Delay Designer Tap Creation Suggestions
The fastest way to create multiple taps is to use the Tap pads. If you have a specific rhythm
in mind, you might find it easier to tap out your rhythm on dedicated hardware controller
buttons, instead of using mouse clicks. If you have a MIDI controller, you can assign the
Tap pads to buttons on your device. For information about assigning controllers, see the
Control Surfaces Support manual.
Note: Whenever you click the Start Tap pad, it automatically erases all existing taps. Given
this behavior, after you create your initial taps you will want to create subsequent taps
by clicking in the Identification bar.
After a tap has been created, you can freely adjust its position, or you can remove it if it
was created accidentally. For details, see Moving and Deleting Taps in Delay Designer.
Identifying Taps in Delay Designer
Taps are assigned letters, based on their order of creation. The first tap to be created is
assigned as Tap A, the second tap is assigned as Tap B, and so on. Once assigned, each
tap is always identified by the same letter, even when moved in time, and therefore
reordered. For example, if you initially create three taps they will be named Tap A, Tap B,
and Tap C. If you then change the delay time of Tap B so that it precedes Tap A, it will
still be called Tap B.
