Meris LVX (2)
Continuing the exploration of the Meris LVX, I now will define the second page of parameters for the "Standard", “Multi Tap“, “Multi Filter“, “Poly“ and “Reverse“ delay structure. This is a straightforward delay, offering a clean and precise echo. The parameters available in this mode allow for fine-tuning of the delay repeats to achieve a wide range of sonic textures.
Damping
The 'Damping' parameter adjusts the high-frequency attenuation of the delay repeats:
Stock Damping: Indicates a neutral setting by default, which maintains the original high-frequency content of the delay.
Increased Damping: Applying more damping will soften the repeats, rolling off the high end and creating warmer echoes.
Decreased Damping: Less damping will preserve the high frequencies, resulting in brighter and more pronounced delay repeats.
Feedback
The 'Feedback' parameter determines the number of delay repeats:
Higher Feedback: Increasing this value will result in more echoes.
Lower Feedback: Decreasing feedback will yield fewer repeats.
Mod (Modulation)
Modulation adds movement and depth to the delay line:
Increased Mod: Turning up the modulation introduces a wavering effect to the repeats.
Zero Mod: Keeping it at 0% ensures the delay repeats remain unmodulated, preserving their clarity and stability.
Crossfeed
The 'Crossfeed' parameter controls the interaction between the stereo channels:
Higher Crossfeed: Increasing crossfeed sends more of the delayed signal from one channel to the other, enhancing the stereo width and creating an immersive listening experience.
Zero Crossfeed: At 0%, the stereo channels are kept separate, which can be desirable for maintaining a clear distinction between the left and right outputs.
On the next post we will be looking at the custom parameters for the Multi-Tap delay structure.
