Delay

Delay Device

Essentials

Delay is a digital delay effect that plays back incoming audio with a defined delay time. Creates rhythmic repeats and echoes with tempo sync, feedback, and wet/dry controls. Use it for rhythmic patterns, spatial depth, or subtle thickening of sounds.

  • Tempo-synced delay for rhythmic patterns

  • Feedback and wet/dry controls

  • Rhythmic repeats and echoes

  • Spatial effects and subtle thickening

  • Perfect for synths, drums, vocals, and more

Controls

On/Off

Activates or bypasses the delay effect

Delay time

Time between repeats (quantized to musical values). Step count × step length determines effective delay time.

Steps

Count of delay steps (1-7). Combined with step length to set total delay time.

Step length

Length of each delay step: 1/16 bars, 1/8T bars, or 1/8 bars

F.Back

Feedback amount (0-100%). How much of the delayed signal is fed back into the delay line. Higher values create more repeats.

Mix

Balance between dry and wet signals (0-100%). 0 = 100% dry (no effect), 100% = 100% wet (full effect).

Practical Tips

Practical Tips

  • Start with 1/4 or 1/8 for common grooves.

  • Avoid clutter in dense mixes.

  • A 50/50 mix adds space without overwhelming.
