Delay parameters

Use the parameters in the Delay part of the Tone-

Print Editor window to configure the delay effect.

Delay Time parameter

Parameter range: 0 to 7000 ms

Use the Delay Time parameter to set the time be-

tween delay repetitions. This is also known as the

“length” of the delay.

Feedback parameter

Parameter range: 0 to 120 %

Use the Feedback parameter to define the amount

of the signal that is fed back from the delay mod-

ule’s output to its input. This parameter defines

how many repetitions of the original signal the

delay will create.

Please use high settings with extreme caution.

Due to the Spillover feature, there is no way to

immediately cut off the delay when you get an

internal feedback at settings above 100 %. This

means that the delays will increase in volume

until there is severe distortion. If this occurs, you

will need to reduce feedback by turning down the

knob assigned to the Feedback parameter, or by

simply turning off the effect until things have set-

tled down again.

Saturation parameter

Parameter range: 0 to 24 dB

Use the Saturation parameter to add a bit of

signal saturation to your delays. This is recom-

mended if you want to add a touch of “grit” to a

TonePrint.

Using saturation will bring you closer to the sonic

qualities of old school analog or tape delay units

with the slight distortion that occurs when driven a

bit harder. The saturation of the delayed signal is

similar to playing through a cranked-up amp. Hit-

ting the strings harder will give you a more over-

driven delay sound than playing softly.

FB HiCut (Feedback

High-Cut) parameter

Parameter range: 20 Hz to 20 kHz

Use the FB HiCut (Feedback High-Cut) param-

eter to attenuate the frequencies over the set fre-

quency for the delayed signal, resulting in a more

“analog” sound that in many cases that will blend

in better with the overall sound.

With digital technology, every delay can be a

precise reproduction of the input signal. But es-

pecially with long delay times, this is not always

desirable, as these pristine delays may disturb

the original signal, resulting in a “washed-out”

sound. To compensate for this, use the high-cut

filter, thereby emulating analog or tape style de-

lay units.

FB LoCut (Feedback

Low-Cut) parameter

Parameter range: 20 Hz to 20 kHz

Use the FB LoCut (Feedback Low-Cut) param-

eter to attenuate the frequencies below the set

frequency.

As with the Feedback High-Cut parameter, the

delays may blend in more nicely with the overall

sound if you “thin out” the effect at the low end.

Output Level parameter

Parameter range: -100 to 0 dB

Use the Output Level parameter to set the overall

output level for the delay effect.

Dynamic Delay

Sensitivity parameter

Parameter range: -50 to 0 dB

The Dynamic Delay is a feature that was initially

introduced in the well-recognized TC 2290. It al-

lows the dynamics of the input signal’s level to

actively alter the delay output level, leaving the

source signal clear and undisturbed while you

play. The Dynamic Delay delicately complements

your performance.

Use the Dynamic Delay Sensitivity parameter to

set a “level limit”. If what you are playing is louder

than this setting, it will dampen the level of the

delay. If what you are playing is softer than this

setting, the delay will be audible.
