The Little Wizard Instructions
Digital Delay, the company that invented and patented the Crossover, has designed and manufactured The Little
Wizard to be the easiest to use multi-function delay box ever made. Contained in its small case are all the features racers have
come to expect from a Digital Delay box. Plus Digital Delay added a new driver interface to The Little Wizard that uses plain
English when changing Dial-ins or selecting how different functions of the box are used.
Getting Started
When The Little Wizard is first turned on, the Digital Delay logo screen is displayed for a couple seconds while the
unit goes through a power up routine. When done, the unit will go to the Dial-in and Delay screen, which is the first of five
main level screens. Each of the first three main level screens has at least one sublevel screen. The sublevel screens are where
changes to the units settings can be made. While on the main level, (level one) use the Setup button to cycle through the five
main screens, or use the Change button to access the sublevel screen of the current main level screen being displayed. When
in a sublevel screen, use the Change button to cycle through the different screens on that level, use the arrow buttons to make
changes to the units settings, use the Setup key to go to the next main level, or use the BRKT key to exit and return to the Dial-
in and Delay screen. All of the screens are listed on pages 4, 5, and 6 along with what each button will do for every screen.
After taking a little time to learn the screens, the basic help will give a quick reminder of how to use each screen.
