Tap Tempo

[Pfadzy]

I absolutely LOVE the Helix.  I have one question with it though.  I am a worship leader and have really enjoyed the snapshots mainly to change my tempos for delays and what not.  I like to try and have all of my tempos preset so it's one less thing I have to worry about in the moment.  The thing I'm not fond of is that when I touch the tempo and then use knob 6 to set my tempo, that it takes so long to actually get programed in.  I don't have this quite as much anymore now that I'm using snapshots, but when I am initially setting it up it does take a while.  

 

Is there a way to have it so that when you turn that know that it will cycle through bpm in whole times and not by the tenth?  Is there a setting somewhere or can Line6 develop that option?  I don't know about other people, but I rarely play at a 96.3 bpm, so I would rarely dial in a tenth.  Having the option to would be nice, but not needed for my application.  Thanks!

Might tapping in the time with the tap switch work out better?

That works most of the time for me, but there are some songs we do at church where I have to have the tempo dialed in exactly to get the right delay feedback timing ( for example: Jesus Culture, Never Gonna Stop Singing). Right now if I need a specific tempo, I create a preset that is set to that tempo. I generally play just one generic preset for everything, so I just make a copy of that preset with a different tempo, and I am good to go. 

 

I like the idea about the tenths, but maybe make it in divisions of 1/2 bpm, like scrolling through 100, 100.5, 101, etc...
