Audio Damage Replicant 1.5 - Manual (Page 14)

The horizontal position of the white circle in the PAN control sets the initial stereo placement of the looped
audio. If the white circle is at the center of the control, the audio is placed at the center of the stereo field.
Moving the circle left or right moves the processed audio in the same direction.
The DIRECTION & SPEED slider controls the direction that the auto-panner moves the looped audio and the
speed with which it moves. If this slider is placed at the center of its range, the auto-panner has no effect. If
you move this slider to the right, the looped audio moves to the right with each repetition, and moves to the
left if you move the slider the other way. The further you move the slider (in either direction) the faster the
auto-panner moves.
The PAN MODE buttons control how the panner operates when it reaches one side of the stereo field or the
other. If the REFLECT button is illuminated, the panner changes direction when it reaches either side; that is,
it bounces, or reflects, from one side to the other. This panning style is similar to a ping-pong stereo delay. If
the WRAP button is illuminated, the panner jumps to the other side when it reaches either side and continues
in the same direction.
As an example, if you place the white circle of the PAN control at the top-right corner and move the
DIRECTION & SPEED slider somewhat left from its center position, the looped audio will start at the right side
of the stereo field and move towards the left. If the number of repetitions (set by the REPEATS numerical,
described above) is sufficient, the looped audio will reach the left side of the stereo field. If the REFLECT
button is depressed the audio will move back towards the right; if the WRAP button is depressed the audio
will jump back to the right side. The vertical position of the white circle in the PAN control controls the overall
width of the movement.
If Replicant is inserted in a mono-in/mono-out context in your host program, the panning controls have no
effect.
5. Output Controls
The controls in this section affect how the repeated audio is mixed with the incoming audio. There is also a
bit-reduction control and buttons for randomizing Replicant‟s parameters.
Randomize Buttons
Clicking the RANDOMIZE button sets most of Replicant‟s parameters to randomly chosen values. Click this
button when you want to create an effect with Replicant that you might not come up with by yourself. The FX
MODE and BITS parameters are excluded from randomization to reduce the chance that Replicant will create
unexpectedly loud output signals. The RAND HOLD button is also not changed randomly.
