\"Tips<\/a>Frequently it is desirable to adjust the speed of your delay exactly to the tempo of a song.
\nWhile rack effects use midi for that, the more compact delay pedals do have tap tempo but they mostly lack a midi input.
\nFor those delays there are some interesting devices that make a synchronization possible anyhow.<\/p>\n

Disaster Area SMARTClock<\/h3>\n

Disaster Area is a manufacturer that is specialized in the invention of practical solutions for the pedalboard.
\nBesides extensive and complex loopers and switchers, the SMARTClock<\/a> is pretty interesting for delay fans.
\nThis device enables you to synchronize several delays with a tap tempo output.
\nIn addition, the SMARTClock can be integrated into a corresponding setup.
\nDiverse ratios allow to tap one delay to dotted eighth notes and a second one to quarter notes.
\nThe tap jacks can be configured differently and via corresponding adapter cables you can also control pedals which need TRS cables.<\/p>\n

Selah Effects Quartz Timer v2<\/h3>\n

The Selah Effects Quartz Timer v2<\/a> provides midi in and out and offers the opportunity to control several pedals at the same time, too.
\nA large display and a free of charge configurator facilitate the creation of a complete set list.
\nTo me it is quite interesting that the outputs can be configured especially for pedals that need a TRS.
\nBy this you won\u2019t need an additional adapter cable.
\nThe opportunity to adjust the number of the send taps is pretty helpful to control pedals that need only two taps.
\nIn addition, the Quartz Timer v2 offers the chance to set varying ratios for every output and by this to tap eighth, quarters, dotted and many more.
\nThe metronome input of the pedal allows a synchronization with a drum computer via audio click.<\/p>\n

Tapestry Audio \u2013 Time Traveler BPM Sync<\/h3>\n

The Tapestry Audio Time Traveler BPM Syn<\/a> is able to synchronize up to three pedals, has 10 storages, is compatible with normally open and normally closed tap tempo jacks and can be connected via TS or TRS cable.<\/p>\n

Molten Voltage \u2013 CLT- Sync<\/h3>\n

The Molten Voltage\u00a0 CTL Sync<\/a> represents a more simple way to synchronize to pedals via one incoming midi tempo.
\nIt lacks a clock but therefore it offers two pots to adjust different ratios for each output.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
