What is this effect for?

Repeats notes with Digital, Tape, Ping-pong, or Analog character.

Try listening

Start with low Feedback so the first repeat is clear. Try manual Time, then tempo sync with quarter, eighth, and dotted eighth subdivisions. Adjust Tone and Blend; listen to Ping-pong through stereo outputs.

Things to watch

Long repeats are not the same as string sustain. Active delay can mask drive problems; inspect distortion with delay turned off first.

Open the definition on a control label to understand its function. The same label can mean different things in different effects. Compare the active and bypassed sound at similar levels.
