How to setup Mosky 4 in 1 DTC to a dotted 8th note delay

Dotted 8th note delay settings using this Mosky 4-in-1 DTC. It was mostly played by ear but finally I got to understand what is this dotted 8th note delay is all about. Hope this helps guys.

Back to basics: Let's start with the quarter note and 4/4 time signature.

It means that you're counting 1, 2, 3, 4, for four times.

Now 8th note is half of it. So our counting now will be 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & for four times.

When you put a dot in front of a note let's say 8 plus a dot or typically called dotted 8th note is 8th note plus half of that 8th note. So it's like 8th + 16th.

To put it in simple explanation, lets go back to whole note, half note and quarter note. So, Whole Note, is 4 counts isn't it. You have to hold the note for 4 counts. Try and hum then count in your head up to four. Or if you got your guitar or keyboards in front of you hold a certain note whilst counting up to four. That's whole note.

Now, let's try Half Note, so half note is two counts isn't it. So hum or hold a note for two counts. So in order to get a three counts or hold a note for three seconds if I can use this term, you will need a dotted note or dotted half note. The illustration will be like this: Whole note is 4 counts or 4 seconds for simpler illustration, then half note is 2 counts or 2 seconds. But if you put a dotted half note you will get, half of 2 is 1 so it means that dotted half note is to hold a note for 3 counts or 3 seconds because half note is 2 plus half of 2 is 1 which is your dotted note = 3 counts.

It applies the same with quarter note. Quarter note is 1 count and half of it which is 8 is 1/2 count. So you will be holding the note for 1 and 1/2 or quarter note plus 8th note.

Sames goes with 8 note which is 1/2 and half of it is quarter which is 16th so it means that you will hold the note as 8th plus 16th. Hope that this make sense guys.

Is the Yamaha Stagepas 400BT the perfect electroacoustic amp?

I was looking for the perfect amp for my Fender DG60CE electroacoustic guitar and I think I found the answer. It's the Yamaha Stagepas 400BT. Also I will share here the perfect settings for your electroacoustic guitar.

It's the right size, right sound and volume as an amp. It's beautiful and as in a perfect match for your electroacoustic guitar. The Hall reverb is really sounding great plus the Hi-Z settings. But even without the reverb and Hi-Z because I tried on a different channel which was not Hi-Z and there's no reverb option, the electroacoustic guitar still sounds great.
