Hello!

Are there any presets for the CD100 chorus/delay?

or any manual?

or if someone explained me what each button and fader does..

Hi,

Well..... I'll try to explain some of the functions - here we go :

MAIN page / Stereo Enhancement.

The stereo enhancement module performs some manipulation of the center and difference channels to allow widening of the stereo field. A bas filter in included on the difference signal - by boosting only the low freq of the signal, you can improve the sense of stereo envelopment without destroying your stereo sound field.

Center G - Represents the level of the mono or center mix.

Diff G - The level of the diffence signal - contains the spatial information of the stereo signal.

D Bass G - By boosting the low freq of the diff. signal you can increase the sense of acoustic envelopment, the sense of being surrounded by an acoustic environment.

L/R Delay - If this parameter is positive, +20, the left channel is delayed by 20 samples. If its negative, the right channels is delayed.

CHORUS page.

The Chorus module is a 6 voices dual chorus module - it contains 3 separate taps for each channel that allow you to pan the delay taps between left and right output. The summed taps (blue/left tap1, tap2 and tap3 or orange/right tap1, tap2 and tap3), weighted by their level controls, are used for (cross)feedback back to the delay line input. The feedback signals go through a filter befor entering the delay line.

For each of the tapped delay lines, you may set the delays of the modulating delay lines, the tap levels, the left/right pan position, the modulation shape, the rates of the modulation, ande the maximum depth.

More will follow

Thank you very much for responding!

It is a too complicated and powerful device, and I am too dummy to figure all this out by myself!

I have many questions more:
- The input filter affects the "dry" signal too? Or only the chorus and the delays?
- What is the flanger noise, and what is its purpose?
- The Delay section processes the chorused signal or the dry signal? Is there a way to choose the delay section to be fed from either the dry or the chorused signal?
- Why Tap 1 is different from Tap 2 & 3?
- What is the Diffusor and its parameters?
- In the Setup, what are the envelop parameters (the left, right, and the gains) and what is its purpose?

I am sorry for tiring you with all these questions, but I hear everybody raving about the quality of this device, and I never use it because I dont understand it.

Thanks again for your help! I look forward to more information!

Hi,

I'll try to answer some of your questions.

1) You're able to see the routing on the Main page of the device. According to the picture the input filter affects the dry signal.

2) Flanging and chorusing use the same algorithm - when we talk about flanging, the typical delay times are on the order od 0-5ms. Longer delay times begin to get into the realm of chorusing. An often characteristic effect of flanging is the sound of analog system noise "whooshing" - to recreate the effect of system noise flanging you use the paramters on the Main page.

3)Thats possible. With a value of 0% chorus mix the delay section will only process the dry signal.

4+5)Please locate a manual of a 300L - and look for dual delay. There are some additional features, like chorus feedback for the delay tap 3 etc.

6) Thats an envelope follower - you can modulate alot of parameters - if you modulate the volume (and/or feedback) in the delay section you'll achieve ducking delay.

Kind regards

Thank you for your response!

I am starting to get an idea now! I ll fiddle around with it now and see what can I do .
