Harder faster ping pong remix12/26/2023 Or, we can do a 1/4 note delay with no feedback and follow that by a 1/16th note ping-pong delay. And the real fun is if you do a partial panning - like 50% left and 50% right, you can get a spread-chorus effect. If panned together the delay actually choruses, creating a cool texture. If panned apart you get a delay that has a “doubler” effect with a very wide sound. If you make micro adjustments to the timing constant on one delay going one way, and go the opposite way on the other delay, you can get some really cool effects. This effect works really well on triggered delays: delays that are set up to hit only on one word or one note.Ī really fun alternative is to set up a dual mono delay. Not only will you hear the delay change in tempo, but you will hear the pitch shift up (if sped up) or down (if slowed down). Now, hit playback and as it’s playing start changing the time constant. Put a delay on something maybe a vocal - whatever. With drums, this can be a bit tricky to make work. Generally, this works better on sounds that aren’t too transient heavy: guitars, keys and pads. This creates the effect of a mono instrument that spreads across the stereo field. Then pull the volume on the hard panned signals down until you don’t really hear them much. Put your delay between 5 to 20ms on one side, and between 15 to 30ms on the other side, and make sure the times are not the same. Usually, you’ll want to use a transparent delay that has no specific sound of its own to do this, but there’s no rule against using a stylized delay to create a unique sound.Īn alternative to this approach is to use three channels: one panned left, one panned right and one panned up the middle. Turn the wet/dry ratio to 100% wet, set the feedback to zero, and time the delay between 5 to 20ms. This works by pulling up a mono sound on two channels, panning one hard left, one hard right, and putting a delay on one side. One really cool thing you can do with a delay is to turn a mono sound into a stereo one. It’s amazing what you can create with something as simple as a repeat of a sound. ![]() One of my favorite tools for doing this is the Delay - a repetition of the sound it’s applied to. Crafting interesting tones and textures is kind of like my version of being a playing musician. I love the “sound design” element of mixing records.
