What are the Live Edit functions on NightSky?

NightSky provides a way to adjust several settings that do not have a dedicated knob or button. Live Edit Functions are saved per preset.

PRE-DELAY

  • Adjusts the time between the dry signal and the onset of the reverb.
    • Press and hold the TEXTURE button and turn the REVERB knob to adjust
    • (counter-clockwise = shorter PRE-DELAY, clockwise = longer PRE-DELAY).

GLIMMER GAIN

  • Adjusts the sensitivity of the glimmer effect to the input signal.
    • Press and hold the GLIMMER button and turn the REVERB knob to adjust.

DRIVE GAIN

  • Adjusts the sensitivity of the drive effect.
    • Press and hold the DRIVE button and turn the REVERB knob to adjust.

LOW PASS RESONANCE

  • Adjusts the filter Q, or sharpness of the resonant frequency. Press and hold the FILTER button and turn the REVERB knob to adjust. Higher values result in a peaking response. Lower values create a gradual roll-off.
