Delay Time
The delay time controls consist
of a slider and four text boxes.
Max Delay
This field sets the maximum de-
lay time the plug-in is capable of
using. The highest value that
you can enter here is '3600', which is an hour (60 minutes times 60 seconds).
NB Changing this value causes the plug-in to reallocate its delay buffers. This can be a
slow operation, especially if the value entered is large. So don't do it when there's actually
audio flowing through the plug-in, as you'll most likely get an ugly stutter or momentary
silence.
Also NB You'll want a lot of RAM to use high values for the delay time! At 44.1kHz, you'll
need about 20MB per minute. If you ask for the maximum 3600 seconds, that's about
1.2GB of RAM you're asking the plug-in to use.
Delay Time
This field reflects the current delay time, in seconds. You can enter a value here directly, or
use the delay slider or tap buttons to set it indirectly.
Min
This field sets the value corresponding to the leftmost position of the delay slider.
Max
This field sets the value corresponding to the rightmost position of the delay slider.
Current delay time
This field (immediately below the delay slider) shows one of the following:
• The current delay time in use, as set by the delay slider/text box.
• The current delay time in use, as set by the host tempo settings, if 'host tempo' is ac-
tive.
• The time since tap recording began, during tap recording.
The time is shown in seconds and in bars/beats/480ths (if the host application supports
the concept of bars/beats etc.).
Delay Slider
This slider lets you adjust the delay time between the two values set in 'Min' and 'Max'.
