Using the TAP function
This function lets you change the value of certain time related parameters or trigger an effect by tapping on the ENTER (TAP) button.
The parameter which responds to the TAP function is different for each effect, and not all effect have compatible parameters. However, many time related parameters (such as Delay Time) or parameters activated by a trigger (such as Key Trigger) are designed to work with the TAP function. (Refer to the separate Effect Parameter Guide for specific information.)
The TAP function works the same in either play mode or edit mode, but not can not be used when any other modes (such as SYSTEM or SAVE) are active.
To use TAP with time related parameters (“Time” below)
Select a program containing a compatible effect, then tap ENTER (TAP) repeatedly to enter the desired tempo.
The effector’s tap editor measures the timing of the last two taps an sets the corresponding parameter accordingly. You can also change the ratio between your taps and the actual parameter value (see page 18 for details).
To use TAP as a trigger (“Trigger” below)
Press ENTER (TAP) at the point where you want to activate the effect.
