the output. The Millennium delays have a feedback meter that is used to send a portion of the delayed signal back to the input to be re- recorded along with new source material. The feedback setting determines how long the delay repeats take to decay to inaudibility.

When do I use delay? When you’re the lone guitarist in a band, the Delay can be your best friend. The Delay repeats can create the illusion that there is more than one guitar being played. One trick to using delays effectively is setting the delays to fall in time with the music. This used to mean grabbing a calculator, dividing 60 by the tempo (beats per minute), then dividing that answer by the desired sub- beats . . . Sound like a hassle? Yeah, we thought so too. So the Millennium takes care of all the calculations for you! All you have to do is tap the TapIt <button> or (assign the tapit parameter to a footswitch on the J-12 or J-3) and manually tap in the desired delay time and the new time is added.

Another common use for delay is for stereo imaging. Very small amounts of delay (10-25ms) can be used to make a signal sound like it is panned to one side. This trick works because of the way the brain interprets sounds. When your left ear hears something before the right ear, it thinks that the source of that sound is found somewhere to your left. You can also use delays set at 30-60ms, which spreads a sound to the extremes of the stereo image. Be careful with this technique if your mix has a chance of being listened to in mono.

Delay Parameters

Note: not all of the parameters listed below are available in all Delay modules.

FX: Lvl

Controls the signal input level fed to the Module. Ranges from Off to 100%.

Dry: Lvl

Controls the level of the dry (uneffected) signal. Ranges from Off to 100%.

Balance

Controls the positioning of the dry signal in the stereo soundfield. Ranges from -99 (all left) to 99 (all right).

Dly Time

Sets the maximum delay time available to each delay voice. For example, if DELAYTIME is set to 1000 ms, each delay

 

voice can be set from 0 to 100% of that delay time. Ranges from 0 to 1.4 seconds (Maximum delay times differ

 

between 4th, 3/4, HLF, and FUL module Types.) Half bandwidth delay times automatically double the set delay time

 

used used.

FdBck

Controls the fade time of the delay repeats. Higher settings take longer to fade out, while a setting of zero could be

 

used to limit the delay to one repeat per voice. The delay provide both positive and negative feedback settings.

 

Ranges from -99% to +99%.

TapIt

Allows you to change DELAYTIME in real-time, by tapping the TAPIT button at the tempo you want. Delay voice

 

percentages do not change when using this control.

Smear

Sets the spread of Diffusion of the Delay Repeats. Ranges from 0 to 100%.

LPF

Selects where the Low Pass Filter is positioned within the Delay Module. Positions are: Pre Delay or Post Delay.

Frequency

Selects the Frequency band that appears in the LPF. Ranges from 25 Hz to 20 kHz.

Gain

Controls the output gain of the LPF. Ranges from -12 to 12.
