The Noise Engineering Electus Versio is the Clocked Atmosphere Generator You Never Knew You Needed Not quite a reverb, not quite a delay, Electus is Desmodus's more aggressive clocked counterpart: more distortion, more in-your-face atmospheres, and synced delays for creating your tails in a whole new way. Use it as a spacey clocked delay, as a reverb that starts with some synced echoes, or as a completely new way to create evolving spaces. Not only is EV a unique atmosphere generator, it's a stereo DSP platform. A simple USB connection allows you to update EV to a variety of firmwares. Open-source support is available, too, which allows you to write your own firmware! Interface Blend: Dry/wet balance control. When turned fully left, the unmodified input signal is passed through. Fully right, only the processed signal is heard. Points in the middle give you a mix of both Tone: A filter in the feedback loop. This is a bipolar control: turning the knob to the left controls a lowpass filter, and to the right controls a highpass filter. In the center, the filter is disabled Regen: Amount of feedback. Regen controls a wide range of tones and behaviors. All the way to the left, feedback is minimized. As you turn up to about 12:00, EV generates shorter, tamer tails and delays. Past this point, the atmosphere reaches 100% feedback, creating infinite and evolving tails. Past 3:00, the tails are ducked by new sounds at the input, creating sidechain-type effects Speed: The speed of the internal LFO Index: The amount of LFO sent to the delay lines that make up the effect. This is a bipolar control: in the center the LFO is disabled; to the left, the LFO modulates the delay lines randomly. To the right, the LFO modulates the delay lines with a sine wave Size: The delay time. When unclocked, it sets times from comb-like bursts at the left to long, lush delays at the right. When clocked, it selects from the following clock divisions/multiplications: 1/2, 5/8, 3/4, 7/8, 1/1, 15/4, 3/2, 7/4, 2/1 Dense: The spacing of the delay lines. To the left, the effect sounds like a delay, to the right the delays are smeared into reverb Tap: Tap tempo. Tap in your desired clock rate, or use an external clock. Holding down this button for about two seconds exits clocked mode and returns to free-running mode. LIM/DST/SHM: Atmosphere style LIM (Limit): A clean atmosphere, using limiting to contain feedback DST (Distort): Instead of using limiting, clipping is used to limit feedback creating a more distorted tail SHM (Shimmer): A demonic pitch-shifting algorithm. Adds a one-octave pitch shift that feeds back into the input L/C/R: Reflection structure: Changes how the delay lines connect with each other In L/In R: Audio input. If R is not patched, the signal from L is normaled to both inputs Out L/Out R: Stereo output pair SPECIFICATIONS Type: Stereo delay/reverb/both?
