Delay
Feedback delay with a one-pole low-pass on its output. The time dial carries a note-value scale at the session tempo. The scope plots each repeat's level, the drop per repeat in dB and the number of repeats before the tail has fallen 60 dB.

Parameters
| Parameter | Range |
|---|---|
| Time | 20–2000 ms |
| Feedback | 0–0.85 |
| Tone | low-pass, 1.2–18 kHz |
| Mix | 0–1 |
Controls and display
Three wet processors, placeable as ordinary inserts (Mix = dry/wet) or on FX returns (Mix pinned 100 % wet). Up to three wet inserts per chain.
Delay: Time 20–2000 ms (250) · Feedback 0–0.85 (0.25) · Tone 0–1 (0.5) · Mix. Surface (the time dial): the TIME knob sits in the left card inside a bezel wearing a note-value scale at the session tempo — long ticks for 1/16, 1/8, 1/4, 1/2 and 1 bar, short ticks for the dotted and triplet values — so setting a musical time is turning to a tick; the lit tick is the nearest value (accent when the time is within 1 % of it, amber when it misses), and the NOTE cell under the time reads it with the miss ("1/8 +3.3%", or ON GRID).
There is no sync mode: the scale follows the transport's tempo. The middle card is the echo scope — the repeats this setting makes: bars at the delay time on a 0…−60 dB axis over the note values of one bar, each one quieter by the feedback (the dashed slope is stamped in dB per repeat) and amber as the Tone low-pass darkens them — it is one pole on the delay's output, over the whole tail at once, so every echo carries the same colour and Tone moves them together (it is not inside the feedback loop); a red bracket to the nearest grid line shows the miss in ms, and the bars flash as a real echo sounds.
The first bar is the grab tap: drag sideways for time, up or down for feedback, and double-click to snap the time to the nearest note. FEEDBACK, TONE and MIX sit in a deck under it. The right card reads REPEATS (echoes before the tail falls 60 dB), TAIL, PER REPEAT, TONE CUTOFF (1.2–18 kHz), WET (the echo path's level, live) and the session tempo where the height allows. In the focus pane the SCOPE · TAPE chip switches to the echo tape: six seconds of the dry hits on an IN lane and every echo they threw under it — at the delay time, falling by the feedback, warming with the tone — against the beat grid scrolling with the transport, so an echo landing on a grid line reads as in time before you hear it; a bracket on the newest hit is stamped with the time and its note, and a dashed bracket marks the tail.
The same switch is view.delay_tape.
All three share a breathing WET lamp, send-in/wet-out metering, and contribute a real decay tail so track freeze doesn't chop a ringing reverb.
