I have been reading and searching how to get a eight dotted delay. And of course have to understand the steps in the process. I stumbled hereby to an old topic from 2019 about this subject. But I only see 2 answers which are totally abracadabra for me:
1. "If you are setting it to tempo, a dotted eighth = 3/16"
2. "There is the temptation to want to play in time with the dElay you hear, which obviously defeats the effect. I'd suggest settinG to dotte-8ths, (as paulTs suggests) but "tap tempo" your pulse
and play wiTh your pulse. The dotted delays should then magically appeaR."
That's it...
Could any explain clearly how to get such an eight dotted delay as a right setting for U2's Where the streets have no name?
