Differences between Tap Factory and other delays  
GETTING STARTED  
Scroll Wheel Support  
In many aspects, Tap Factory is a fairly normal delay-unit: What comes in goes out again a  
bit later. What sets Tap Factory apart from other delay-units is the way it can alter the  
delayed sound and its ability to create very short and precise delay times.  
If you are using a host application that supports this feature, all parameters support  
scrolling on both Windows XP and Mac OS X. Simply place the mouse over a parameter  
value field and use the Scroll Wheel to increment/decrement the associated parameter-value.  
Tap Factory covers common delay parameters like delay time, level and panning.  
Additionally you will find the parameters Shade, Feedback and Phase. Feedback is  
common to most multi-tap delays and echo-units, but as you will discover the way the  
feedback works in TF is rather unique.  
Key Commands  
In most host applications, plug-ins support keyboard commands for certain functions.  
The following key commands are available for all plug-in parameters.  
Key Commands in Mac OS  
Reset To Default = Alt  
Key Commands in Windows  
When you hear a natural echo, you do not hear an exact representation of the original  
sound. The sound is obviously a little weaker in level, but it is also altered in a few other  
ways: The sound is diffused, and the timbre has changed. And this effect is what the  
“Shade” parameter recreates: timbre and diffusion of the delay taps.  
Reset To Default = Shift & Control  
DSP USAGE  
For each open instance of the Tap Factory on PowerCore devices (Express, PCI mkII,  
Unplugged, Compact, FireWire, X8 and PowerCore 6000), the following DSP usage applies:  
If a sound hits a plaster wall, the resultant echo has a small dip in the high and low  
frequency, but the amount of diffusion is very low and almost nonexistent. If the same  
sound hits a rock face, the echo will have a lot of diffusion because of the surface  
structure of the rocks, but there will only be very subtle coloring of the sound. Every  
material has its own “audio-fingerprint” so to say, and that is why the sound in a  
bedroom is different from the sound in an office even when the two rooms have the same  
size and proportions. The “Feedback” parameter is routing a portion of the signal back to  
the start of the delay-tap-chain. However, please exercise caution when setting up  
Feedback as the overall level can get really loud!

INTRODUCTION  
INTRODUCTION  
and turn the phase for one of the taps, you will get the illusion of the sound coming from  
behind you. Like other phase-turning tricks, this one works well, although it is not usable  
in mono – the tap will simply disappear. But this trick can be employed even if the delay  
times are not exactly the same. In that situation, you will get a more subtle 3D effect,  
which also works in mono. In general, it is somewhat difficult to predict the results of  
turning a tap’s phase. But if you for instance have a lot of very narrow delay times set up,  
and they are creating a nasty comb filtering effect, try to flip the phase of some of the  
taps. This will often clear up the problems.  
But you can also do a rough estimate: The first sound hitting the microphone is the direct  
signal. This will have a level of 0 dB and an angle of 0 degrees.  
The subsequent reflections to reach the microphone will be coming from the floor and the  
ceiling. However we can leave them out since these reflections are very close to the direct  
signal, they are very loud, and they often create an ugly comb filtering effect. The  
reflections from the walls are next: The sound travels 2.8 meters before hitting the wall  
between the source and the microphone. Then it travels another 2.8 meters from the wall  
before finally hitting the microphone. That is a total of 5.6 meters, equaling 16 to 17 ms.  
The angle is likely about 45 degrees left. Since the sound traveled nearly three times the  
distance of the direct signal, you should turn the level down about 9 dB. Now add 40 %  
Shade to the tap and go to Shade-Settings. Here, you set the Diffusion to “Normal” and  
make a dip in the high frequencies with the EQ.  
Creating a “natural” room ambience  
If you wish to create a natural ambience, you need an application to calculate the  
reflections (delay taps) in the room you wish to simulate. The reflections depend on the  
room’s shape and size and on the position of both the sound source and the “listener”.  
The color of the reflections will depend on the different surfaces in the room, and their  
precise absorption coefficient. By calculating these reflections, you can create a very  
natural audio environment. However most of us do not have such an application, so we  
must rely on a few rules, a rough estimate – and our ears.  
Now you can create a new reflection just like this one, with only tiny variations in delay  
time and level, and let it arrive from the other side – for instance, at an angle of 40  
degrees from the right.  
The next wave of reflections arrives from the wall behind the sound source. Some  
reflections will hit the back wall first and then the sidewall before hitting the microphone.  
Try to continue the calculations by yourself. Look at the illustration. If you think the room  
needs a little extra, try to flip the phase on some of the taps. You can also try to add some  
Feedback to some of the taps.  
A few “rules of thumb”: Sound travels at 340 meters per second in air. We also know that  
by doubling the distance to a sound source, its sound pressure level (SPL) will be reduced  
by 50%.  
Classic echo – with a twist  
Example:  
The sound source is 5 meters away from you and its SPL is -4 dB. You now move the sound  
source 5 meters further away, so it is now 10 meters away from you. The SPL will now be  
-8 dB.  
If you wish to simulate a classic tape-echo effect, you can benefit from the Shade  
parameter. Create a delay with one tap, turn the Feedback up to 80 % and set Shade to  
50%.  
Furthermore sound pressure will decrease 0.03 dB/m just by traveling in air.  
On the “Shade Settings” tab, set Diffusion to “Normal”. Next, turn the EQ’s high band and  
low band down until you get a soft and diffused sound. This kind of delay will often blend  
much better in a mix than clean, unaltered delays. And in echo-heavy genres like dub, you  
will in fact get closer to the original tape-echo sound by using “Shade”.  
These facts can help us creating credible ambiences.  
An example: The sound source is in a room 4 meters  
wide and 8 meters long, and it is located 2 meters  
from the back wall and centered between the two  
sidewalls. The distance between the source and the  
microphone is 4 meters. The exact calculation of all  
the reflections in this example will take quite a bit of  
time, a spreadsheet and good old Pythagoras to get  
right.  
Enjoy!

1 – Undo/Redo  
9 – Screen selector  
The Tap Factory is a tool with endless possibilities – so don’t hesitate to experiment and  
be creative. If something goes wrong, you have up to 20 undo steps. Undo/redo also  
includes the randomization and A/B functions.  
Select either “All Taps” or “Shade” Settings.  
Via the “All Taps” screen and its sub-pages (Level, Pan, Feedback, Shade and Pan) you  
have full individual parameter control of all taps.  
On the “Shade Settings” screen you can set attenuation of any frequency area. The  
attenuation is applied to all taps.  
2 – L/R Mirror  
The L/R MIRROR button is a toggle that mirrors the delay-tap pattern at the Y-axis  
(Left/Right).  
The pattern is mirrored instantly. The status of the button is not saved as part of a  
preset (while of course the consequences of having the key pressed are stored).  
3 – Shade Factor  
The Shade settings set on the Shade Settings page are global settings. However, with this  
multiplier it is possible to increase or decrease the effect of Shade settings on each delay  
tap.  
4 – Feedback Factor  
Feedback can be set for each tap individually. However, with this multiplier it is possible  
to multiply the current feedback settings on all taps at the same time and thereby adjust  
the individual taps relatively. Notice that when the feedback-sum is above 100 %, the  
indicated feedback percentage and the feedback factor turns red. Read more on page 19.  
10 – Meters  
Meters on the left are input meters and meters on the right are output meters.  
11 – Output level knob  
5 – Delay Multiplier  
Controls the output level of the plug-in. Normally, you will set this to 100 % and control  
the level of the delays in your host software.  
This parameter multiplies the value of the 24 individual taps. The “x 1.00” setting means:  
“What you see is what you get” when monitoring the delay settings.  
If you set the Delay Multiplier knob to another value than “x 1.00” and press “APPLY”, the  
individual tap-delays are updated to the calculated delay-time, and the delay multiplier is  
reset to “x 1.00”, indicating that again the shown tap values are what you hear.  
12 – Wet/Dry mix knob  
Use this knob to set the mix between the wet and dry signal components. When using  
the plug-in as a send effect, use the 100 % wet setting. When you use the plug-in as an  
insert effect, you can use the wet/dry mix to set the effects level.  
6 – Apply button for Delay Multiplier  
13 – Delay, Pan, Feedback, Shade & Phase parameters – and how to adjust these.  
When you press the “APPLY” button, all taps are recalculated according to the Delay  
Multiplier factor, and the Delay Multiplier is reset to “x 1.00”.  
These parameters can be set for each individual delay tap. There are two basic ways of  
adjusting the parameter values:  
7 – Input level trim knob  
Adjusting a single tap:  
Use this knob to adjust the input level by monitoring the input meters.  
Either click on the graphical indication of a tap using the arrow tool or click on tap  
8 – Panic button  
numbers 1 to 24  
. Then use the knobs to adjust the individual delay parameters.  
If you have set too many taps with too high a feedback setting – this button may be  
handy. It will stop all delay taps immediately.

Phase page:  
Adjusting several taps:  
When you would like to adjust e.g. the Level or the Pan or Feedback for several taps, you  
can use the Crosshair  
or the Freehand  
drawing tools in the area where the  
parameter values are displayed.  
When you select the Crosshair tool , you can draw in straight lines while pressing the  
left mouse button. This is an excellent tool e.g. for creating a smooth fade-out over the  
taps on the levels page.  
The freehand tool  
only changes the value of the bar it currently touches.  
We suggest you try out both tools and get comfortable with this intuitive way of entering  
values.

14 – Tap select  
There are 24 Direct Tap select buttons representing the 24 taps. You can also select a tap  
simply by grabbing the tap in the grid.  
15 – Selection Tabs for Parameter Pages  
Although all delay tap parameters can be set using the six parameter knobs, you will get a  
better overview for each parameter category by selecting the parameter pages. To select

16 – Parameter Randomization menu  
21 – Tempo indicator  
Use this drop-down menu to select one or more delay parameters to randomize.  
The tempo is displayed either in BPM or milliseconds. If you set the Tempo Sync  
parameter to “On”, this field will always indicate the current tempo of the song. When  
Tempo Sync is set to “Off, the tempo of the Tap Factory can be entered directly here.  
Click on the small up/down arrows to increase or decrease the tempo in 1 BPM steps.  
17 – GO! (Activate randomize )  
Press “GO!” to activate the randomize feature.  
With the randomize feature a given set of parameter values can be randomized.  
22 – Tap Pad (for Tempo or Rhythm tap)  
Depending on the selected Tap mode (see 24) you can enter either the global tempo or  
a rhythm by tapping this button.  
18 – Delay Grid settings  
Delay taps can be set at random or in a grid. A grid consists of a simple sub-division,  
such as 1/4, 1/8 etc., or a sub-division combined with a “dot” or “triplet” value.  
23 – Zoom Factor buttons  
Zoom tool for the grid allows you to zoom and do fine adjustments.  
24 – Tap Mode  
Tempo mode:  
In Tempo Mode, you can enter the global delay tempo by rhythmically clicking (tapping)  
the Tap Pad. Typically you will tap the tempo in quarter notes. Tapping two times is  
enough, but tapping more times will increase the accuracy (as Tap Factory calculates the  
tempo as the average of all the taps, not just the last two).  
Dotted or Triplets  
Press these buttons to set the grid to  
either dotted or triplet notes.  
Rhythm Mode:  
In Rhythm mode you can enter delay taps as a rhythm.  
The restrictions are that you can set a maximum of 24 taps within 9 seconds.  
25 – Tools  
Three different tools are available for setting and adjusting parameter values directly in  
the tap display. One tool is always selected. To switch between the tools, simply click one  
of the three icons.  
19 – Delay Format: BPM or milliseconds  
Selection tool: This is the default selection tool. Use it to select a single delay tap  
by clicking on the tap. To select multiple taps, press and hold the left mouse  
button and drag the tool around several delay taps.  
The tempo can be indicated in beats per minute (BPM) or milliseconds. If you change the  
delay format from milliseconds to BPM, the delay time for each tap will be quantized  
according to the selected grid. If you do not want this, simply click the UNDO button.  
Crosshair tool: This tool can be used to adjust parameter values by drawing  
straight lines in the tap display.  
20 – Tempo Sync on/off  
When you set this parameter to “On”, the plug-in’s tempo will be synchronized to the  
host tempo. If you set it to “Off, its tempo can be set independently from the host.  
Freehand tool: This tool can be used to draw parameters freely in the tap display.

SHADE SETTINGS  
EXTERNAL MIDI CONTROL  
26 – Tool Tip function  
You can use an external MIDI controller (e.g. a MIDI keyboard) to intuitively set the values  
for taps, velocity, panning and shades settings.  
Activate or deactivate the Tool Tip function. When activated, various tool-tips will be  
presented when you hover the mouse over various buttons and functions.  
Let’s take a look at a few examples based on Cubase LE4 as VST host. Just like any other  
plug-in, the Tap Factory can be used either as an insert effect on a track or as a send  
effect. To use Tap Factory as a send effect, insert it on a FX Channel track and then send  
signals to this track from your source tracks. We will use the FX Channel track method in  
this example.  
27 – Lock Option  
When trying out different presets it may be an advantage to keep your Input, Output and  
Mix settings. Therefore you can lock these parameters individually so that their current  
positions are kept when loading a new preset. Click on the padlock to lock/unlock.  
Create an FX Channel track and insert Tap Factory on this track.  
SHADE SETTINGS  
Create a MIDI track. Select you MIDI keyboard or controller as MIDI In for this track. A  
USB keyboard could e.g. be labeled USB Audio Device. Set this track’s MIDI out to  
“Tap Factory”.  
To be able to enter controller data into Tap Factory you should now:  
In Cubase, select the MIDI track  
In Tap Factory, set the Tap Mode to “Rhythm Mode”.  
The Shade settings basically define a 3-band parametric EQ that is applied to all delay  
taps.  
You can, however, use the Shade Factor parameter (see 3) to apply more or less of the  
Shade settings to the individual delay taps.  
Please notice that the sound resulting from your Shade Settings will vary depending on  
the setting of the Diffusion knob.

Entering delay taps  
FEEDBACK HANDLING  
With 24 taps of up to 9 seconds of delay and up to 100 % feedback on any tap, it is fairly  
easy to create settings that will result in an unwanted feedback-sum above 100 %.  
You can now use any key on the keyboard to enter delay taps in a pattern of your choice.  
Limitations are 9 seconds of delay for all taps summed and a maximum of 24 taps. After  
24 taps have been entered or 9 seconds have passed, Rhythm Tap mode is deactivated.  
When the feedback-sum is above 100 %, the indicated feedback percentage and the  
feedback factor turns red.  
It is easy to enter too many delay taps with too much feedback and thereby create a  
feedback overflow. If you need to reset all taps, just press the PANIC button.  
Example:  
OK  
OK  
Adding pan and shade information to delay taps  
While entering delay taps, you can also enter pan and shade values using the controllers  
on your MIDI keyboard. Use the Pitch wheel to set pan values and the Modulation wheel  
to set shade values. Simply turn the wheel as you tap in the delay taps.  
When entering Shade curves as described above, Low, Mid and High bands must be  
selected before you start entering taps and turning the modulation controller wheel. Go to  
the Shade Settings page and click on 1 for low-band, 2 for mid-band and 3 for high-band.  
NOT OK  
NOT OK  
You set the volume/velocity for the delay taps simply by hitting the keys harder or softer  
while tapping.  
Per default, the tap tempo is assigned to any key on a keyboard. However, it is possible to  
assign any MIDI controller to the tempo tapping function. MIDI keyboards often have  
dedicated CC buttons for such functions.  
As previously explained, you can always press the PANIC button to reset all delay taps.  
Connect the external MIDI device that you want to use for controlling the tempo to the  
MIDI In jack on your MIDI interface.  
In Tap Factory, right-click the red Tap Pad and select “Assign MIDI controller”.  
Then press the particular MIDI controller on your MIDI device that you would like to  
use for tapping the tempo. That’s it!  
To un-assign the currently assigned MIDI controller, right-click the Tap Pad and select  
“Unassign MIDI Controller”.

SOLO TAP LISTENING  
If you want to listen to a single delay tap, use the solo function.  
INTRODUCTION  
We recommend using the dedicated PowerCore file handling system that (apart from  
recall; store and compare facilities) allows for easy exchange of entire preset folders with  
other users, between Windows/Mac platforms and also between different host  
applications.  
On Windows: Press and hold they CTRL key and click on the relevant tap number (1 to 24)  
to solo it.  
On the Mac: Press and hold the SHIFT key and click on the relevant tap number to solo it.  
File  
Click the FILE button to open the File menu.  
Several taps can be selected for solo listening.  
MUTE  
If you want to mute a single tap, use the mute function.  
Load Preset: Select to load presets from the default preset location.  
Save Preset: Select to save the preset in My Presets folder.  
My Presets: Via “My Presets”, you can load you own presets.  
On Windows: Press and hold the ALT key and click on the relevant tap number (1 to 24) to  
mute it.  
On the Mac: Press and hold the COMMAND key and click on the relevant tap number to  
mute it.  
If you chose to store presets in other locations than the “My Preset” folder, these  
presets will not appear in the “My Preset” drop down menu. However, you can still  
navigate to, and load these presets via the Load Preset function.  
Preset name  
This is the name of the preset.  
Up/down  
The UP/DOWN arrows can be used to browse through all presets.  
You can mute several taps.  
A/B  
With the A/B compare function you can easily compare different parameter settings when  
working with the plug-in.

PRESET HANDLING  
When you start working with your preset, the A/B button is grayed out. This state  
indicates that the settings in both memory locations A and B are identical – so there is  
actually nothing to compare.  
As soon as you touch one of the parameters, the memory location “A” will be active. All  
parameter changes will be applied to memory location “A”. If you switch to memory  
location “B”, you go back to the starting point, and all further changes will now be  
applied to memory location “B”.  
Every time you press the A/B button, you will toggle between these two memory  
locations.  
NOTE: The A/B memory locations are temporary settings only! Saving a preset will save the currently  
selected memory location only. The setting of the other (hidden) memory location will not be saved!  
Reset  
Press “Reset” to clear memories A/B and return to the originally recalled preset.  
DEFAULT PRESET LOCATIONS  
The following locations will describe where you can find the presets, which are stored in  
a folder unique to each plug-in:  
Mac OS X preset paths:  
Factory presets:  
<Macintosh HD>/Library/Application Support/TC Electronic/<plug-in name>/Presets/  
User presets:  
/Users/<user name>/Library/Application Support/TC Electronic/<plug-in name>/Presets/  
Windows preset paths:  
Factory presets:  
C:\Program Files\TC Electronic\<plug-in name>\Presets  
User presets:  
C:\Documents and Settings\<your user name>\My Documents\TC Electronic\<plug-in  
name>\Presets  
To delete a preset file, simply move it to the “Trash” or “Recycle bin”.  
To create a new sub-folder that appears in the plug-in menu, simply create a new fold-  
er in the plug-in folder that resides in the PRESETS folder of the plug-ins default pre-  
set location.  
NOTE: A folder will not appear in the Preset File Menu unless it has at least one preset inside!
