Interface
"In" jack
This is the typical 3.5 mm mono jack where to put an
ordinary audio signal. The signal can origin from your
mixer an oscillator-module system or a synth-output -
the DELUXE DELAY eats audio of all levels.
"Level" knob
This knob is a simple attenuator to get the sometimes
very high audiolevels of the eurorack world (up to 20
Vpp) down to a level the delaychip does not distort
anymore (about 5V pp) even if the Send-VCA is fully
open. The input signal itself which will be mixed with
the delay by the „mix“ knob is not altered by the
„Level“ knob.
Send-VCA with CV-jack and switch
Creative note
You might ask yoursel now „What? What? Wait. Send-
VCA? I don't get it! What is it good or?“ Well, it is just this Send-VCA making the DELUXE
DELAY that unique. This eature allows continuois and precise control o the amount o
delay on a special musical moment. 'Ordinary' delays endlessly paint the input signal with
their echos, o ten resulting in an unde ined sound-mash. Our DELUXE DELAY allows you e.g.
to send a drumloop through it and put delay on JUST a snaredrum, keeping the rest o the
loop completely dry.
Thats how to do it: tilt the switch to the le t to close the Send-VCA and send a control
voltage into the Send-VCA CV-jack. The control voltage is 0 Volt per de ault and goes high
(e.g. +5V) or just that short moment, the snare is present. As long as the CV is high, it opens
the VCA letting the short passage with the snare sound pass through into the delayunit. The
CV drops back to 0 Volt, closes the Send-VCA and the rest o the loop will there ore NOT be
painted with the delay e ect.
The eedback o the delay with the echoes o your snare are NOT in luenced by the Send-
VCA and ade out naturally by getting back into the delayunit independently. O course the
Send-VCA can not only be ON or OFF; the modulation o the Send-VCA is stepless.
