0.02ms at 44.1kHz, even less at higher sampl<strong>in</strong>g rates) at that po<strong>in</strong>t <strong>in</strong> the<br />

structure. We assume you won’t notice if your delay time is 0.02ms off the<br />

specified value.<br />

Let’s get back to our structure, which now can produce a series of decay<strong>in</strong>g<br />

echoes. It is already a decent digital echo, but we want to show you a feature<br />

of the library that you can use as a trick to make your structure smaller.<br />

Among the audio amplifiers are amplifiers called “Cha<strong>in</strong>”. These amplifiers are<br />

capable of amplify<strong>in</strong>g a given signal and mix<strong>in</strong>g it with another, cha<strong>in</strong>ed signal.<br />

One of them is the Audio Mix-Amp > Cha<strong>in</strong>(amount) amplifier, which works<br />

similarly to the Amount amplifier except that it also does cha<strong>in</strong>ed mix<strong>in</strong>g:<br />

The signal at the second <strong>in</strong>put of this module will be attenuated accord<strong>in</strong>g to<br />

the amount given at the A <strong>in</strong>put and mixed with the signal at the cha<strong>in</strong> (>>)<br />

<strong>in</strong>put. The signal at the cha<strong>in</strong> <strong>in</strong>put is not attenuated. Such amplifiers can<br />

be used to build mix<strong>in</strong>g cha<strong>in</strong>s, where the >> port connections constitute a<br />

mix<strong>in</strong>g bus:<br />

In our case we don’t need a mix<strong>in</strong>g bus, but we can use this module to replace<br />

both our Audio Mix and Amount modules. The fed back signal will be<br />

attenuated by the amount specified by the Fbk <strong>in</strong>put and mixed to the <strong>in</strong>put<br />

signal exactly as it was before:<br />

Congratulations, you have built a simple digital-echo effect. The next step is<br />

to add some tape feel to it.<br />
