Insert: This is the attenuator for the feedback loop insert jack. The jack is
situated between the delay cell output and the feedback cell input. The feedback
cell input is calibrated for the output of the delay cell, which is around 1.5V
maximum, and most standard signals inserted here will overload the feedback cell
unless attenuated, hence the Insert attenuator. Turn clockwise to increase the signal
level, counter-clockwise to attenuate.
When not using the Insert jack, it is recommended to keep this control turned
fully clockwise, to the maximum position. Otherwise, you are attenuating the output
of the delay cell, which will affect everything else further down the signal path.
Input: This is the input level control. Just like a volume knob – clockwise
increases level, counter-clockwise attenuates the signal level.
Mix: Um, yeah. Guess what this controls? The balance of the mixed signal
at the Mix output! Seriously, this controls the mix between the Clean and Delay
signals at the Mix jack, really!

Overview (cont.)
Rate: This controls the delay clock rate, which
in turn controls how fast the delay steps through
its memory array and thusly the amount of delay.
Clockwise rotation increases the rate (which
decreases
decreases the rate (which increases the delay time).
Feedback: Controls how much of the delayed
signal is fed back into the delay cell. Feedback is
what creates a reverberation or echo sound – multiple
repetitions of an acoustic event. Clockwise rotation
increases the amount fed back, and thus the number
of repeats, counter-clockwise decreases the amount.
The nominal operating area is between 6:00 and
9:00 during normal usage. More than this will set up
a self-propagating feedback cycle that will quickly
get out of hand.
