Delay Section

Abstract

REPLIKA's Delay section enables you to control the general aspects of your delay sound, including parameters like Delay Time, Feedback, and Mix.

The Delay section allows to you control the general aspects of your delay sound, including parameters like Delay Time, Feedback, and Mix.

REPLIKA can be configured as a basic stereo echo, a wide stereo echo, or a ping-pong echo using the Stereo Mode switch.

  1. Time: Adjusts the delay time. Depending on the selected Time mode, the delay time is either synchronized to the tempo of the DAW and set in note divisions, or freely adjusted in milliseconds.

    Note

    The maximum delay time is 4000 ms, which can be achieved by settings a synchronized delay time of 2/1 at a tempo of 120 BPM. Slower tempos will limit the maximum delay time accordingly, which is reflected visually by the range of the Time control.

  2. Time mode: Selects between four modes that determine the behavior of the Time control. You can select the mode by clicking on the left and right arrows next to the mode name, or show the TIME menu in the display by clicking on the mode name. The following modes are available:

    • ms: The delay time can bee freely adjusted in milliseconds.

    • Straight: The delay time can be adjusted in even note divisions (1/16, 1/8, 1/4, etc.) relative to the tempo of the Metronome.

    • Dotted: The delay time can be adjusted in dotted note divisions (1/16d, 1/8d, 1/4d, etc.) relative to the tempo of the Metronome.

    • Triplets: The delay time can be adjusted in triplet note divisions (1/16t, 1/8t, 1/4t, etc.) relative to the tempo of the Metronome.

  3. Feedback: Adjusts the level of the signal that is being fed back to the delay's input. Increasing the feedback level creates more delay repeats that decay over time. Feedback levels of 100% and above are possible, allowing the delay repeats to build up until the point of self-oscillation.

  4. Stereo Mode: Switches between three modes that determine the stereo image of the echo effect.

    • Normal: Basic stereo echo with simultaneous delay taps on the left and right channel.

    • Wide: Wide stereo echo with a slight timing offset between delay taps on the left and right channel.

    • Ping Pong: Ping-pong stereo echo with alternating delay taps on the left and right channel.

  5. Mix: Blends between the input signal and the effect signal by means of an equal-power crossfade.
