TC Electronic TC 2290 User Manual

Notes
The bypass function of the <DELAY ON> (as well as any key) is available
as a remote control by using one of the <REMOTE 1-5 ASSIGN KEYS>.
Check the seperate note 2290-apn.04 on the subject.
The status of the <DELAY ON> is normally stored in presets like all other
preset parameters. Useful in live performance situations, where you may
want to start off with a preset without effect and then manually turn
the effect on when needed. Via the special functions you can decide
whether the <DELAY ON> switch should be ‘in preset’ or not [9.4].
The status of the external effects are unaffected by the status of the
<DELAY ON> key.
See the notes about direct signal bypass volume in the Output section
description [5.3].
[7.1] gives you a survey of Commands associated with the Input section
and the bypass methods.
The 3 Bypass Methods:
When pressing <DELAY ON> on/off this has the effect:
Special #26 Echo tail ‘History’ echo
Value Bypassmethod when bypassing at DELAY ON
cae iN eo ee ee ae oS ee ee
‘0! Input mute Yes No
‘4! Output mute No Yes
‘2! Both mute No No (as set from factory)
TESE PR ona E ee eee Ie ee
With Spec 26 set to ’0’
Here you get the very useful input mute bypass method. With the input
mute method, a tail of echo continues when you turn off the delay. The
delaypath is also ‘clean’ when you turn on delay. This enables new
controlled ways of applying echo, especially when feedback is also applied.
Note that with the Input Mute choice (0), the direct signal Volume and the
fixed Pan position of the direct signal remains unchanged when bypassing.
With Spec 26 set to °T
lf you prefer the traditional Output mute for a ‘history’ playback this can be
selected by setting spec.no.26 to '1l for ‘output’ mute only.
Suppose that the delaytime eg. is set at 1000mS, then with the ‘output’
bypass method the delay immediately starts playing back the echo of what
you played one second ago (plus earlier recorded feedback).
With Spec 26 set to ’2’
The TC 2290 actually does a double mute when bypassing, - one mute at
the input to the delaypath, another at the output. This is unlike traditional
delays which mute at the output only. The effect is that the TC2290
delaypath is ‘clean’ when you turn delay on.
