Stereo Delay
Stereo delay operates similarly to Mono delay only in true stereo.
The maximum delay time is half that available to Mono delay.

A. Delay Time
This is the amount of time that the delay waits
before regenerating the sound.
Range:
before regenerating the sound.
Range:
1 ms – 340 ms, or x1 (quarter
note) – x16 (64
th
note) when Sync is set to
“follow tempo”
Note: Quarter note delays at 120 BPM (or slower) cannot be
heard because the delay is greater than 340 ms.
heard because the delay is greater than 340 ms.
B. Regeneration Percentage
This is the volume of every regeneration relative to
the volume of the regeneration that preceded it. At
zero, a “slapback” effect occurs–the original signal is
repeated just once.
Range:
the volume of the regeneration that preceded it. At
zero, a “slapback” effect occurs–the original signal is
repeated just once.
Range:
0 – 100%
C. Brightness
As the delayed signal decays over time, it is often
advantageous to “darken” the sound by
progressively removing more and more high
frequencies with each regeneration. 100%
represents no reduction in brightness.
Range:
advantageous to “darken” the sound by
progressively removing more and more high
frequencies with each regeneration. 100%
represents no reduction in brightness.
Range:
0 – 100%
D. Sync
The delay can either follow the Micron’s tempo or
can occur according to a fixed number of
milliseconds. When “follow tempo” is selected, the
Delay Time parameter is displayed as a multiple of
the Tempo.
Range:
can occur according to a fixed number of
milliseconds. When “follow tempo” is selected, the
Delay Time parameter is displayed as a multiple of
the Tempo.
Range:
fixed time, follow tempo
