Revision as of 19:36, 26 June 2011
The AFXII adds improvements to the Delay block: a two-band parametric EQ for the wet signal with low-cut and high-cut with adjustable slopes for the cut filters. The EQ stuff is on a separate GUI page with a graphical display. Source
Delay blocks now have a master feedback that goes to 200% for oscillating delay effects. Source
The tape delays model the preamp too. Source
