Tap Delay
The Voodu Valve allows you to change the current delay time settings for the Delay 1 and Delay 2
parameters while you are playing by connecting a momentary footswitch to the rear panel FOOTSWITCH
jack. When the Footswitch function is activated, tapping the footswitch will change the current delay time
based on the amount of time that passes between taps. The Voodu Valve will detect the amount of time
between any two taps that are less than one second apart
(i.e., if more than one second passes after the
first tap, two more taps - less than one second apart - will be required to change the delay time again)
.
After the Voodu Valve detects the length of time between each tap, it then multiplies or divides that
time based on the type of note stored in each of the DELAY 1 and DELAY 2 parameters of the Footswitch
function. The resulting delay time can be:
one-fourth of the time between taps (SIXTEEN)
one-half of the time between taps (EIGHTH)
two-thirds of the time between taps (TRIPLET)
equal to the time between taps (QUARTER)
two times the amount of time between taps (HALF), or
four times the amount of time between taps (WHOLE)
The maximum delay time the Voodu Valve provides is 1000ms, therefore the Tap Delay feature
will default to a lower parameter value when the time between taps requires a delay time over 1000ms.
For example, if the WHOLE setting is stored for the Delay 1 parameter and the time between taps is
300ms, a delay time of 1200ms would be required (i.e. 300ms x 4). Because the maximum delay time is
1000ms, the Voodu Valve will default to the next lower multiplier (HALF) and provide a delay time two-
times the delay time detected (600ms). If the delay time was over 1000ms again, the unit would then
provide the QUARTER note equivalent.
NONE can also be selected for the Delay 1 and Delay 2 parameters so that they will not respond to
taps on the footswitch.

Turn the FUNCTION SELECT control to "FOOTSWITCH".
Turn the PARAMETER SELECT control one step clockwise to display the current momen-
tary footswitch "TYPE" (normally open or normally closed).
