when you pause. This effect is very useful avoiding ‘muddy or confused’
output when playing fast passages or chords.
The depth of the modulation effects are always controlled by their
<DEPTH> parameter, and their rate by the <SPEED> parameter. In this DYN
TRIG case how fast the ‘ducking’ ends after you pause playing.

when

3.7.4 Changing <SPEED> of Dyn. Effect
You
may
have
noticed
that
it
takes
a
little
while
for
the
delay-echo
to
reappear
after
you've
stopped
playing.
The
<SPEED>
control
can
regulate
this.
Technically,
with
this
‘ducking’
effect,
it
is
called
the
‘release’
time
(see
Glossary
for
more
about
release).
Press
the
<SPEED>
key,
which
will
cause
the
the
current
<SPEED>
value
'2.0'
to
be
shown
(..and
a
green
LED
above
<SPEED>
starts
flashing
...).
The
value
'2.0'
is
a
medium
speed.
To
give
the release
a
very slow speed,
try

:

<ENTER>
(note
that the ‘leading
zero’ can
be
omitted
when
entering
numbers
less
than
'1)
Now
the
echo
effect
hardly
reaches
full
level
before
the
echo-repeats
have
died
out.
Also try entering a ‘fast’ <SPEED> value of ‘10: <SPEED> <10> <0>
<ENTER>. Now the echo reappears almost instantly after you pause or stop
playing.

3.7.5
<REVERSE>’ing
the
Dynamic
’Ducking’
to
get
Dynamic
’Gating’
You can easily ‘reverse’ the dynamic ‘ducking’ with a single keystroke. In
this way the delay-echo effect will only be audible WHILE you are playing.
Simply press the <REVERSE> key in the DYN section. This effect is called
‘gating’. With this effect you can create gated delay effects, which is good
if you e.g. are playing a solo and the key must suddenly change. You still
have the full effect of your playing, but the echo’ed notes of the last bar
won't linger on in the next bar.
