Thanks. I understand everything you are saying. FYI - I just posted the following at Ideascale. Perhaps it better explains what I'm looking to do. Also, for the record, this feature (the ability to tap as quickly as I can - perhaps not 100ms but fast all the same...) exists in all of my other equipment. Here's what I posted:
Here's my issue - I use the tap feature a lot and often change between 1/4 notes, dotted syncopations and a slap. With other pieces of equipment, I'm able to simply set the delay feature at a 1/4 note and tap however I want to determine the nature of the repeats. If I tap 'in time' it's a quarter note delay, if I tap every beat and a half it's syncopated, and if I tap very quickly it gives me a slapback. For me the issue lies with the fact that the Helix LT tops out at 240bpm - therefore, if I try to tap in a slapback it doesn't allow it. With every other delay unit I own, there is no maximum tempo (at least not that I've discovered), therefore I can govern the speed of the repeats as I choose. I know there are workarounds with the Helix but I feel this is an easy feature to address without affecting anyone negatively. Thanks!
