Aux-Out; Opened / Closed (Latching) Switch; Tap-Tempo Out - GFI System SPECULAR TEMPUS User Manual

4.3 Aux-Out

This interface provides a switch contact that allows Specular Tempus to control another piece of
gear. The switch contact can be configured as :

1. Opened / Closed (latching) switch.

An opened / closed switch can be used to control external gears that has the facility for exter-
nal switch control. For example, many amps that have more than one channel are usually
equipped with an external control input jack for remote channel switching.
Example application of Aux-Out switch : switching amp's channel together with preset change
A caveat : there is only a single switch contact in Aux-Out, thus it's usefulness for switching amps
channel may actually be limited. A more useful application of Aux-Out is described next.

2. Tap-Tempo Out.

This configuration allows you to send tap-tempo signals to other gear that accepts external tap-
tempo control, a very useful tempo-synchronization tool! The tap-tempo signal that is routed to the
Aux-Out is independent of the sub-division setting so the slave gear is free to use its own subdivi-
sion setting.
Tips : Reverb algorithms are not affected by tap-tempo, however if you do tap-tempo while using a
reverb algorithm the tap-tempo signal will still be still routed to the Aux-Out, so you can change the
tempo of another gear even you are not using a delay algorithm in Tempus itself.
Aux-Out functions can be configured using the editor software.
