The warp/pitch-warble is unavoidable on the analog delays, true. (hopefully they’ll get around to our Feature Request for Transparent Tap Tempo)

> After using the QC live, I’ve had several instances where have to tap tempo in the middle of a song. This results in natural pitch fluctuations inherent when changing the time setting on a delay. On the helix and other digital delay pedals, there is an option for “transparent” tempo, which shifts without causing these artifacts and fluctuations. This should be a setting where users can opt to have this apply or not.

but for self-oscillation I use an XP-workaround where the bypass and feedback are linked to the exp pedal. Then you can activate and oscillate (100% feedback) the delay simultaneously. Then roll back the XP and the delay turns off. Would that work for you?
