A beginner's guide to the components of a modular synthesizer

9 - 2399 3x SPLASHBACK DELAY :

The delay is a module to make some echo to your sound. Internally there are three delay units. Each one takes an input signal, delays it for some amount of time, and sends out a mix of the original (“dry”) signal and the delayed (“wet”) signal. The output is also fed back into the input so there are multiple “echoes”.

INPUT : enter for the signal

OUTPUT : the out of the module

ON/OFF SWITCH : when it is OFF the signal passes through without being affected by the module, and when ON the module operates
(an LED just above the switch indicates its state)

CV IN : with an external signal you can control the TIME from another module.

CV ATTENUATOR : controls how much the CV IN affects TIME

MIX 1 / 2 / 3 : adjusts the intensity level of each delay

HI/LOW SWITCH : allows you to choose whether to apply a low pass filter to the output of the effect

SPLASHBACK 1/2/3 : adjusts the feedback level of each delay

TIME: regulates the basic delay time for all three delay units

TIME 2/3 : regulates the additional delay time (above TIME) for the second and third delay units
