  • Page 2: Welcome

    Welcome! Thank you for purchasing Relapse. Relapse is an innovative take on the traditional tape-delay concept. It offers three fully- featured delay modules, per-band frequency shifters, tape saturators, and multimode filters. Add to this our now standard collection of neutral cross-overs, stereo LFOs, envelope followers and M/S mixing, and the possibilities become endless.

    Loading and saving patches Loading and saving patches in Relapse is done in the same way as with any other Reason device. See “Loading patches” and “Saving patches” in the Reason Operation Manual for further information. Controls and displays 1. CROSSOVER (X-OVER) 1.1.

    2.1. Band On/Off — Toggles the band on or off. This only applies to the Lo and Hi bands, as the Mid band is always active. If either the Hi or Lo bands are turned off, then Relapse functions as a dual-band effect. If they are both switched off, it acts as a single-band effect.

    DELAY 3. BAND Relapse’s three fully-featured delays make creating any kind of delay easy. We give you full control over both the Left and the Right delay times, or allow you to conveniently link the two together, for a simple mono delay effect. We also provide you with separate...

  • Page 7: Band Fx

    Equal resolves this. BAND FX Relapse’s FX modules provide you with a suite of powerful tools to sculpt the sound of your delay line. On board is a bi-polar frequency shifter, and a multimode filter with five filter types and built-in saturation.
  • Page 8 4.1. Shift — A bi-polar knob which controls the amount of frequency shifting. If turned counterclockwise, or left, it will shift the frequency of both channels downwards. If turned clockwise, or right, it will shift the frequency of both channels upwards. Values range from -6kHz to 6kHz.

  • Page 9: Band Mix

    5. BAND MIX 5.1. Mix — Crossfades between the wet output from M/S and a completely dry audio signal. 5.2. Vol — Controls the volume level of the band’s output, allowing you to either attenuate it completely or boost it by up to 6 decibels. 5.3.

  • Page 10: Band Lfo

    LFO 6. BAND Relapse features a stereo LFO per band which can be assigned to modulate its Time, Feed, Shift and Freq parameters either positively or negatively, and independently of each other. With built-in Phase, Spin and Offset controls, a wide range of effects is possible which can greatly expand upon Relapse’s already powerful sound-sculpting capabilities.
  • Page 11 If the Mode button (5.5) is turned on, the knob is set to Spin mode. This works by offsetting the frequency of the right LFO relative to the left one, causing the modulation effect to “spin” around in the stereo field. 6.7.

  • Page 12: Envelope Follower (Env)

    Global Time. This signal can be “smoothed” using the Attack and Release controls. Used alone or in combination with Relapse’s per band LFOs, the Enveloper Follower greatly expands upon Relapse’s already powerful sound-sculpting capabilities.

  • Page 13: Global

    125ms, allowing you far more precision. 8.4. Master Time Mod Amounts — Controls the modulation amount of the master time by Relapse’s Env and LFO generators, as indicated by their color. Turning them counterclockwise, to the left, creates negative modulation, whereas turning them clockwise, to the right, creates positive modulation.

    9. OPTIONS 9.1. Routing — Controls the overall signal flow of the effect. X -> Delay — The audio input is split up and filtered according to the values of the crossover frequency controls. Each filtered signal is then fed into its corresponding band.
  • Page 15 the Hi band will be high-pass filtered at 2000 Hz, and the Mid band will be both high-pass filtered at 500 Hz and low-pass filtered at 2000 Hz. SERIAL — The crossover is deactivated and the individual bands are fed into each other serially in the following order: Low ->...
  • Page 16 the Mid band or High band, depending on the X-Over settings. In contrast, with Routing set to Serial, the feedback of all three bands will be fed back into the first, i.e., Low band. Generally, switching Global FB on will produce a richer, denser sound, but as always, we recommend experimentation! 9.3.
