Please note that the very best way to ensure complete synchronization without artifacts is to use the DLD as the

clock master.

System Settings: the 'Center-Down' Group – NEW FEATURES!

Reverse and Hold Inputs Gate/Trigger Mode – NEW FEATURE!

In all previous firmware versions, the Reverse and (Inf) Hold jack inputs toggle the state of their respective features on

the leading edge of a trigger or gate. One trigger turns it on, one trigger turns it off.

In Version 5, there is a new option to change the response of the Reverse and Hold jacks so that the state toggles on

the leading and trailing edge of a Gate signal. Essentially, this turns Reverse and Hold into gated, rather than toggled

functions.

When the DLD is in Systems Setting mod and the left toggle switch is a center position and the right toggle switch is in

the down position, the action of the Reverse and the Hold jacks is set separately and independently, as shown in the

figure. Not that the settings apply to both audio channels.

A very interesting application of this with regard to reverse is use a variable PW pulse wave as the gating source. It

does time-stretching easily, with some really interesting time-stretching that can make sounds slow down or even go

backwards.

Note that the limits of this effect heavily depend on the Cross-fade time (described below). Some recommended

settings for initial experimentation.

Cross-fade time set to 8ms (factory default value)



Reverse jack set to toggle on gate.



QCM mode 'off'



Input a loop, maybe 2 or 3 seconds long (not important). Try a vocal sample for example



Enter Infinite Hold mode to capture the loop, and patch in a variable-width pulse wave into the Reverse jack.



Run the pulse wave in the range of 10Hz to around 80-100Hz.



Varying the pulse width makes some excellent sounds. At something like 51%-49% duty cycle we get a nice

slow roll through the sample.

Delay Feed Pot and CV Taper – NEW FEATURE!

Audio Taper vs Linear Taper is a distinction often brought up regarding pots for guitar volume knobs and effect

pedals, but it applies to synth circuits and the DLD as well. In both cases, the Delay Feed knob goes from 0% to

100%, but in Audio Taper the curve between 0 and 100 follows the way the human ear naturally perceives
