Multi-Tap Delay - DigiDesign DigiRack Plug-ins Manual

Multi-Tap Delay

The Multi-Tap Delay adds up to four indepen-
dently-controllable delays or taps to the original
audio signal. Use the Multi-tap delay to add spa-
tialization or complex rhythmic echo effects to
audio material. You can individually control the
delay time and number of repetitions of each of
the four taps.
The Multi-Tap Delay plug-in was formerly
called D-fx Multi-Tap Delay. It is fully
compatible with all settings and presets cre-
ated for D-fx Multi-Tap Delay.

Gain The Gain slider for each of the Multi-Tap
delay's four delay lines controls the input level
of that individual delay tap. Adjust Gain to pre-
vent clipping or increase the level of the pro-
cessed signal.
Selecting the Sum Input button sums the dry in-
put signals (mono or stereo) before processing
them. The dry signal then appears in the center
of the stereo field and the wet, effected signal
will be output in stereo.
Feedback Controls the amount of feedback ap-
plied from the output of the delay into its input.
It also controls the number of repetitions of the
delayed signal. For the feedback feature to func-
tion, the Gain slider must be raised above its
lowest setting.
Pan The pan sliders for each of the four taps con-
trol their apparent location in the stereo field.
Delay Sets the delay time between the original
signal and the delayed signal. The higher the
setting, the longer the delay. This control is ad-
justable from 0–1500 milliseconds (1.5 sec-
onds).
Mix Adjusts the balance between the effected
signal and the original signal and controls the
depth of the effect. Mix is adjustable from 0% to
100%.
Selecting Audio for Processing with
AudioSuite Delay
Because Multi-Tap Delay adds additional mate-
rial to the end of selected audio (a delay tap),
make a selection that is longer than the original
source material so AudioSuite Delay can write it
into the audio file.
Select only the original material, without leav-
ing additional space at the end, will produce a
delay that occurs after the end of the region will
be cut off.
