Tapping the Tempo 

One of the best things about the Holy Era Tap Tempo Delay is 

the ability to set the tempo by tapping either the on-board 

tap tempo footswitch, or an external footswitch. The Holy 

Era’s tap tempo footswitch can also be connected to other 

compatible devices to set their tempo too. 

The Tap Tempo Footswitch 

Tap four times to register the tempo accurately. The Tempo 

LED will light solid while the tempo is being tapped. Turn the 

Time control to override the tapped tempo. 

The Tap Ratio Switch 

The Tap Ratio switch can take the tempo tapped and change 

it, allowing you to get an anthemic dotted eighth note delay 

or a slapback faster than any foot is capable of tapping. The 

switch has three settings: 

 

Switch up – tempo is doubled (tapping 60bpm will 

register 120bpm)
