69 Delay Clever use of Delay is a cornerstone in many different styles of dance music - especially dub. For a dub flavor, set the BALANCE knob to around 2 or 3 o'clock, and turn on the effect only for certain beats. Play around with this - experiment and try to hit the "sweet spot," the point where the Delay locks into the groove and gives you the feel you want! One Two Three Four Try hitting the beat with the effect at these points. Release! N Knob position and Delay time The knob position determines the rhythmic division (in note values) of the Delay - automatically synchronizing the Delay to the bpm. 70 Delay fill-in Delay can be also used as a break or fill-in to take you into the next Pattern. This takes a little bit of practice and gives your rhythm chops a workout - but when you hit it right, it can really rock the house! Set both the CONTROL and BALANCE knobs to 12 o'clock. Select P38, and play V A1. Turn on the effect right on the "four" and hit PATTERN STOP on the next "one." Let the delay wind down, then come in with V A3. Experiment with this a bit, hitting the effect a fraction of a second earlier or stopping the Pattern later. One Two Three Four One Two Three Four One Two Three Four One Two Three Four Hit the effect here... ...turn off the pattern here... ...and break to the new pattern (V A3) ! 50
