Maximum delay time is 1 second. The combination of longer synced delay
times with slower tempos can result in delay times that would be greater than 1
second. When that happens, the delay time is divided by 2 until it no longer exceeds
the 1 second limit. For example, if the BPM is set to 60 and Delay Time (Parameter 1)
is set to Half, the expected delay time would be 2 seconds. The actual delay time will
be 1 second (i.e. 2 seconds divided by 2).

To recreate a classic bucket-brigade time-shifting effect, try adjusting the delay
time parameter in real time.
The ring modulator's mode of operation is determined by Parameter 2, (pitch
tracking) which can be set to either
on
tor functions like the original Oberheim unit. In this mode, pitch tracking is off, and
Parameter 1 sets the modulation frequency, which remains the same regardless of
what note you play on the keyboard. With parameter 2 on, the ring modulator tracks
the pitch of the lowest note that you play on the keyboard. In this case the Parameter
1 sets a ratio between the lowest note that you play and the modulator note (instead of
setting a fixed frequency). The modulation frequency will then change as you change
the lowest note that you're playing, so that the ratio will remain constant between
the note that you play and note of the modulator. If you are only playing one note at
a time, then the ring modulator will modulate with the same ratio as you play up and
down the keyboard. Set Parameter 2 to the "on" position to get more musical results.
