Pick up where you left off.
The Delay Line
How a delay splits a signal into a dry original and a wet repeat, and why the size of the gap between them decides whether you hear thickening, a slap, or a distinct echo.
Feedback, Slapback & Tape
How feedback turns one repeat into a decaying chain, the parameter recipe for a classic slapback, and why old tape echoes darken with every pass.
Timed Delay & the Maths
The 60,000 ÷ BPM formula that locks a delay's repeats to the song's tempo, and the dotted and triplet multipliers that shift a note value off the beat.
Stereo Delay & ADT
How a ping-pong delay bounces repeats across the stereo field, how pan and EQ shape where repeats sit in a mix, and the short-delay recipe behind Automatic Double Tracking.
Six Delay Types
A visual map of the six delay forms in 1.12 — clean, multi-tap, slapback, tape echo, ping-pong and modulated. Browse the territory before drilling into each.
Delay Interface
Explore the Delay interface — learn what delay time, sync, feedback, filter, ping pong and dry/wet do.
