<u>* '''Tap Delay</u> ''' - uses the tempo on the rig (tapped or manually entered), with separate L/R delay settings defined in terms of 16ths of a beat. This offers the most flexibility between the left and right delays, offering ratios (3:5 or 5:7) that are not found in the other delay types. However, it is not capable of offering repeats as quickly as the other delay types because it is always tied to a tempo setting that cannot go fast enough to allow such. <u>* '''Free Delay</u> ''' - can use the rig's tempo or can be manually specified when tempo is disabled. This offers repeats as short as 1 ms! However, there is only a single Time setting. A Ratio parameter determines the ratio of left repeats to right repeats, with the only options being quarters of the other (1:4, 2:4, 3:4, 4:4, 4:3, 4:2, 4:1). <u>* '''Analog Delay</u> ''' - is the exact same thing as Free Delay, with the exception that if you change the Time parameter while repeats are occurring the repeats are pitch shifted as occurs on an analog delay pedal. ''There are no tonal differences to this type compared to the other two.''

==== Legacy Delays ====
There are only 3 delay types, explained below. Note, although it may seem these feature separate L/R timings, these are actually two-tap delays, where the L and R delay trails always have the same offset timing between each other. This means you may not get the results you expect. For instance a 2:4 ratio delay is not the same thing as a 4:2 ratio delay with L/R reversed!
All three Delay types exhibit a tape delay simulation when using Feedback settings around 90% or higher. Anything lower is a straight digital delay.
