Question about the PX-64 Percussion Strip delay

Is it just me or does the stereo control in the delay module do absolutely nothing? I'm trying get some stereo panning on the delays from a snare hit. But turning this knob from mono to stereo does nothing to the stereo field at my end. And yes, I have the snare on a stereo track. If I use the Sonitus delay then the delayed hits pan to the left and right as they should. 

I haven't used that plug for a while but are you sure you have the Delay module button turned on? Just a long shot. I'd wonder why things weren't working on that thing then realize the module was off.

Hey Sharke ... I just fired it up, and you're right ... it's not doing anything. It shouldn't be panning, but it should be widening the delay ... it's not doing anything here when I use it on a mono source with Interleave set to Stereo. I can hear the stereo delay effect, but the 'Stereo' knob has no effect on width at all.

Probably should submit a bug report ...

Hi John,

The stereo knob controls the width of the delay and I wouldn't think you would need a stereo input because it controls the output of the effect ... but I could be wrong. I used a Mono .wav, but the output of the track was set to Stereo. Think of it as a stereo chorus, or stereo delay on a guitar.

To see if I was mistaken, I just tried it on a stereo file as well, and it has no effect on it either. Sharke's original file was stereo and it had no effect on that, that's why I tried it a different way.

I don't recall that the delays pan like you are thinking in the PX-64. I believe the stereo control makes the delay wider, not ping pong or delay to any particular side. Of course, I'm not at my DAW and writing this from memory...so, you know.

Does it actually do anything though? Check it out when you get the chance.
