DEPTH Control
This allows you to adjust the depth (relative volume) of the delay effect.
REPEATED HINT: If you add a DELAY to a program and you can't hear the effect,
make sure the BYPASS BUTTON (8) isn't engaged. If it is, the ORIGINAL VALUE
LED directly above it will be on and this means that everything in the "virtual FX loop"
(Modulation, Delay & Reverb) is, er, bypassed. So, in order to "bypass the bypass,"
press the BYPASS BUTTON, the LED will go out and all will be good in "virtual FX
loop" land!
7. R
EVERB
This allows you to use one of three (3) different reverb types.
TYPE Button
This enables you select one of the three Reverbs or bypass this section com-
pletely. The trio of Reverb types on offer here are:
SPRING: A model of the most popular spring reverb system used in guitar
amps.
ROOM: Emulates the natural reverberation that takes place in a medium
sized room/small hall.
PLATE: An unerringly accurate model of the plate reverb used in countless,
professional recording studios
DEPTH Control
This knob enables you to adjust the depth (level) of the chosen Reverb - from sub-
tle to cavernous!
REPEATED HINT...FOR THE THIRD AND LAST TIME! If you add REVERB to a
program and you can't hear the effect, make sure the BYPASS BUTTON (8) isn't
engaged. If it is, the ORIGINAL VALUE LED directly above it will be on and this
means that everything in the "virtual FX loop" (Modulation, Delay & Reverb) is, er,
bypassed. So, in order to "bypass the bypass," press the BYPASS BUTTON, the LED
will go out and all will be good in "virtual FX loop" land!
8. B
YPASS
BYPASS Button
Engaging this button will bypass the entire "virtual FX loop." How can I tell when
it's on, do I hear you ask? Easy. The ORIGINAL VALUE LED directly above it will
light up, and stay lit up. Why is this a useful function? Well, if you're editing a pro-
gram that is using MODULATION and/or DELAY and/or REVERB, and you want
to hear what it sounds like "dry"...all you do is hit this button. Man, that's a whole
lot easier and quicker than trying to switch one or more of those three Sections off
and then back on again! Try it if you don't believe me...
