ULTRATAP DELAY 💎

ULTRATAP DELAY - Korg SDD-3000

ULTRATAP DELAY is inspired by the Korg SDD-3000 digital delay and provides flexible and straightforward control over each sound repetition. TIME sets the delay time from 1 to 2000 milliseconds. FACTOR multiplies the delay TIME by set values. PRE DELAY offsets all the repetitions by 0 to 500 milliseconds in relation to the dry signal.

The number of repetitions is set with the REPEATS knob, which ranges from 1 to 16. Each repetition is represented in the graph on the top right-hand corner. The x-axis represents the time, while the y-axis represents the position in the stereo field. Positive values on the y-axis correspond to signals left of the center in the stereo field. Negative values on the y-axis correspond to signals right of the center in the stereo field.

There are four panning patterns for the repetitions:

• MOVE: the panning moves in a linear way from one side to the other.
• JUMP: the panning alternates from hard left to hard right or vice versa.
• FOCUS: the repetitions start from hard left or right panning and alternate while the panning is progressively reduced until reaching the center.
• SPREAD: opposite of focus. The repetitions start panned center and alternate left and right while the panning progressively widens until reaching hard left and right. Note that there must be three or more repetitions for a stereo effect to be achieved. The first two repetitions in SPREAD mode will always be panned center.

When the WIDTH knob is set to 0%, all repetitions will be panned center. When set to 100%, the first repetition is panned hard left (or the last repetition in SPREAD mode). When set to -100%, the first repetition is panned hard right (or the last repetition in SPREAD mode).

SLOPE attenuates the repetitions. When set to -6 dB, the last repetition will be 6 dB quieter than the first one. When set to 6 dB, the first repetition will be 6 dB quieter than the last one. The attenuation is applied in a linear way to each repetition. The quieter a repetition is, the duller the yellow square that represents it in the graph.

DIFFUSION emulates the sound of early reflections instead of the direct sound. Low and high-cut filters are also available.
