switches
1 Set the Effect selector switch to DELAY.
2 Set the Effect CH. SELECT switch to 2.
÷ The Effect parameter/BPM display LED “2” will light.
÷ The BPM of the music input to CH-2 will be displayed
on the AUTO BPM COUNTER.
* The BPM band that matches the music on CH-2 can be
selected with the BPM counter range selector switch.
* The counter will flash if BPM cannot be counted for
more than 2 seconds. In this case, use manual mode to
make settings (see page 19).
3 Set the parameter value.
When the H.P CUE switch (in the BEAT EFFECTS
controls) is pressed, the effect can be confirmed by
listening to the headphones output.
Setting the Delay Time
÷ Setting the delay time to match one beat of the BPM
displayed on the AUTO BPM COUNTER makes effect
application more effective.
÷ By pressing the Effect beat selector switch (@ or #),
delay time of 1/4 to 8/1 can be set for one beat of the
counted BPM.
÷ More precise delay times can be set with the Effect
PARAMETER 1 control (TIME).
÷ As “1/2” will light on the beat display if delay time is set
to 1/2 of one beat of the BPM, the parameter value can
be set using the beat display as a guide.
Setting to Balance Original and Delayed Sound Levels
÷ The balance between original and delayed sound levels
is set using the Effect PARAMETER 2 control (LEVEL/
DEPTH). Turning this control to the left will decrease
delayed sound and turning it to the right will increase it.
4 Turn on the Effect ON/OFF switch.
÷ The Effect ON/OFF switch will flash orange, and the
delay effect will be applied to master output.
÷ If the switch is pressed once more, the effect will be
turned off.
* If it is turned on in time to the beat, the effect’s cycle
will also start on the beat.
Echo, auto pan, auto trans, filter, flanger can also be set
similarly.
Precautions:
÷ If the channel has been changed with the Effect CH.
SELECT switch when delay, echo, reverb (pages 16 and
17) and similar effects have been turned on, all of the
reverberation of the prior channel’s effects will be output.
÷ Only operate the Effect selector switch when effects are
off (when the Effect ON/OFF switch is lit orange).
Operating it with effects on could generate noise.
÷ Display where a 1/2-beat delay (250mSec) has been set to
music with a BPM of 120 (time conversion: 500mSec).
