LEXICON FX > DELAYS & MODULATION
Delays repeat a sound a short time after it first occurs. Delay becomes echo when the output is fed
back into the input (feedback). This turns a single repeat into a series of repeats, each a little softer
than the last.
Modulation effects use a low frequency oscillator to vary frequency, amplitude, and filter parameters
over time.
SLAP (KARAOKE)
Slap echo is a distinctive vocal echo effect heard in classic Rock n Roll, Rockabilly, and other 'classic' genres, hence
its popularity in Karaoke!

DELAY (2 SEC)
Basic delay algorithm with up to two seconds delay time.

DELAY MOD
The modulated delay is enhanced by an LFO (low frequency oscillator) that produces a chorusing effect on the
delay repeats. This is a great delay for guitar and instrument passages that need that "special something."

TAPE
In the days before digital, tape echoes were created using a special tape recorder in which the magnetic recording
tape was looped, with closely-spaced recording and playback heads. The delay effect was created by the tape
moving in the space between the record and playback heads – while delay time was adjusted by changing the
speed of the tape loop. Although very musical-sounding, wow and flutter combined with a significant loss of high
frequencies, and to some extent also low frequencies, are all elements commonly associated with tape echo.
