DELAY
The delay of the Monomachine is a single tap delay with real-time adjustable delay time.
Some of its functionality can resemble tape loops and solid state CCD delays. The delay
time is always synchronised to the global tempo setting.
DSND (delay send) controls the level of sound that will be sent to the delay loop. To get any
effect from the delay you first need to adjust DSND to some value other than zero and then
generate some sound.
The parameter can be set to positive or negative values. For negative values the stereo
image of the signal will be preserved and for positive values it will be switched left-right.
The feedback loop will also be switched depending if the DSND is set to positive or nega-
tive values. This means that you should set negative DSND values to get delay with pre-
served stereo image, and positive values for ping-pong delay.
DTIM (delay time) controls the delay time of the delay loop. The actual delay time is relative
to the current tempo, and it is measured in 256th notes. For instance, for a one beat delay
(four 16th notes) delay time should be set to 64.
When changing the DTIM parameter or changing the tempo you will hear the contents in
the delay loop speed up or down to adjust to the new tempo set. This behaviour allows the
delay time parameter to be changed at any time, without the typical digital artefacts or brief
silence sometimes experienced when adjusting delay time of digital delays.
DFB (delay feedback) parameter controls how much of the delay output sound will be fed
back into the input of the delay. Using the delay feedback you can make delays with sev-
eral or infinite echoes.
DBAS (delay filter base) controls the high pass filtering of the signal from the delay feed-
back loop.
DWID (delay filter width) controls the low pass filtering of the signal from the delay feed-
back loop, relative the DBAS parameter.
