Frequently Asked Questions on Specular Tempus
Q : If only one input is used will I get a mono output or stereo output?
A : You will get stereo outputs, just make sure the input goes to the Left Input (mono).
Q : Can I do tap-tempo on the pedal itself without using external tap tempo pedal?
A : Yes you can. There is an option to set footswitch B as a preset button or as a tap-tempo switch. When footswitch B is set as tep-tempo switch the number of presets available is 16 (instead of the full 32) : 1A, 2A, 3A, and so on. This restriction does not apply if you use MIDI controller or Aux switches to access your presets.
Q : I love my Specular Reverb V2, but this looks like a nice upgrade! Will I still be able to dial the sounds of V2 with Tempus?
A : Absolutely. All the sounds of SR V2 has been retained and expanded with additional parameters and functionalities for deeper tweaking.
Q : Does Specular Tempus have Global tempo mode?
A : Yes it does. You can set the scope of tempo uniquely for each preset. So for example you can set preset 1A and 2A to work on a local tempo while the other presets share a global tempo.
Q : When I call a preset that contains delay algorithm the tempo value doesn't seem to get updated to the tempo as was stored in that preset, what's going on?
A : You might have unintentionally activated Global tempo option for that presets. Make sure Local tempo option is selected instead.
Q : Does Specular Tempus have spillover when changing presets?
A : It has spillover only if both the source preset and destination preset contain the same algorithm AND the same virtual parameters setting.
Q : Does Specular Tempus accept MIDI Clock signal?
A : Yes, beginning with firmware V3.7.
Q : Your Triple Switch looks great, but I prefer to build my own switchbox, can you help me with the technical specs?
A : Here's a schematic you can use to build your own Aux switchbox.
