disconnect the output of the delay cell from the input of the feedback cell, with
the inserted signal now going directly to the feedback gain cell.
One use for this is to insert an effect – or even another delay unit (yes,
they can be daisy-chained quite effectively) – into the feedback loop. To do
this, patch the Delay out into the desired effect, and the output of the effect into
the Insert jack. You may need to adjust the Insert level control (see above) for
best sound.
Clean: A buffered and inverted copy of the input signal.
Delay: The buffered & scaled output of the delay cell
Mix: A linear mix of the Clean and Delay signals, the balance of which
is set by the Mix control pot.
fi g.3
Insert in: Equivalent to using the Insert jack, but without breaking signal path.
Chained signal is summed with output of Delay and Insert, then sent through the
feedback gain cell before entering the delay circuit, allowing signal attenuation.
During development, it was noticed that overdriving the delay input of
the second Sound of Shadows resulted in some delightfully horrifi c mangling,
screeching, and generally cacophanous sounds. However, it could not be the
default because it also drove the output up to ±10V, risking damage to connected
modules. This trimmer is the compromise.
Want a dangerous, horrendous, mess? Turn it all the way down (counter-
clockwise). Want a safe, factory-friendly setting? Turn it all the way up (clockwise).
In between? Put it where you want it. To repeat, however, and in offi cially-legal-
sounding words
WARNING: USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. USE OF THIS FEATURE WILL CAUSE
OUTPUT LEVELS THAT ARE NOT COMPATIBLE WITH EURORACK STANDARDS
AND WILL DAMAGE SOME MODULES, AND MAY DAMAGE THE REST. FLIGHT

Chaining Header
The rear header is to chain two or more SoS together
for longer delay times, and other effects, without using up
the front jacks. There is one output and two possible inputs
(See fi g.1 for graphical locations of the connection points.):
Delay out: Buffered, inverted, delay signal output.
Delay In: Equivalent to the Input jack. Chained signal
is summed with input signal and sent directly to delay cell
with no attenuation (see following Chaining Delay Trimmer
section).
