Create Delay Designer taps in Logic Pro for Mac
You can create new delay taps in three different ways: by using the Tap pads, by creating them in the Identification bar, or by copying existing taps.
The fastest way to create multiple taps is to use the Tap pads. If you have a specific rhythm in mind, you might find it easier to tap out your rhythm on dedicated hardware controller buttons, instead of using mouse or trackpad clicks. If you have a MIDI controller, you can assign the Tap pads to buttons on your device. For information about assigning controllers, see the Control Surfaces Support Help.
After a tap has been created, you can adjust its position, or you can remove it. See Edit Delay Designer taps.
Taps are assigned letters, based on their order of creation. The first tap to be created is assigned as Tap A, the second tap is assigned as Tap B, and so on. Once assigned, each tap is always identified by the same letter, even when moved in time, and therefore reordered. For example, if you initially create three taps, they are named Tap A, Tap B, and Tap C. If you then change the delay time of Tap B so that it precedes Tap A, it is still called Tap B.
The Identification bar shows the letter of each visible tap. The Tap Delay field of the Tap parameter bar displays the letter of the currently selected tap or the letter of the tap being edited when multiple taps are selected (for details, see Edit Delay Designer taps).
