This video shows how to use 2 delays in MB7 to create live beat delay effects.

Explanation

The track is made of two loops:

• The first loop goes to bus 1 with the modulated filters and delays.
• The second loop goes to bus 2
• The first loop also goes to Bus 3 to provide an independant dry and unfiltered signal.

• The delay have their tempi set at the right BPM, and various filter effects.
• Delay time is also not the same on both delays
• The Fx2 Aux delay has a flanger loaded in the wet-insert slot.

The first bus is set as follows

1a - is the filter settings, here a bandpass filter with a high offset and resonance to the max for the demo. 1b - is the modulation source and amounts. The source is an LFO connected to modulation input A. 2 - The two inserts are in parrallel instead of insert 1 going to insert 2. Each insert takes its source after the filter, and then mixed in the Crossfader under the name of "XF" and "Fx2" The crossfader allows to select various sources and mix them together. XF is a dynamic input: it can be the sound at the inputs, after the filter, or after Fx 1 as we chose here. So we have Fx1 on one side of the crossfader, and Fx2 on the other side of the crossfader. If the source of XF was "Input", then we would hear the "dry" input sound on XF, and the output of Fx2 on the other side. When the circuit is in "serial" mode ( - - ) , then the source of Fx2 is Fx1. If the channel is in dual mode ( = ), then the source of Fx2 is the output of the filter. Press on the "Help" button of MB7 to show explicit circuit diagrams and more info.
