4. Assign Footswitch
Each footswitch can turn on or off one of the 20 presets
assigned to it in the pedal.
5. Note Subdivision
With Note Subdivision, you can customize the subdivision of delay (echo) time. In BIAS Delay,
there are 3 different (the most commonly used) note divisions on the control panel. With the
BIAS Pedal app, you can access many more subdivision options.
These are the note subdivisions available on the control panel:
・ Quarter note ・ Dotted 8th-note ・ 8th note triplet
The note division is affected by your BPM (beats per minute) and Tap Tempo settings in
establishing the delay time. Please refer to the Tap Tempo and BPM section immediately
below.
6. Tap Tempo and BPM
BIAS Delay comes with a Tap Tempo footswitch that allows you to quickly set the BPM value for
the delay effect. The time interval between your two taps represent a beat and sets the BPM*
value. To calculate the delay time, take the BPM value and multiply it by the ratio of the note
factor.
For example, when the NOTE is set to dotted 8th-note and you tap twice in 0.5 sec time:
2 taps / 0.5sec = 1 beat / 0.5 sec = 120 beats / 60 sec = 120 BPM
So, the delay time at 120 BPM using a dotted 8th-note = 60/(120x4/3)
= 0.375 sec for each echo
*BPM = Beats per minute
