Studio Delay
The TC Electronic 2290 Delay is a legendary digital delay unit renowned for its pristine sound quality, extensive modulation capabilities, and flexible routing options. Introduced in the mid-1980s, it features up to 9.999 seconds of delay time, dynamic delay control, and MIDI implementation, making it a staple in professional studios and live rigs. Its transparent repeats, versatile presets, and ability to integrate with complex setups have made it a favorite among guitarists and producers seeking high-fidelity delay effects.
Fender Model Guide
Delivers highly detailed repeats with extensive shaping options, modulation and stereo movement. Equally suited for subtle enhancement and complex rhythmic effects.
- TIME Adjusts time before first repeat is heard.
- TAP DIVISION Synch delay time to the beat by selecting a subdivision of the current tempo.
- FEEDBACK Adjusts number of delay repeats.
- MIX Adjusts level of delay effect.
- LOW CUT Adjusts low frequencies in delay repeats.
- HIGH CUT Adjusts high frequencies in delay repeats.
- MOD RATE Adjusts delay modulation speed from slow to fast.
- MOD DEPTH Adjusts delay modulation intensity from subtle to wild.
- MOD MODE Selects delay modulation function: SINE (standard sinusoidal waveform), TRI (naturally smooth triangular waveform), RAND (random wave form, useful in creative effects similar to wow and flutter in a tape echo) and TRIG (synchronizes a ramp of modulation when input signal reaches a threshold).
- PAN RATE Adjusts speed of panning effect from slow to fast.
- PAN DEPTH Adjusts intensity of panning effect.
- PAN MODE Selects panning modulation function: SINE (standard sinusoidal waveform), TRI (naturally smooth triangular waveform) and ENV (follows strength of input signal, creating wider stereo panning effect with lower input signals).
- SPILLOVER SWITCH Select to continue hearing delay repeats after effect has been bypassed.
