Delay

Delay is an Audio effect.

The sound comes back a Time later, and each repeat goes round again through a low pass until it falls silent. The repeats ring on past the end of the layer’s sound.

  • Time: how far behind the sound the first repeat lands, in milliseconds.
  • Note: the beat division the repeat would land on. It does nothing yet.
  • Sync: 1 would follow the beat grid instead of Time. It does nothing yet.
  • Feedback: how much of each repeat goes round again.
  • Damping: where the low pass in the feedback sits, in Hz.
  • Ping-pong: how much of one channel’s return crosses into the other. At 100 the repeats walk left, right, left.
  • Wet: how much of the output is repeats.
