Delay Plug-ins

AnalogDelay

This delay effect is based on the Yamaha E1010 analog delay released in the 1970s, with a few refinements to bring it up to date for modern applications. It delivers the same deep, organic echo sound that was a characteristic of the BBD analog delay devices used in the original E1010. Modulation can be added for a thick chorus sound. And, taking versatility to the next level, it is possible to select BBD sounds that were not available in the original E1010 so characters ranging from clear and precise to warm are available for use.

① DRIVE METER: This meter indicates the amount of drive by input level. Because Analog Delay features BBD and dynamics circuits, higher input level would bring the delayed sound up to maximum and increase the drive amount.
② DELAY TIME INDICATOR: Indicates the current delay time and converted BPM value. The tap tempo function can be used, and pressing the Sync button changes the delay time and BPM display to match the tap tempo.
③ BBD TYPE SWITCHES: Adjust the characteristics of the delay sound. The characteristics become stronger in the order of A to E.

A: Clear sound as heard from a vintage digital delay

B to D: Natural sound, equivalent to the E1010

E: Warm sound similar to an instrumental stomp box

④ TIME RANGE SWITCHES: Specify the delay time range controlled via the DELAY knob.
⑤ INPUT KNOB: Adjusts the input gain. As the input increases, the delay’s drive amount also increases. If the input level is lower, a cleaner sound is produced. If the input level is higher, a deeper delay sound is produced.
⑥ BASS KNOB: Adjusts the low frequency range level at the input stage.
⑦ TREBLE KNOB: Adjusts the high frequency range level at the input stage.
⑧ DELAY KNOB: Adjusts the delay time.
⑨ FEEDBACK KNOB: Adjusts the feedback amount of the delay signal.
⑩ FREQUENCY KNOB: Adjusts the frequency of modulation.
⑪ DEPTH KNOB: Adjusts the depth of modulation.
⑫ MIX KNOB: Adjusts the mix balance between dry and delay sounds.
