When Tempo Sync is activated, the time-based parameters that are available
for synchronization are changed to note duration values, and will sync to the
tempo of the host application using the displayed note value.
Note: Not all host applications support Tempo Sync. In such hosts, the tempo
sync features will not function.
Tempo Sync
Plugins
Tempo Sync is supported in the following plugins: Roland RE-201, UAD Nigel
and submodules (Phasor, ModFilter, TremFade, ModDelay, Echo), and UAD
CS-1 and submodules (DM-1, DM-1L, RS-1).
Activation To activate Tempo Sync, click the “Sync” button within the plugin interface.
The Sync button “LED” will illuminate and the time parameters will change
from a time-based display to a note value (see Figure 15).
Note: When Tempo Sync is activated, the plugin will automatically switch
the time or rate parameter(s) to the nearest available note value(s) given the
range of the parameter in question and the current tempo.
Available Note
Values
The note values that are available for selection are listed in Table 7 on
page 67. The values are listed in musical notation as a division of measures.
For example 1/4 = one quarter note, 1/1 = one whole note, 4/1 = four
whole notes, and so forth.
The available note values were chosen to allow syncing to tempo in odd time
signatures as well the common 4/4 time signature.
LFO rate parameters have their note values listed from longest to shortest,
since long note values correspond to slow LFO rates.
