Delay Sliders
The following is a list of sliders available for each selected delay. Slide left to decrease the delay time and

button at the rate you would like the delay.
Delay (Mono, Tape Echo) — This slider sets the current delay time in milliseconds, from 10 ms to 1600 ms.

Delay L (Stereo, Ping-Pong) — This slider sets the left side current delay time in milliseconds, from

Delay R (Stereo, Ping-Pong) — This slider sets the right side current delay time in milliseconds, from

Delay 1 (Multi-Tap) — Thisslidersetsonedelaytimeinmilliseconds,from10msto1600ms.Atap1button
resides in the upper-left corner of the delay image if you would rather tap the preferred delay tempo.
Delay 2 (Multi-Tap) — This slider sets a second delay time in milliseconds, from 10 ms to 1600 ms.

Feedback (All) — This controls how much of the delayed signal is routed back to the input of the delay
section, to create multiple echoes. The feedback gain is less than one, so each time the signal is fed back,

Damping (All) — This applies a low-pass lter to the delayed signal and rolls o the higher frequencies.
It ranges from 500 Hz to 20 kHz.
