Hello.
Is there any feature to minimize the pitch-shifting warble when using tap tempo with delays?
My old device had a transparent/accurate option to minimize those artifacts:
“Accurate” respects the natural pitch fluctuations inherent when changing a real delay pedal’s time knob; “Transparent” minimizes these artifacts.”
Thanks.

Yes, there is. You have to select the right algorithm. Some are are programmed to emulate ‘pitch’ / speed effects in classic gear: tape delay, as one example.
Others have a short crossfade between the changing delay times. The Digital Delay & Reverse algorithms ‘expose’ that parameter, so you can adjust just how long that crossfade takes (within a range).

Thanks for the info.
I will take a look on the digital delay again. It is not my first option though.

It’s not confined to just those two algorithms I mentioned. Those are the only two where crossfade is adjustable. I don’t have a solid list of which delays ‘pitchbend’ and which ones crossfade. I want to say it’s about half & half.
It’s easy enough to test out: pick an algo, play a note, spin the delay time parameter. For example, I believe all of the PitchFactor algorithms with delay capabilities, crossfade. Many of the TimeFactor ones ‘bend’. The newer ones … a mixture of each type.

Funny, the pitch-shifting warble is a bit of a problem for me too. I checked and the Tape Delay algorithm on the H9 sounds the same as the corresponding algorithm on the H90, except that there is no ‘warble’ on the H9 version!

I am having a problem with this as well (with both MIDI clock and tap tempo) – currently using the digital delay algorithm to manage it as best as possible, but missing being able to seamlessly use the Tape/Vintage algorithms I used on my Timefactor (changes via manual or externally triggered tap tempo on the Timefactor worked with no warp or artifact issues)
