Product Description

The 4ms Dual Looping Delay (DLD) is an advanced audio processor for creative synthesis. Not a tape or analog emulation but a modern crystal-clear digital delay, the DLD combines features of delay, looping, and sample-tight synchronization for powerful and dynamic sound capture and modification. The DLD is designed to integrate seamlessly with modular timebase and sequencing devices such as the 4ms Quad Clock Distributor (QCD), etc.

What is a "Looping Delay"?

Modern looping devices grew directly from hardware digital delays of the late 70s and early 80s. A looping delay, modeled on units such as the classic Lexicon PCM42, has the very long storage times associated with dedicated looping, but without triggered record and playback functions.By default, a looping delay records and plays continuously, though recording can be suspended at any time with Infinite Repeat. Sustain of delays and loops is mainly accomplished with regeneration, allowing an organic, evolving approach to sound creation as new material replaces old, more or less gradually. The 4ms Dual Looping Delay also provides advanced clock input and output facilities that allow for locking delayed and looped material with sequencers and rhythmic devices

Specs:

  • 20 HP Eurorack format module
  • 0.98" (25mm) maximum depth with power cable
  • Power consumption:
  • +12V rail: 188mA max (jumper set to 5V)
  • -12V rail: 48mA max
  • +5V rail: not used
  • Connect red stripe of power cable towards the bottom of the module, which is marked with a white stripe and the words -12V and POWER
  • Audio Inputs
  • 0Hz (DC) to 24kHz
  • 16.8V peak-to-peak maximum before clipping (when AC coupled)
  • Optional jumper to choose DC or AC coupling on input.
  • Audio Outputs
  • 0Hz (DC) to 24kHz with maximum -1.7dB difference between input and output (see technical specification section)
  • +10.5V to -10.5V maximum output
  • Soft limiting compression allows for saturation before clipping (can be disabled)
  • Clock outputs (Main, Loop A, Loop B):
  • 0V to 8.2V
  • +/- 2.4us maximum jitter (i.e. 0.001% at 120 BPM)
  • Rise or Fall time: <1us
  • Pulse Width (Trigger mode) 22ms
  • Gate mode 50% (square wave)
  • At clock speeds faster than 22Hz, the clock output becomes 50% duty cycle
