Re: evolver delay

2003-08-26 by adamburr1973

each delay line alone may not have enough gain to do what you want,
but turn up all three (level1, level2, level3) and you should be able
to get some explosive feedback. you can set them all to the same time
if you want them to sound like a single delay line (time1, time2,
time3). you will also have to turn up one or both of the feedback
levels (feedback1, feedback2). feedback1 is clean digital feedback and
distorts badly. feedback2 is less harsh because it is routed through
the filter and vca. those will have to be turned up for it to have an
effect (filter frequency, vca level). use the filter frequency to
adjust the feedback tone on feedback2.

the tuned feedback (level) can also produce explosive feedback and it
is stereo which can sound nice. it also runs through the filter and
vca so remember to turn those up (filter frequency, vca level).
