The FX Section of Addictive Keys consists of two identical Delerb units (a delay that is fed into a reverb). Each Instrument Channel in the AK Mixer Section can send to these effects.
The Delerb outputs are available in the Mixer section, where you can adjust volume and pan, before they are summed in the Master Channel together with the Instrument Channels.
Delay
Delay Time can be set in ms, or you can click the Sync button to sync the delay to the current MIDI file’s tempo. You can also click-hold and drag the Delerb Graph left/right to adjust delay time and reverb.
Feedback controls how many repeats you will hear before the delay fades out. At 0% you get one repeat. At 100% the delay repeats infinitely. You can also click-hold and drag the Delerb Graph up/down to adjust the delay feedback.
Swing adds a swing or shuffle effect to the echo repeats, and Ping Pong makes the sound bounce back and forth between the left and right output channels, creating a distinct stereo effect.
Range limits the frequency range of the delay.
Crossfader & Delerb graph
The display shows a visual graph of the current Delerb decay, and it will update as you move the Delerb Crossfader to set the balance between the delay and the reverb.
Reverb
This effect offers several types of reverb, selectable with the Arrow Buttons, or by clicking the reverb type Name.
The Pre-delay is useful for placing the reverb slightly after the drum transients, which can make the mix clearer and more punchy.
Decay adjusts the reverb time. You can also click-hold and drag the Delerb Graph up/down to adjust the reverb decay.
Damping lets you manage high frequency reflections and ringing.
EQ
Same as the regular Channel strip EQ.
