How to use with a delay pedal:
- Find your song's BPM, enter it above, and read off the ms value for your target note division
- Quarter note syncs to the beat — most common starting point
- Dotted eighth (e.g. 187 ms at 120 BPM) is the classic U2 / The Edge slap-back feel
- Triplet eighth creates a shuffle/swing feel against a straight beat
- Click any value to copy it — then paste directly into a digital pedal or DAW
