Ted's DD-20 Delay times; "beg the question";



The DD-20 settings I {Ted} usually use are fairly simple:

(1)          625ms (or sometimes 1250ms) @ 95% to 99% feedback
(2)          2.5 seconds @ 95% to 100% feedback
(3)          5 seconds @ 100% feedback
(4)          10 seconds @ 100% feedback
(5)          20 seconds @ 90% feedback

I sometimes vary it by putting the 5, 10 and 20 second loops in slots
2, 3 and 4 and put another 5 second loop in reverse mode in slot 
5 that fades out fairly quickly (a nice way to end or signal a major 
transition in a piece.

I never worked much with the tap-tempo mode on the DD-20.
I suppose there's a way to set up loops that are multiples of
a basic length that way too. I just never got around to it.

--->My other post had to do with the phrase "beg the question".
It doesn't mean what a lot of people think.
It DOES have to do with circular logic.
Nit picking aside, thanks to all for their insight and information.

PS I am SOOO close to buying a DD-20, but I hate to have to sell my DL-4 to
do it.  Cash flow a problem--but the time will come!
