Delay - Alesis QS6.1 Reference Manual

[90] — D
ELAY
The Delay function is used to edit Delay parameters. The QS6.1Õs effects processor
has three different Delay types available.
Note: Some Configurations only have a mono Delay on some Sends, and when this is
the case the Delay Type parameter will be unavailable. Instead, the parameters
normally found on page 2 of the Delay function are shown in page 1, and the other
pages also drop by one number (please refer to next section for a description of those
parameters). The exceptions to this are the Mono Delays on Send 4 of Configurations
1 and 3, and the Mono Delay on Send 1 of Configuration #2. These Delays have no
Input Balance parameter (they donÕt need them), so all of their parameters are offset
by 2 instead of by 1 (Delay Time is found on pages 1 and 2, instead of pages 3 and 4.
Feedback is found on page 3, not page 5).
DELAY TYPE
Range of Settings: (see below)
Ping-Pong. This is called a ÒPing Pong DelayÓ because the output bounces from side
to side (left to right) in stereo with the speed determined by the delay time. The
maximum delay time is 399 milliseconds.
Stereo Delay. The Stereo Delay is actually two separate delays, which can be
individually varied. The maximum delay time for each delay is 399 ms.
Mono. The Mono Delay has the advantage of twice the available delay time, or 799
ms in Configuration #1, 1199 ms in Configuration #2.
In Pages 2 through 5 of the Delay Function you will find the remaining parameters for the
Delay function. If the Stereo Delay type is selected, youÕll be able to select an additional set of
pages (6 Ð 8) with the [PAGE] buttons. The extra pages are due to the fact that the Stereo
Delay type has parameters for both the Left and Right channels.
INPUT
Range of Settings: <99 to <0> to 99>
This parameter is used to balance the Delay Input between the signal coming from
the Pitch effect output (if applicable in the selected Configuration) and the dry effect
send.
TIME
Range of Settings: 0 to 1199ms
This is the actual Delay time, which determines the amount of time the input signal
will be delayed. The Stereo and Ping Pong Delay types can have a delay time of up to
399ms. However, the Mono Delay can have up to 799ms per channel (1199 ms in
Configuration #2). Use Page 3 to adjust the delay time in 10 ms intervals; use page 4
to adjust the delay time in 1 ms intervals. When using the Stereo Delay, pages 3 & 4
let you adjust the delay time of the left channel, while pages 6 & 7 let you adjust the
same for the right channel.
