FX2 Effects
The Effects 2 module provides six different delay and
reverberation effects. You can choose to use any one of these
effects.
Mono Delay
Delay takes the original signal, waits a specified period of time, and
then plays it back, over and over.
Mono delay sums the Micron’s input to mono before applying the
delay effect. The result is a less complex but more “focused”
sound.
Mono delay allows for a maximum delay time that is twice as long
as that used by stereo delay and L/R delay.
A. Delay Time
This is the amount of time that the delay waits
before regenerating the sound.
Range: 1 ms – 680 ms, or x1 (quarter
note) – x16 (64 th note) when Sync is set to
“follow tempo”
B. Regeneration Percentage
This is the volume of every regeneration relative to
the volume of the regeneration that preceded it. At
zero, a “slapback” effect occurs–the original signal is
repeated just once.
Range: 0 – 100%
C. Brightness
As the delayed signal decays over time, it is often
advantageous to “darken” the sound by
progressively removing more and more high
frequencies with each regeneration. 100%
represents no reduction in brightness.
Range: 0 – 100%
D. Sync
The delay can either follow the Micron’s tempo or
can occur according to a fixed number of
milliseconds. When “follow tempo” is selected, the
Delay Time parameter is displayed as a multiple of
the Tempo.
Range: fixed time, follow tempo
