Subject:Dotted 8th Delay Effect?

I just upgraded to Acid Pro 3.0 from Acid Music 3.0. I was wondering if there is an easy way to reproduce the dotted 8th delay effect with Acid Pro 3.0. This was a default effect with Music. I have tried the Simple Delay & Multi-Delay but cannot seem to re-create this effect. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I believe the formula for figuring out delay so that it's in sync was:

(60,000/BPM) x (note value) = (ms duration)

So, in your case, if your project was 120 BPM, and since a dotted 8th is .75 of a beat, the formula would be:

(60,000/120) x .75 = 375 milliseconds

Try that.

HTH,

Thanks MD for your response. So if I understand you right I should adjust the DELAY TIME according to the formula you posted.Thanks again
