Two Analog Delay Questions

I've been using the Delay Tape Sync effect and I find that, on rare occasions (once every other day?) it seems to send the box into a high CPU usage situation, and audio and UI both go on the fritz. I am jerking the parameters around quite a bit for this piece and cannot afford to have this happen live, so I have to give that up. Too bad cuz it sounds great.

Has anyone else run into this and knows a way around?

Second and only peripherally related: What does the Ramp control on the Analog Delay Sync do? I cannot hear any effect from this control.

TIA

I've used the tape delay quite a bit for the last few years and haven't had any issues at all really. I tend to use it as a bus effect though, your typical triplet dub delay thing so I dont mess with it once its set.

And yeah aint got a damn clue what Ramp does. Doesn't sound like it does anything here either. I thought maybe it was like the 'swell' control on an Echorec but it doesn't do what an Echorec does so?

WHAT OS are you running ? I’m still running 2.8.1 & I have not had such problems but I favor the HP ANALOG delay. when it comes to sync’d delays I favor the AIR DIFF DELAY, that diffusion knob definitely works for my ears.

As usual, the FX designer was trying to emulate a real artifact in an analog device. I imagine if we could procure the real effect pedal/box, we might understand . . . . . . .

I am using 2.10. I have no idea if this occurred in earlier versions, and I can't downgrade because this set depends on the Mellotron synth.

This also happens with the Delay Analog Sync. I guess that makes sense since it probably shares much of the code with the Tape delay. I have not had this problem with the Air delay, but that does not pitch shift as the delay time is changed, which is essential for the effect I am looking for. (We're doing a cover of Bela Lugosi's Dead for a Halloween show.)

I believe I will be giving up on this. I can get the same effect by sending the sound to my Nord G2 and running the delays in there.

While I appreciate new tools, features. This is the kind of stuff INMUSIC needs to fix ASAP

My Go To Delay is the...

Air Delay

Mix set to +/-30%
Delay Ratio set to Dead Center (100/100)
Then I play with the Time Delay 1/4 or 1/8D

This use to be the Initial Preset but they f*cked it up around...ver 2.7

Seriously, what was their reasoning for that!?

Some Technician who had the Code opened up while fixing something in an Update, must have forgot to set everything back to Dead Center
