Insert Mode Program – Parallel Routing – Program MIX 50%. Could also be an interesting candidate for Series Mode, for more forward effects.
Shimmer-style reverb, traveling alongside Reverse delays. Subterranean caverns, returning haunted echoes from the deep. Two types of FREEZE and two forms of micro-looping further process the reverb and reverse delays. Programmed for stereo use.
All three HotKnobs are pre-programmed for making fine adjustments to several of the effects. Customize the sound, using these variations:
* [P] HotKnob (CCW) – decreases the Shimmer Delay and Reverse Delay times. 250-375-750 mS to 1000-1500-3000 mS range. [default = 100]
* [A] HotKnob (CW) – adjusts Shimmer Pitch A from -2 Oct to +2 Oct, and Pitch B from -1 Oct to +1 Oct. [default = 0].
Interesting LZ points for HK[A]:
* [20] -1oct and -5th detuned.
* [33] down a 4th and a 5th.
* [47-53] detuned around Unison.
* [70] fifths and fourths up.
* [80] octave and 5th up.
* [100] +1 and +2 octaves up.
* [B] HotKnob (CCW) – Reverse Delay X-Fade from 200 – 3 mS, and Depth Mod from 10 – 0. CCW for more percussive, staccato delays; CW for smoother transitions. [default = 100].
EXP1 slightly increases Shimmer Mix, and sweeps through 3 ranges of decay / freeze.
* HEEL: Pitch Decay 100 (cycles through the pitch shifting / regeneration.
* Mid-Throw – FREEZE Pitch – Not unlike INFINITE, where input can be added to the current FREEZE cluster.
* TOE: FREEZE Pitch + Verb. FREEZES everything in the buffer. Dry input is passed, around and disconnected from FREEZE. Dry input will still be processed by the Reverse delays, alongside the frozen tones.
Other options include momentary or latching; instant Shimmer transpose to 5ths and 4ths in opposite directions, momentary or latching repeat of the Reverse delay buffer contents, and/or a simultaneous reverse delays in Feedback micro-loops. Limited to just short of disintegration loops, yet not infinite looping.
