    Default Digital Delay Formulae

    I believe there are formulae to apply to delay, dependant on your tempo. Does anyone have any advice around this please?

    Better off doing it from the hi-hat, that's more likely to be keeping 'time', not being syncopated <follows timmyo to patent office.

    Ta guys. The first link gave me the general gist. Obv, you don't always want such rigidity but I was interested in the diff.

    I have the luxury (sorta...) of being the only member of my umm... well not band, but there's just me anyhoo. So no need to glare at the drummer whenever he speeds up on the loud sections
