O Effect Indicator
This lights up when the effect is turned on.
O Effect Switch
This turns on or off the effect.
0 Delay Time Range Knob
This selects one of the 8 delay time ranges (15ms
to 2s).
* When you change delay time range from "2s" to
any other one or from any range to "2s", muting
circuits are activated, therefore no delay sound is
heard for a few seconds.
When "CHORUS" position is selected, the unit is
turned to Chorus mode, behaving like a stereo chorus.
O Delay Time Fine Knob
This knob can finely adjust the delay time range set
with the Delay Time Range Knob. The set delay time
can be continuously changed from "xO.5" to "x1".
* Using the Delay Time Range Knob and the Delay
Time Fine Knob, delay time can be set from 7.5 ms
to 2s continuously.
When the Chorus mode is selected, this knob adjusts
the depth of the chorus effect.
0 Feedback Level Knob
This sets the number of the delay repeats. Clockwise
rotation increases the number of the repeats, and at
its fully counterclockwise position, a single delay (one
delay for each right and left each in stereo) will be
created.
* When this knob is set fully clockwise, oscillation
may occur. If so, rotate the knob counterclockwise
until the oscillation stops.
* This knob does not work in the Chorus mode.
O Delay Tone Knob
This adjusts the tone of the delay (or chorus) sound.
Rotating the knob counterclockwise cuts higher fre
quencies, creating softer sound. At 3 o'clock position,
almost flat characteristic is obtained.
0 Delay Level Knob
This controls the volume of the delay (or chorus)
sound. Clockwise rotation raises the volume.
0 Power Inidcator
This lights up when the unit is turned on.
O Power Switch
0 Input Jack
Connect a musical instrument or audio equipment to
this jack.
* The standard and the pin jacks cannot be used at
the same time. When both are used simultaneously,
the standard phone jack will work.
0 Input Level Selector Switch
Set this switch depending on the output level of the
connected device.
* When a musical instrument is connected, set the
switch to "-20dBm", and when an AV equipment
is connected, set it to "-lOdBm". When sounds
are distorted at "-20dBm" position, set it to
" —lOdBm".
