06 EZ Delay
Delay (EZ Delay)
This digital delay can be switched between stereo, mono,
and alternate settings, and the delay time can be
synchronized with a song's tempo. It features a maximum
delay of 1200 msec (1.2 seconds).
Mode
This switches stereo, monaural, or alternate.
Value Explanation
Mono This is a single-input, dual-output delay. Stereo
sound (left and right) are mixed before being input.
Stereo This is a dual-input, dual-output delay. The delay
sound output features the same stereo placement
as that of the input.
Alt The left and right delay sound output alternately.
Delay Time
Value: 1–1200 msec
Sets the delay time, that is, the elapsed time between
the source sound and the delay sound. When in mono or
stereo mode, the settings value is limited by the left-right
shift settings. In alternate mode, this is limited to 0–600
msec.
When Tempo Sync (explained below) is active, this
setting is not effective, and you cannot make this setting.
L-R Shift
Value: L1199–R1199 msec
Of the delayed sounds on the left and right, the delay
time is increased on only one side, shifting expression of
the sound. Depending on the time setting, settings
values may be limited.
• This is disabled in alternate mode, and you cannot make its
setting.
Tempo Sync
Value: OFF, , , , ,
,
Set this when synchronizing the delay time to the song
tempo. When you select the note, the delay time is set to
match the length of the note. When not synchronizing,
turn this off.
• If the set note length is longer (or shorter) than the possible
range of delay time settings, the delay time can not
correspond to the note length. If "?" appears before the
note symbol you set, it is because the upper (or lower) limit
of the setting range has been exceeded, and that the
synchronization is not correct. Furthermore, the precision
of the delay time and song tempo differ. If left to develop
over long periods, the two may drift apart.
L-R Order
In alternate mode, this setting determines which of the
left or right sides has the delay sound before the other.
Value Explanation
L>>R the left side is expressed first.
L<<R the right side is expressed first.
• This is disabled in alternate mode, and you cannot make its
setting.
Effect Level
Value: 0–100
Sets the volume of the delay sound. Lower it to get a
balance with the direct level.
Low Damp Freq
Value: 50–4000 Hz
Sets the upper frequency limit of the range to be damped
by "Low Damp." The Low Damp function damps the low
frequency band of the delay sound quicker than other
bands, which makes for a clearer delay effect.
Low Damp Gain
Value: -36–0 dB
Sets the degree of the Low Damp.
High Damp Freq
Value: 1 kHz–20 kHz
High Damp, by attenuating the higher frequencies first,
makes the delay sound more natural. Sets the lower
frequency limit of the range to be dampened.
