This screen strikes me as “bad design”, and I never want to see it again. Please tell me there’s a setting to disable it (?).
I’ve searched the forum, but all I see are similar complaints going back years and years over the same issue.
As I tap a tempo, it opens a tempo screen. Sometimes this screen goes away after a few seconds. And that’s OK, I guess - as I long as I don’t need to press any other buttons while it’s displaying.
But most of the time, that screen gets stuck. This effectively takes my control away from the unit, no switches or anything until I physically reach down to ‘confirm’ the tempo change on the screen.
When it first happened, I was on stage. I thought “I’ll just stomp some buttons, and it should go away”. WRONG!!! Instead it started playing a loud click track / metronome through the PA.
So I’m not smart enough to figure it out. Please tell me how to make this screen go away forever and never come back.
I could swear that was the button I hit that “un-muted” the metronome tracks. Maybe my big fat foot hit something else at the same time. But I’ll check it out.
It’s definitely NOT as cool as never seeing that screen again, but if it works- I’ll take it!!
This person is asking for the screen to not come up at all. Which honestly makes a lot of sense to not have it take up the entire screen. It’s so annoying. Feels like the designers haven’t ever used the QC
It was bad when the click accidentally played out loud at my graduation. To fix this, I turn the click volume all the way down and send it to the headphones output
I can’t count the number of times I missed a scene change because the damn screen doesn’t go away fast enough. I don’t even get it why it exists. Would be great to just show the BPM on top of the regular screen, and not come up just because I’m adjusting the tap tempo…
100% on the comments in this thread! The first time I hit the wrong button and unmuted the click sound at a gig I didn’t realize it was coming from my gear!! I will definitely be using the click volume/reroute workaround for that. To summarize what is needed here is: the ability to display (or hide) the BPM in a small corner of the Gig view and grid view screens, the ability prevent the Tempo screen from appearing at all!, the ability to tailor how long the Tempo screen occupies the display before returning to hell Is there no feature request already for this issue? If not, I’ll create it
I won’t speak for h2loh, but I frequently use 240 bpm to approximate a slapback echo. I wish I could get 300-400. Not sure I could tap 400, but I can definitely tap faster than 300 if I use my finger.
I primarily live out of ONE preset. I have an expression pedal controlling multiple parameters, including the delay’s feedback and mix settings. In the heel position, I get one repeat at a relatively low mix level. In the toe position, it’s full-on Pink Floyd. In between, I have a whole world of combinations.
For songs where I need slapback, I jam the tap switch as fast as I can with my foot, and it tops at 240. I’d prefer if I could go faster (300-400 would be ideal, even if I can only tap that by hand). I look silly doing it, but that’s no one else’s concern hahaha
Slap back echo is typically considered to be around 100 ms, give or take. You are reeeeally making it more difficult for yourself if you’re trying to achieve that A) with tap tempo, and B) while using BPM instead of milliseconds.
Anyway folks, vote on the link above if you haven’t already.
You could just have a block that’s slapback. No one dials in slapback with bpm as the reference, it’s always ms, esp because it’s super fast and not tempo synced exactly
