Chapter 4—Input Channels
Channel Delay
The Delay function can be used to compensate for microphone placement, or simply
as a delay effect. Three types of delay are available: Delay, Slap, and Echo. Delay can be
applied to input channels 1 to 24 and the stereo input channel.
When channels are configured as a stereo pair using the Pair function (Stereo Pairs on
page 114), the channel delays of the two channels work together, and parameter adjust-
ments can be made with either channel selected. You cannot set different parameters for
the odd and even channels.
1. Use the [DELAY/ ] button to locate the CH Delay page shown below.
2. Use the [SEL] and [MIXING LAYER] buttons to select a channel. See Mix-
ing Layer on page 31 for more information.
3. Use the cursor buttons to select the delay parameters and the [ENTER]
button and PARAMETER wheel to set them.
If you are using a mouse, simply click the switches and drag the rotary controls.
ON/OFF —This switch is used to turn on and off the delay. When the cursor is located
within the PARAMETER window, the [ENTER] button can be used to turn on and off
the delay without having to select the ON/OFF switch.
TYPE —These switches are used to select the type of delay: DELAY, SLAP, or ECHO.
The echo parameters are reset when the type of delay is changed.
PARAMETER —The controls in this window are delay parameter controls. The num-
ber of controls available depends on type of delay selected.

MIX LEVEL

When the type of delay is changed from Delay to either Slap or Echo, the parameters
are set as follows: Delay = 172 ms, Mix = 50%, Feedback = 18%. When the type is
changed from Slap or Echo to Delay, the parameters are set as follows: Delay = 0 ms,
Mix = 0%, Feedback = 0%.

Description
Delay can be specified in either seconds or sam-
DELAY
ples. The actual delay in seconds depends on the
SLAP
9,600 samples
sampling rate. The maximum delay is 217.7 milli-
ECHO
seconds at a sampling rate of 44.1 kHz, and 200.0
milliseconds at a sampling rate of 48 kHz.
Determines the level of delayed signal. 0 is no
SLAP
delay. +50 is a 50:100 mix of delayed and dry sig-
–100 to +100
ECHO
nals. +100 is a 100:100 mix. Negative values are
the same except the delayed signal is inverted.
Determines how much of the delayed signal is fed
back into the delay. 0 is no feedback. +99 is maxi-
ECHO
–99 to +99
mum feedback. Negative values are the same
except the feedback signal is inverted.
