The Axe-Fx UltraTM MegaTap Delay is a 2.5 second, 40-tap delay line with paramteric control of time, amplitude, and panning. This effect can be used to create interesting delay patterns or as a “density increaser” for use before reverberant effects.

Parameters

  • INPUT GAIN - Sets the input level to the effect. Attach this to an expression pedal or controller to produce swell effects.
  • MASTER LEVEL - Controls the overall level of all the delay taps.
  • COARSE TIME - Sets the coarse delay time of the last tap.
  • FINE TIME - Sets the fine delay time of the last tap.
  • NUMBER OF TAPS - Sets the number of taps (repeats) off the delay line.
  • TIME SHAPE - Sets the spacing of the delays as a function of tap number. This along with the TIME ALPHA paramter can be used to control the tap spacing.
  • TIME ALPHA - Sets the spacing of the delays as a function of tap number. This controls the rate at which the spacing changes.
  • AMPLITUDE SHAPE - Sets the amplitude shape of the taps as a function of tap number.
  • AMPLITUDE ALPHA - Sets the amplitude of the taps as a function of tap number. This parameter controls the rate at which the amplitudes change with tap number.
  • PAN SHAPE - Sets the pan shape of the taps as a function of tap number.
  • PAN ALPHA - Sets the panning of the taps as a function of tap number. This parameter controls the rate at which the pans change with tap number.
  • TIME RANDOMIZE - Controls how much the tap spacing is randomized.
