This pedal aims to provide versatile delay effects without complex menu navigation.

2. Segurtasun informazioa

• Elikatze-iturria: Use only a regulated 9V DC, center-negative power supply with a minimum current rating of 85mA. Incorrect power supplies can damage the unit and void the warranty.
• Ingurumena: Do not expose the pedal to water, moisture, excessive heat, or direct sunlight. Operate in a clean, dry environment.
• Manipulazioa: Avoid dropping the pedal or subjecting it to strong impacts. Do not attempt to open the enclosure or modify the internal circuitry, as this will void the warranty.

Kontrolak:

• NAHASTU botoia: Adjusts the balance between the dry (unaffected) signal and the wet (effected) delay signal. Turning clockwise increases the delay effect's presence.
• REPEATS Knob: Controls the number of delay repetitions. From a single repeat to self-oscillation.
• EQ botoia: Shapes the tone of the delay repeats, allowing for brighter or darker echoes.
• MOD RATE Knob: Determines the speed of the modulation effect (Chorus or Vibrato).
• MOD DEPTH Knob: Controls the intensity or depth of the modulation effect.
• DENBORA botoia: Sets the delay time, from short slap-back to long, ambient delays.
• Left Toggle Switch (Delay Mode): Selects between Analog, Reverse, and Digital delay types. Musical note symbols indicate notation intervals for tap tempo.
• Right Toggle Switch (Modulation Type): Selects between Chorus, Off (no modulation), and Vibrato.
• Ezkerreko oinaren etengailua: Engages or bypasses the delay effect.
• Eskuineko oin etengailua: Typically used for Tap Tempo functionality, allowing you to set the delay time by tapping the switch.

5. Konfigurazioa

Follow these steps to integrate your Flight Delay Pedal into your audio setup:

1. Potentzia-konexioa: Connect a regulated 9V DC, center-negative power supply (not included) to the power input jack on the pedal. Ensure the power supply meets the specified requirements (85mA minimum).
2. Sarrerako konexioa: Connect your instrument (e.g., guitar) or the output of a preceding effects pedal to the INPUT jack on the Flight Delay Pedal using a standard 1/4-inch instrument cable.
3. Irteerako konexioa: Connect the OUTPUT jack of the Flight Delay Pedal to your amp1/4 hazbeteko instrumentu-kable estandar bat erabiliz, amplificatzailearen sarrera edo zure seinale-kateko hurrengo efektu-pedalaren sarrera.
4. Piztu: Once all connections are secure, connect your power supply to a wall outlet. The pedal is now ready for use.

6.1 Basic Delay Operation

• Efektua erakartzea: Press the left footswitch to toggle the delay effect on or off. The LED indicator will illuminate when the effect is active.
• Atzerapen-denbora doitzea: Erabili DENBORA knob to set the duration between repeats. Rotate clockwise for longer delay times, counter-clockwise for shorter times.

6.2 Delay Modes

Erabili left toggle switch to select one of three distinct delay modes:

• Analogikoa: Emulates classic analog delays, providing warm, darker, and decaying repeats.
• Alderantziz: Plays the delay repeats backward, creating unique textural effects.
• Digitala: Offers clear, pristine, and accurate repeats, ideal for modern sounds.

6.3 Modulazio-efektuak

The Flight Delay Pedal includes built-in modulation. Use the right toggle switch to select the modulation type:

• Korua: Adds a swirling, thickening effect to the delay repeats.
• Desaktibatuta: Disables the modulation effect.
• Bibrazioa: Introduces a pitch-bending effect to the delay repeats.

Egokitu MOD TASA eta MOD SAKONA knobs to fine-tune the speed and intensity of the selected modulation effect.

6.4 Tap Tempo and Notation Intervals

The right footswitch typically functions as a Tap Tempo control. Tap it two or more times to set the delay time. The left toggle switch also features musical note symbols, indicating options for notation intervals (e.g., quarter notes, dotted eighth notes) when using tap tempo. Refer to the official JHS Pedals website or product page for specific tap tempo subdivision instructions.
