PRECAUTIONS NOTE: IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU READ THIS SECTION TO PROVIDE YEARS OF TROUBLE FREE USE. All warnings on this equipment and in the operating instructions should be adhered to and all operating instructions should be followed. [. . . ] This causes the delayed signals to bounce back and forth from the left channel to the right (provided the delay outputs are panned left and right). The 2-Tap delay type provides a single long delay line with two outputs and offers twice the delay time of the Stereo delay type. DELAY PARAMETERS Delay This parameter determines whether the Delay section is active (passing a signal) or muted (not passing a signal). Mute Type This parameter allows for muting of the Delay section at its input (Pre), its output (Post) or both. Muting the input (Pre) of the Delay restricts any signal from entering the delay section until the delay is switched in. When using a moderate amount of regeneration, switching out the delay with the input muted will generate a non-delayed signal which will play over the decaying regenerated signal which continues on after the delay is switched out. Muting the output (Post) of the delay results in the delayed signal being immediately turned off when the delay is switched out. This means that delays and regeneration will not continue once the delay is switched out. If the output were not muted, signals input before switching the delay out would be allowed to regenerate - even after switching out the delay. It is also possible to mute both the input and output (Both) so that no signal enters or exits the Delay section when it is not switched in. Level 1 and Level 2 These are individual level controls for each of the two delays available in the Delay section. These are not the same as the Delay Level parameter found in the Mixer function (which adjusts the overall level of both delay signals). 15 Pan 1 and Pan 2 This allows for the panning of each delay to the left or right output, if desired. The Pan parameter is adjustable from 0 to 100 - where 0 = full left, 100 = full right and 50 = center. Dly Time 1 and Dly Time 2 These parameters determine the amount of time after a signal is input that the delayed signal will begin to reproduce the input signal. Regen 1 and Regen 2 This parameter is provided for each delay and determines the number of times the delayed signal will repeat itself. This is achieved by feeding the delayed output back into the input. Higher levels of regeneration will result in more repeats. D Type The Delay Type parameter determines whether the Stereo, Ping-Pong or 2-Tap delay type is currently active. Dl Hf Damp Delay High Frequency Damping determines the amount of high frequency content in the delayed and regenerated signals. Higher amounts of damping will result in less high frequency information in the delayed signal. 16 D. DUCKER SECTION The process of Ducking enables the user to suppress the level of a given signal or effect dynamically, dependent upon the presence of another signal which is desired to be prominent. The Ducking feature of the Intellifex LTD works in conjunction with the Delay and Reverb sections to attenuate the delay and/or reverb level while a phrase is being played (resulting in a less cluttered, more intelligible sound), yet return each to its original level when the phrase ends - thus allowing for the full decay of the delayed and/or reverberated signal. DUCKER PARAMETERS Ducker In the HUSH; Delay; Ducker configuration, this parameter determines whether the Ducker is off or on. In the HUSH; Chorus; Delay; Reverb and HUSH; Pitch Shift; Delay; Reverb configurations, this parameter determines whether the Ducker is either (A) off, (B) operating on the delay, (C) operating on the reverb, or (D) operating on both the delay and reverb. Sensitivity This parameter determines the threshold point above which the ducker will begin attenuating the delay and/or reverb signal. Until the input signal reaches this level, the delay/reverb signal will not be affected. Attenuation This parameter determines how much the delayed signal is attenuated (muted). [. . . ] This message also appears if a knob is turned or a button is pressed during reception. This message also appears if System Exclusive strings are sent too fast, without a long enough pause between strings. "DUMP ERROR" - This message will appear if MIDI Data is received at the MIDI IN while dumping is in progress. "XMEM ERROR" - This message will appear if received data can not be verified after it is stored. 53 E. [. . . ]
