Subject: Tempo synced h/w Delay
Original Message Date: 02-Aug-04 @ 03:40 AM - Tempo synced h/w Delay
Are there such units out there?
I dont want anything special, just a tempo synced delay.
How would this bad-bitch be set up? I'd assume if it would happen it would be midi..maybe clock to host sequencer on a midi output from PC..fuck knows I'm probably dead off.
Thanks alot guys

I'm sure if I dug deep enough I could argue amp sims and distortion as delay efx as well... actually, digital distortion efx might be...
but what do I know?

A phaser is a little more complex than simply band-passes with LFOs. It's more like all-pass filters with LFOs on the frequencies, which are in fact...band-specific delays. Distortion is typically NOT a delay function. But back on topic...I'd say that you should try to find a used MPX1. They are not so expensive, especially considering what they can do for your sound. My next box will probably be either an MPX1 or a PCM70. Of course if you could afford it, I'd say that you should look at a TC 2290, but those are old, and expensive, still I doubt any delay sounds better. The Line6 is cool. My better half uses one, as well as lots of instrumentalists I know. It seems to work incredibly effectively, but doesn't sync to midi. You just tap the tempo, or knob it. Occasionally for a really cheesy delay, I'll use my Evolver. It does do synched delays, as does the AdrenaLinn, but the AdrenaLinn is more geared for external processing.

One of the coolest things you can do with delay and echo effects is sync them
up to your music (something we like to call the “Follow The Bouncing Ball
Effect”). The note value parameter of the Echo Pro makes this very easy to do,
once you’ve tapped in the tempo. But there’s an even easier way. If you’re in
the studio, and you’re using a MIDI sequencer, all you have to do is set that
sequencer to transmit MIDI Clock to the Echo Pro, and tell the Echo Pro to pay attention
to MIDI Clock. Once Echo Pro receives that MIDI Clock from the sequencer (or other
device, like a drum machine), it will lock right up to it. How can you do this, you ask?
1. Press the MIDI/SYS button to get into MIDI/SYS mode.
2. Turn the Program Select Knob until the display shows: “CL”.
3. Turn the Time knob until you see: “ON”.
4. Press MIDI/SYS to go back to Program mode.
When MIDI Clock is on, the Global Button will light, and will blink once a second to
indicate that your Echo Pro is not yet locked to MIDI Clock pulses if that is the case.
(Since most sequencers only send clock pulses while the sequence is actually running, it
is normal for this to be the case when the sequencer is stopped.) Once your Echo Pro
sees valid incoming MIDI clock, the Global button will light solid, and the Tap Tempo
button with start to flash at the current tempo of the sequencer. When you stop the
sequence, or if the Echo Pro loses the clock for more than two seconds, the Global
button will once again start to blink, but the Tap Tempo will stay at its last received
value."

just thought you guys might be missing out on a useable feature

to the dark side?

could be due to any number of factors though...but I suspect that part of it is about losing touch or the like...
anyway...
