tape playback speed in realtime by manipulating the tape capstan motor and
therefore has a musically useful "ramp-up" and "ramp-down" effect.
When Tempo Sync is enabled, this control is quantized to allow only rhythmic
notes available at the leading head.
Intensity
The self-oscillation of the RE-201 is one of the magic features that really makes
it more than a mixing tool; it's also an instrument to be played. The effect may
be used subtly, sending the unit into gentle oscillation on held notes, or can
be put into "over the top" oscillation with extreme intensity settings. Different
Modes will reveal different qualities of oscillation. Single head Modes tend to
have simpler oscillation qualities, while multiple head modes will have a more
complex sound when oscillating.
The RE-201's oscillation qualities are heavily program and control depen-
dent. Different sources of audio, gain, tone, repeat rate, and tape settings will
all effect "oscillation performance." The RE-201 can also achieve oscillation
with no signal, making the RE-201 a truly unique instrument.
Echo Volume
UAD Powered Plug-Ins Manual
This knob controls the time interval of the echo effect. Rotating
the control clockwise will decrease the delay time, and counter-
clockwise rotation will increase the delay time.
The available delay times are as follows:

This knob controls the repeat level (feedback) of the echo signal.
Rotating the control clockwise increases the number of echoes.
Higher values will cause self-oscillation; the exact position is
program and Mode dependent.
This control determines the volume of the echo effect. Ro-
tate the control clockwise for louder echo. Reducing the
control to its minimum value will disable the echo.
