TUTORIAL 4: ADVANCED APPLICATIONS
The Smart Encoder:
The Smart Encoder™
functions allow you to perform real-time
tasks, such as tapping in new delay times or
spinning up and down the rotary effect, by
pressing the Edit and Encoder buttons. Using the encoders this way is called “smart” because
parameters can be automatically changed, instead of by having to manually scroll through a series of menus
and values. The table below lists all of the Smart Encoder functions and the effect-classes they are available
from. Assigning the functions is explained in the next section.

Reverb
With reverb effects, the Smart Encoder can be used to trigger a reverb test impulse. A reverb impulse is a
short, all-frequency burst for auditioning a reverb’s sound. Use it to test the quality as well as decay time and
front-end characteristics of your reverb programs. Pressing the Encoder on this option will trigger the sound.
Delay
With delay effects, the Smart Encoder can be used to tap in a new delay time or turn on the repeat hold
function.
The Tap Time option allows you to tap in new delay times. Press the Encoder at the desired tempo. The
number of times that you tap doesn’t matter; the DMV-PRO takes the average tempo. As you are tapping, you
will hear the new delay time and see its value in the Display. Repeat this process as often as necessary.
Repeat Hold infinitely loops the delayed sound. Play a phrase and then press the Encoder. The delayed
sound will repeat, at the rate of the delay time, until you press the Encoder again. When Repeat Hold is
activated, no other sound is allowed to go into the delay, so you can solo over the repeated phrase without
cluttering it up. Repeat Hold is not available while editing.
