Filled with analog character, Magnetic Echo is modeled after the Binson Echorec, widely used by Pink Floyd in the ’70s. Magnetic Echo includes unique features such as a continuous SPREAD control to dynamically offset the L/R delay times, and a Multihead mode for diffusion effects. It can create anything from overdriven regenerations and dark echo taps, to dense reverb-like delay clouds. Arguably the vibiest delay in Omnisphere!
- MINI-SLIDER
Controls the mix of the dry signal and the processed signal. The percentage indicated is the amount of the signal that is processed.
Range: 0 ~ 100%
PAGE ONE CONTROLS
- DRIVE
Sets the amount tube saturation added to the Input signal.
Range: +15 dB to –15 dB
- TONE
Controls the amount of high frequency content in the wet signal.
Range: –10.00 ~ 10.00
- TIME
Sets the record head delay time.
If the Sync button is engaged, the selectable delay times will be in BPM:
Range: 1/1 ~ 1/16 T
(D = dotted value and T = Triplet)
- SYNC
Synchronizes the delay times with your host’s tempo.
- FEEDBACK
Controls the amount of signal fed back into the unit for echo repeats.
Range: 0.00% ~ 100.00%
- NOISE
Controls the level of added electro-mechanical noise for realism.
Range: 0.00% ~ 100.00%
PAGE TWO CONTROLS
- WOW
Controls the amount of wow and flutter caused by the imperfect rotation speed of the magnetic disk.
Range: –0.00% ~ 100.00%
- LO CUT (HPF)
Low frequencies are attenuated (cut) below the frequency set by this knob, allowing higher frequencies to pass.
Range: OFF ~ 5 kHz
- STEREO
Switches between Mono and Stereo output.
- SPREAD
Offsets the delay time of the right channel based on the TIME parameter.
Range: 0.50 ~ 2.00
- MULTIHEAD
Adds density to the delay by engaging a series of 3 additional record heads.
- MASTER
Adjusts the output level.
Range: –15 dB to +15 dB
