PA Electronic Reverb Control (320-1107) Operation Faxback Doc. # 32637 Your electronic reverb control has three basic controls - DELAY, REPEAT, and DEPTH. You can use these controls in different combinations to create many sound variations. DELAY The DELAY control changes the amount of time between the original sound and the delayed sound. You can vary this time from about 5 milliseconds (5/1000ths of a second) at a control setting of 0, to 95 milliseconds at a control setting of 10. REPEAT The REPEAT control varies the number of echoes created by the original signal. The number of echoes that you can create depends on the strength of the original signal. DEPTH The DEPTH control varies the strength of the delayed sound in relation to the original sound. For example, with DEPTH set to maximum (10), the strength of the delayed sound is almost equal to the original sound. With DEPTH set to minimum (0), you hear only the original sound. FAVORITE EFFECTS REVERBERATION You can reverberate (delay) sounds to simulate the live sound of a large auditorium by using a short-to-moderate delay time (DELAY control setting of 3-6). ECHO The echo effect is a sound that is repeated at specific intervals with each repetition diminishing in volume. You can echo sounds by using a relatively long delay time (DELAY control setting near 10). You can also vary the REPEAT and DEPTH settings to achieve the desired effect. FLANGING You can flange (distort) sounds by using a relatively short delay time (DELAY control setting 0 to 4) while varying the DEPTH control from minimum to maximum. Set REPEAT to 0. NOTE: The flange effect was originally achieved by applying amounts of hand pressure to the flange of a tape reel during recording or playback. DOUBLING You can double sounds to create an effect similar to overdubbing or recording one sound on top of another, by using a short-to-moderate delay time (DELAY control setting of 3 to 7). Set REPEAT at 0, and the DEPTH control at high (8 to 10) and keep it constant. SLAP-BACK The slap-back effect (similar to an echo) is a sound that is repeated once and the volume is not diminished. You can slap-back (repeat) sound to create an effect similar to the sharp, hollow echo of a chamber. Slap-back uses a DELAY control setting of 60-80 milliseconds (a setting of about 8). You can vary the REPEAT and DEPTH controls to enhance this effect. (LB/all-05/09/96)
