Members Small Stone Posted March 10, 2011 Members Share Posted March 10, 2011 I have tap tempo on my SMM/H, but I'm disapointed each time I use it. Having the repeats on time just make them disapear, somehow. Also, in nature, you can't tap tempo echo... like when you are playing music in a church, for exemple.

Members notjonahbutnoah Posted March 10, 2011 Members Share Posted March 10, 2011 Haha, drummers.. Heh, started a thread last December asking what to get my drummer for Christmas. The very first response was "drool cup." Awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members 98 les paul Posted March 10, 2011 Members Share Posted March 10, 2011 I love having tap tempo, but then again, my delay volume is typically fairly loud so it matters a lot more for it to be in time with the song. If your delay is set to lower volumes, I imagine that it may not matter quite as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mhuxtable Posted March 10, 2011 Members Share Posted March 10, 2011 Yeah, if it's part of the guitar part rather than as an ambient effect, I think it's important to have a tap tempo. But if it's ambient effect, I think tap is detrimental because it brings the delay into focus too much.This.People who use the "always" or "never" opinion, I just To be so narrow minded is to be missing out on some really cool musical effects.

Members AnderMocs Posted March 10, 2011 Members Share Posted March 10, 2011 I've never played with a drummer who's time was good enough to stay locked to it, but it is quicker and easier just to punch in the time rather than try to find it on the dial.

Members conky Posted March 10, 2011 Members Share Posted March 10, 2011 Does tap tempo really matter? Not to me. I don't have the tap temp set up on my Timefactor. I can get by without it all together for longer repeats or short. Is it useless though? I don't think so. I can see where it would be useful in some situations.

Members Operator Posted March 10, 2011 Members Share Posted March 10, 2011 My delay pedal doesn't have it, but I miss it. I think you guys are taking tap tempo too literally; just because it says tap tempo doesn't mean you have to tap in quarter notes for your song to be "in time." I just like the option of being able to change delay time on the fly while playing; tap in a quick delay or a slow one or whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
