54: LONG TIME CTRL DELAY
A delay in which the delay time can be varied smoothly, and
allowing an extended delay to be produced.

55: TAPE ECHO
A virtual tape echo that produces a realistic tape delay sound. This
simulates the tape echo section of a Roland RE-201 Space Echo.

Explanation
Adjusts the time until the delay is heard.
Adjusts the time over which the Delay
Time changes from the current setting to
a specified new setting.
The rate of change for the Delay Time
directly affects the rate of pitch
change.
Adjusts the amount of the delay that's
fed back into the effect. Negative (-) set-
tings invert the phase.
Adjusts the frequency above which
sound fed back to the effect is filtered
out. If you do not want to filter out any
high frequencies, set this parameter to
BYPASS.

Explanation
Combination of playback heads to use
Select from three different heads with
different delay times.
S: short M: middle L: long
Tape speed
Increasing this value will shorten the
spacing of the delayed sounds.
Amount of delay repeats
Boost/cut for the lower range of the echo
sound
Boost/cut for the upper range of the echo
sound
Independent panning for the short, mid-
dle, and long playback heads
Amount of tape-dependent distortion to
be added
This simulates the slight tonal changes
that can be detected by signal-analysis
equipment. Increasing this value will
increase the distortion.

56: LOFI NOISE
In addition to a Lo-Fi effect, this adds various types of noise such as
white noise and disc noise.

Explanation
Degrades the sound quality. The sound
quality grows poorer as this value is in-
creased.
Type of filter
OFF: no filter is used
LPF: cuts the frequency range above
the Cutoff
HPF: cuts the frequency range below
the Cutoff
Center frequency of the filter
Switch between white noise and pink
noise.
Center frequency of the low pass filter
applied to the white/pink noise (BY-
PASS: no cut)
Volume of the white/pink noise
Type of record noise
The frequency at which the noise is
heard depends on the selected type.
Adjusts the cutoff frequency of the low
pass filter applied to the record noise. If
you don't want to filter out any high fre-
quencies, set this parameter to BYPASS.
