7 questions to David Packouz (Singular Sound)

7 questions toDavid Packouz is the man behind the great Aeros Loop Studio, the BeatBuddy and the MIDI Maestro and the founder of Singular Sound. I am very pleased that the American has given up the arms trade and is now concentrating entirely on his passion, music. But we didn’t talk about weapons and so David told me which pedal he would choose if he was only allowed to use one device for the rest of his life, what he might have done differently in retrospect and, above all, which question, which he finally wants to answer, but which no one has ever asked him before.

Is there tap tempo apps for analog delay pedals?

A readers’ question to the Dude:

For my Telecaster, I use an analog setup: A Mad Professor Sweet Honey Deluxe, a MXR Analog Chorus, a MXR Carbon Copy into a Fender Custom Vibro Champ Reverb.

At the moment, to me, it is pretty difficult to adjust the delay time of the Carbon Copy. Surely, I know that there are apps to tap the repeats manually and then they will be shown on the display. At that point, I can re-adjust the time, play again, tap again and so on.

My question regarding that issue is: Do you know an app that listens while I play a note, and then shows the respective delay time so I can re-adjust the time easily? Continue reading “Is there tap tempo apps for analog delay pedals?”
