Example:

Press FACTORY DEFAULT.

OPERATION
Note that there is a factory default setting for each
effect sub-type.

the tapped tempo.
Example:
Tapped tempo is often used with delay. Let us assume
the tempo of the song is 120 BPM. Tap 1/4 notes.
If the selected subdivision is set to 1/4 note the
actual delay time will be 500 ms.
If the selected subdivision is set to 1/8 note triplets
the actual delay time will be 166 ms.
