This effect allows you to use the MFX [CONTROL] knob on the Synth section to control the delay time and pitch in realtime. Lengthening the delay will lower the pitch, and shortening it will raise the pitch.

Parameter

Value

Explanation

 

 

 

Delay #

200–1000 ms

Adjusts the delay time from the di-

 

 

rect sound until the delay sound is

 

 

heard.

Accel

0–15

Adjusts the time over which the

 

 

Delay Time will change from the

 

 

current setting to a newly specified

 

 

setting.

 

 

The rate of change for the Delay

 

 

Time directly affects the rate of

 

 

pitch change.

Feedback #

-98–+98%

Adjusts the proportion of the delay

 

 

sound that is fed back into the ef-

 

 

fect. Negative (-) settings will in-

 

 

vert the phase.

HF Damp

200–8000 Hz,

Adjusts the frequency above

 

BYPASS

which sound fed back to the effect

 

 

will be cut. If you do not want to

 

 

cut the high frequencies, set this

 

 

parameter to BYPASS.

ed sound in 2-cent steps.

Feedback #

-98–+98%

0.0–500.0 ms

Adjusts the delay time from the di-

 

 

rect sound until the pitch shifted

 

 

sound is heard.

Mode

1, 2, 3, 4, 5
