Using the Overloud GEM OTD - 2 is easy. First, make sure your system meets the requirements. Then, install the plugin or standalone application according to your preference. When you start using it, play around with the 6 - tap delay on each channel. You can pan them independently to the left or right to create different sound patterns. Use the presets designed from real mixing sessions as a starting point and then adjust the settings to fit your needs.
For those who want to create a unique sound, try the Stereo and Reverb Modes. In Cross mode, the delay regeneration is stereo - reversed, and in Verb mode, it's taken from multiple taps to give a reverb - like decay. The extended delay time with BPM sync can be very useful for creating rhythmic patterns that match your music.
As for note - taking, use the Scribble Strips on the plugin panel to jot down any ideas or settings you like. And if you make a mistake, don't worry, the multilevel undo - redo feature has got you covered.
When it comes to authorization, you can easily authorize OTD - 2 on up to three computers you own and one USB stick with a single - click software process. No need for a hardware key.
Remember to keep your system updated to ensure smooth operation. Also, if you're using it with a DAW, make sure your DAW version is supported. Have fun exploring all the amazing features of OTD - 2 to create your unique music!
