42 Chapter 2 Delay
Activating Sync Mode
Sync mode is turned on or off by clicking the Sync button in the Sync section.
An orange ring is shown around the Sync button when Sync mode is on, and a grid
that matches the chosen Grid parameter value is shown in the identification bar.
Once Sync mode is activated, all taps will move towards the closest delay time value on
the grid. When you subsequently create or move taps, they will always move in
increments based on the current grid setting, or will be created at a “snapped” position
on the grid.
Setting the Grid Resolution
The Grid menu offers several grid resolutions, which correspond to musical note
durations. The grid resolution, along with the project tempo, determines the length of
each grid increment.
To set the grid resolution:
m Click the Grid field, and choose the desired grid resolution from the pop-up menu.
As you change grid resolutions, you will notice that the increments shown in the
identification bar will change accordingly. This also determines a step limitation for all
taps.
As an example: The current project tempo is set to 120 beats per minute, and the
Delay Designer Grid parameter is set to 1/16th notes. At this tempo and grid resolution,
each grid increment is 125 milliseconds apart. If Tap A is currently set to 380 ms, turning
on Sync mode would immediately shift Tap A to 375 ms. If you subsequently moved
Tap A forward in time, it would snap to 500 ms, 625 ms, 750 ms, and so on.
At a resolution of 1/8th notes, the steps are 250 milliseconds apart, so Tap A would
automatically snap to the nearest division (500 ms), and could be moved to 750 ms,
1000 ms, 1250 ms, and so on.
