INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on the purchase of your new D•TWO Multi-tap Rhythm Delay.

The D•TWO Multi-tap Rhythm Delay is an easy to use, high quality digital Delay

unit. When it comes to Delay effects we are convinced that with this unit you are

well covered. This applies for live-sound production as well as in the studio. The

D•TWO covers not only all the traditional Delay functions, but also a few brand new

ones. With traditional Delay units it is generally only possible to control Feedback

and Level on a specified fixed Delay time. With the D•TWO you are now able to tap

actual rhythm patterns consisting of up to 10 taps directly into the unit.

Many will recognize the TC 2290 studio Delay unit as the Delay unit that introduced

the “Dynamic Delay” function. A function that allows the Delay Output level to be

actively altered by the dynamics of the Input level. A function that can be used to

leave the source material clear and undisturbed while played and delicately

accompanied by the Delay between phrases. Yes, this feature is also available in

the D•TWO.

We hope you will have as much pleasure using the D•TWO as we had making it.

For any questions left unanswered by this manual feel free to visit our online support

center; TC Support Interactive, which can be accessed via: www.tcelectronic.com

FRONT PANEL OVERVIEW

POWER button

Power on/off.

IN LEVEL knob

Adjusts the Input level.

At center position a relay will

switch the Input circuit

between consumer and pro

level. This will insure optimal

Input Gain range and superb

“signal to noise” ratio is

achieved.

MIX knob

Adjusts the global mix between

dry and wet signal. Fully

clockwise position is 100%

effect.

IN meters

The IN peak meter shows the

Input level of left and right

channels. The meter range is:

0, -3, -6 ,-12, -18, -24, -40dB.

OVERLOAD LEDS

The OVERLOAD LEDs

indicate one of two situations:

- The Input level is too hot

and therefore overloading.

- There is an internal DSP

overflow.

The OVERLOAD LED is lit

when 1 sample is @ 0dBFS.

DELAY TIME indicator

The DELAY TIME indicator can

display Delay time in either ms

(milliseconds) or BPM (Beats

Per Minute). This is selected in

the Setup menu. The ms or

the BPM icon next to the Delay

time will be lit accordingly.

The tempo is also indicated via

the blinking TEMPO/RHYTHM

indicator.

SUBDIVISION indicator

The selected subdivision

determines the recalculation of

the tapped tempo. Example:

At 120BPM you tap 1/4 notes.

The tapped time equals

500ms. If the Subdivision is

set to 1/8, the D•TWO now

recalculates the Delay time to

250ms.

DYNAMIC meter

Indicates the gain reduction on

the Delay Output when using

the Dynamic Delay algorithm.

EDITED icon

This icon will be lit as soon as

the current recalled preset has

been modified.

FACTORY/USER icon

Shows whether you are

operating in the Factory or the

User bank.

MIDI IN icon

Indicates the presence of

incoming MIDI information.

SAMPLE RATE indicator

The SAMPLE RATE indicator

shows the clock source and

the incoming master clock.

The “DI” icon will be blinking if

no clock or unacceptable clock

is found.

FEEDBACK %

The amount of level fed back

to the Delay line. Indicates the

Decay time of the Delay

repeats.

FEEDBACK #

The exact number of repeats.

FB FILTER LEDS

Indicates the Feedback High

and Low Cut filter setting.

FILTER LEDS

Indicates the overall High and

Low Cut filter setting.

PINGPONG LEDS

Indicates the panning currently

processed.

FRONT PANEL OVERVIEW

DELAY/TAP key

This key has two main

functions:

- When the DELAY key LED

is lit, the DELAY wheel can

be used to adjust the Delay

time.

- When the key is tapped the

D•TWO measures the time

between the last two taps

and the Delay time is

calculated according to the

selected subdivision.

FEEDBACK/RHYTHM key

This key has three main

functions:

- When the LED is lit the

DELAY wheel is changing

the Feedback level or %.

- When the key is pressed

and held, the DELAY wheel

changes the number of

repeats.

- Tap a rhythm pattern using

this key. A rhythm pattern

can consist of up to 10 taps.
