The output is a mix of the original signal plus two delayed versions of itself. The delay lengths for each of the two "taps", and the relative amplitudes of the original and delayed signal paths are adjustable via the Parameter Window, as summarised in the following table. Stereo signals have separate adjustments for left and right channels. Parameter Purpose "First Tap Delay" slider Sets the delay length for the first tap (expressed in seconds) "First Tap Gain" slider Adjusts the amplitude of the first delayed signal path "Second Tap Delay" slider Sets the delay length for the second tap (expressed as a fraction of the first tap) "Second Tap Gain" slider Adjusts the amplitude of the second delayed signal path "Mix" slider Adjusts the relative amplitudes of the combined delayed and original signal paths. A value of 0.5 corresponds to an equal mix. NOTE: With the appropriate settings, this component can be used as a delay or an echo effect. A multi-tap delay can be obtained by connecting multiple units in parallel.
The delay is implemented using a circular buffer with multiple "taps". See [Moore] for further information, and [HRM] for general information on audio effects.
