Adding Delays

Use the Delay effect to add analog and tape-style echoes to your tracks. This vintage gear-inspired delay unit has unique features, including a delay meter that lets you see and adjust the level and spacing of each echo generated.

To add a delay to audio, do this:

1.Select the media file in the library that you want to add the delay to.
2.If required, use range selection to select the portion of audio you want to apply the effect to. See Range Selection for more information on selecting a range of an audio file. If you don't select a range, the effect is applied to the entire audio clip.

Note: the entire audio file's waveform is selected by default when this feature is opened. If you want to apply this feature to the entire audio file, you do not need to use range selection when the entire waveform is selected.

3.Decide whether you want to apply the effect on all the available channels, or just one channel. See Selecting Channels for Editing for more information on selecting channels.
4.Click Delay under the Apply Effect section.
5.Select a delay preset from the Presets drop-down. Select the preset that best suits the sound you want to achieve.
6.If required, click to modify the advanced settings as follows:
Delay Time: sets the delay time in milliseconds by default.
Dry Out: sets the output gain of the dry signal without delay added to the signal.
Wet Out: sets the output gain of the wet/delayed signal.
Feedback: sets the gain of the delay feedback. Higher values will result in longer audible feedback times, i.e. more repeats.
7.If required, you can preview how the applied effect will sound by selecting Adjusted result and then clicking the Preview button on the playback controls. Select Original audio if you want to play the original audio.
8.Click Apply to add the delay to the audio.

Note: if required, click on the Effect tab to see the applied effect in the edit panel. See Effect Tab for more information.
