I notice in many live songs..Tim speeds up and slows down his loops with a turn of a knob. Uhm, just wondering..how does he do this? I have a Boss DD-6 and a Line 6 DL-4, I thought he used those to do it..I can't figure it out though.

Please let me know, thanks.

It has to do with the actual recomputing of the delay time in the DD-5 and the DD-6. They're both different, as the DD-6 wasn't designed to have the delay time changed while still holding the data within its repeat interval intact. That's why if you try it on the DD-6, you get kind of a warping sound like your delay loop got hit with a rubber hammer and went to the twilight zone and ate a fucked-up-muffin.

Yeah, I can do that with the dd-6. When Tim does it, he can return it to the original sound and original pitch. When you do the feedback thing and mess with the D.Time, you can't get back to the first tone, it's all crazy sounding. You know what I'm talking about?

I believe with the DD-5 if you turn the F.Back knob all the way to the right (max) then it will keep repeating whatever you play. Therefore when you start turning the Delay knob up or down you get that sound you're talking about; slow or fast. But I may be wrong. It's been a while since I messed around with it. I may go home and fiddle with it tonight.

Thanks guys. Matt, thats what I do too. I thought you could do it with the loop also, maybe I'm wrong. If anybody finds anything else out, let me know.

Thanks again.

I can do that with my DL4 but only for the delay, not the loop. If you set up a big delay and turn the control knob so that the delaying repeated pattern is of sufficient volume, it will keep going and you'll have time to reach down and change the timing of it, effectively screwing up the listener's experience and providing a spaced-out aural attack.

wow, I had a lot of verbs in that sentence.

I believe he uses his Boss DD-5. I have one of those and can get that sound by turning the delay time knob. Here is the link to the boss dd-5.
