Delay
Delay delay is an audio effect that produces distinct repetitions of the original sound creating echoes and rhythmic patterns. It works by capturing the input signal, delaying it by a specified amount of time and then feeding it back into the mix. Here's a detailed explanation of delay and its creative uses before we do this. Let's solo the guitar part and let's add a delay effect to this track in the mixer. So let's press the plus button in the effect slot area and let's choose delay and let's choose a tape delay. There are other delay effects we can choose here. But for this example, let's choose the tape delay. I also recommend checking out the other delays as well at some point. Let's now tap on this effect and tap show details delay time. This determines the amount of time between each repetition of the delayed signal. Short delay times produce fast rhythmic echoes while longer decay times create spacious ambient effects. Let me show you this now. So I'll play this back and then I...
'll change the delay time. So you can hear the difference, I'll also increase the delay wet amount, which we'll talk about very soon. Let's now put this back to 1/16 notes and let's have a look at feedback. This controls the number of repetitions or echoes generated by the delay effect. Increasing feedback creates more repetitions resulting in a denser more pronounced delay effect. So let's play this back and I'll adjust the feedback dial, dry wet mix. This adjusts the balance between the original dry signal and the delayed wet signal. A higher wet mix emphasizes the delay effect while a low wet mix maintains more of the original signal. So let's play this back and I'll adjust the wet control. Some delay effects offer filtering options to shape the tone of the delayed signal. High pass and low pass filters can be used to remove unwanted frequencies or add warmth and texture to the delay effect. So this tape delay effect has these high and low filters. So let's play this back and adjust these to hear the difference. Common delay techniques delay can be used to enhance the spatial imaging of audio recordings. Create a sense of depth and dimension to the mix delay can be used to create rhythmic patterns and syncopated rhythms and music. By synchronizing the delay time to the tempo of the song, you can create rhythmic echoes that complement the groove and add interest to the rhythm section. And we can sync the delay time to the tempo of the project. By enabling this button here, delay can be used to create lush ambient textures and soundscapes in music. By layering multiple delay signals with different delay times and feedback settings, you can build complex evolving textures that add depth and atmosphere to your compositions. Delay can also be used creatively to add character and interest to audio recordings. Experiment with unconventional delay settings such as extreme delay times feedback settings and modulation effects to create unique unexpected sounds that add intrigue and excitement to your music. OK. So now let's bypass the delay plug in and that's the end of this video. In the next video, we'll look at some common modulation effects. So thanks for watching and I'll see you there.
