TAP TEMPO

The Tap Tempo footswitch has two functions - to set the tempo 

by tapping the switch to a rhythm and also as a Preset selector.

SETTING THE TAP TEMPO MODE TO ‘TAP TEMPO’ 
(BLUE LED)

To configure the Tap Tempo Switch to update the delay time (if it 

is currently set to increment the Preset and the Tap Tempo LED is 

Green):
1.  Press and hold the Tap Tempo Switch for 1 second, until the  

  Tap Tempo LED turns Blue and the Preset LEDs sweep left)
The Tap Tempo Switch will now set the delay time according to 

the current Subdivision setting.

The Tap Tempo Switch will now increment the Preset and scroll 

through Presets 1-8 and loop back to 1.

PRESETS

The METAVERSE has 128 Preset locations to allow the saving of 

favorite settings (Presets), 8 of which can be saved and quickly 

recalled by the front panel Preset switch or via the Tap Tempo 

Switch in Preset increment mode. 
 

There are 4 LED’s above the Preset switch to indicate which of 

the 8 front panel Presets are active. Presets 1-4 are shown with 

one LED on and three off, Presets 5-8 are three on and one off.
