Overview of Modes and Sub-modes<br />

Description Sub-Mode A Sub-Mode B Sub-Mode C<br />

Normal<br />

Normal delay sounds<br />

Short delay<br />

(5.5ms – 95ms )<br />

Medium delay<br />

(45ms-800ms)<br />

Long delay<br />

(700ms-2.2s)<br />

Tap<br />

Tap tempo delay.<br />

d time | ratio knob<br />

controls ratio . Ratios<br />

are 1:1, 1:2, 1:4.<br />

Delay time is the<br />

same as the tapped<br />

time.<br />

Triplet rhythm: delay<br />

time is 1/3 the tapped<br />

time.<br />

Dotted quarter rhythm:<br />

delay time is 1.5x the<br />

tapped time.<br />

Auto-Set<br />

Delay time is set<br />

automatically based on<br />

the input. d time | ratio<br />

knob controls ratio.<br />

Low trigger<br />

threshold for quiet<br />

guitars or quiet<br />

playing.<br />

Medium trigger<br />

threshold.<br />

High trigger threshold<br />

for loud guitars or loud<br />

playing.<br />

Reverse<br />

Delayed signal is<br />

reversed. d time | ratio<br />

knob controls ratio in<br />

sub-modes b and c.<br />

d time | ratio knob<br />

controls how long<br />

reversed segments<br />

of audio are.<br />

Length of reversed<br />

segments is set by<br />

tapping the tap<br />

switch.<br />

Reversed segments are<br />

played back an octave<br />

higher.<br />

Rhythm<br />

Rhythmic repeats with<br />

up to four repeats<br />

entered by tapping.<br />

d time | ratio knob<br />

controls ratio and scale<br />

of pattern.<br />

d time | ratio<br />

knob scales the<br />

rhythm tapped.<br />

d time | ratio knob<br />

stretches or<br />

compresses the<br />

rhythm.<br />

First tap is quiet, taps<br />

get progressively louder.<br />

Tape<br />

Analog tape delay<br />

emulation. tap switch<br />

sets the delay time.<br />

High quality tape<br />

compression<br />

artifacts added to<br />

delayed signal.<br />

Tape compression<br />

artifacts with a little<br />

bit of ‘wow and<br />

flutter’ added to the<br />

delayed signal.<br />

Tape compression<br />

artifacts with subtle<br />

intermittent dropouts<br />

akin to an older,<br />

shedding tape.<br />

Misc<br />

Miscellaneous<br />

operation modes.<br />

Feedback increases<br />

as input volume<br />

decreases.<br />

Mix increases (more<br />

wet) as input volume<br />

decreases.<br />

Press tap switch to<br />

start/stop delay. Lets<br />

you trail off delayed<br />

signal.<br />

Looper<br />

Record and loop audio<br />

clips. tap switch<br />

starts/stops recording.<br />

presets switch stops,<br />

clears existing loop.<br />

Normal looper<br />

mode. 6.8 seconds<br />

of loop time.<br />

Long looper mode.<br />

13.6 seconds of loop<br />

time.<br />

Loop is played back in<br />

reverse. Audio layered<br />

after initial loop begins<br />

playback is played back<br />

forwards.<br />
