TC2290 User Manual
Knowing that DELAY MIX will likely be the most common plug-in parameter that
users will need to access regularly, this has been programmed as the default
Special Number. As soon as the SPEC button is pressed, Special #2 (DELAY MIX)
will appear as the SNO entry, and the SPEC button can be pressed again to toggle
focus to the DELAY MIX value (SVA). Use the arrow keys or KEYBOARD to enter the
desired value. Press SPEC again to return to the normal preset select state.
To access a Special number other than DELAY MIX, press the SPEC button until
SNO is highlighted with a red LED. Dial the desired Special Number on the
KEYBOARD and press ENTER, which will automatically toggle the SPEC focus to
Special Value (SVA). Dial the value using the UP/DOWN arrows or the KEYBOARD.
KEYBOARD
The KEYBOARD section is used to enter specific values or presets instead of
scrolling with arrow buttons. Generally, when entering a specific value, the green
LED associated with that parameter section must be flashing in order for the
KEYBOARD to take effect. After a value has been chosen, press the ENTER button
to confirm.
5.2 Plug-in Controls - Secondary Parameters
INPUT
Click and drag up or down to adjust the input level from 0 to 99. Alternatively,
double click on the numeral to enter a value manually. A setting of 0 is -∞,
and a setting of 1 is -96 dB. The level increases in 3 dB increments at lower
settings, and by 0.5 dB increments above -40 dB.
DELAY ON
Click and drag the MIX parameter to adjust the balance between the direct and
delay signals.
Click the right side of the MUTE mode parameter to select whether muting
affects the input or output signals, or both. Muting the input will allow the echo
tail to fade naturally after the effect is bypassed.
OUTPUT
Click and drag up or down to adjust the output level from 0 to 99. A setting of
0 is -∞, and a setting of 1 is -96 dB. The level increases in 3 dB increments at
lower settings, and by 0.5 dB increments above -40 dB.
Adjust the pan position of the signal by clicking and dragging the PAN parameter.
Panning is only applied to signals chosen with the DELAY/DIRECT button in the
PAN section of the hardware unit. With a setting of 50, both the direct and delay
signals are centered. A setting of 0 places the direct signal hard right and delay
hard left. A setting of 99 places the direct signal hard left and the delay signal
hard right.
When the INV DLY button is activated, the output of the delay signal is
phase inverted.
Lock Symbol
Some of the parameters can by locked from being recalled when a new preset
is selected. Locked parameters will always keep their values no matter which
preset you recall.
A great example of use is using it with the MIX parameter.
The default presets provided in the plug-in are typically created with the intent
that the effect will be inserted on the track (as an insert effects). A MIX value has
been chosen that will work for that preset.
However, if you'd like to use the TC2290 as a send/parallel effect, the MIX
parameter should typically be set to 100%. After setting the MIX to 100%, use
the lock function to make sure it stays at 100% even if you load another preset.
