UAD Powered Plug-Ins Manual - 85 - Chapter 8: Tempo Sync
Range Limits
Some parameters in Tempo Sync mode cannot access the entire note value
range in Table 4, because their maximum values would always be out of
range above certain note values (assuming a maximum usable tempo of 300
BPM; 250BPM for Roland RE-201). These parameter limits are:
• DM-1, RS-1 time – 300ms: maximum 1/4D
• DM-1L time – 2400ms: maximum 3/1
• Nigel Echo time – 1200ms: maximum 1/1D
• Nigel Tremolo fade in/onset – 4000ms: maximum 5/1
• Roland RE-201 Head 1 range: 5/32 – 1/64
• Roland RE-201 Head 2 range: 1/4 – 1/32
• Roland RE-201 Head 3 range: 1/2T – 1/32D
Entering Values
In addition to adjusting the parameter knob, the two following methods can
be used for entering Tempo Sync values.
Arrow Keys
After clicking the parameter to select it, the arrow keys can be used to scroll
through available note values.
Text Entry
Direct text entry is also available (see “Text Entry” on page 79). Any notation
values can be entered (fraction or decimal), and the values are automatically
converted to the nearest appropriate setting.
For example: If 3/4 or 6/8 is entered using text entry, 1/2D is displayed be-
cause a dotted half note equals three quarter notes, which is the duration of
one measure in a time signature of 3/4 or 6/8. If 12/8 is entered with text
entry, 1/1D is displayed because a dotted whole note equals six quarter
notes, which is the duration of one measure in a time signature of 12/8 (or
two measures in a time signature of 3/4 or 6/8).
This means you can create a tempo sync duration of one measure for any time
signature by simply typing in the time signature (assuming there is a match in
the beat table).
