If you guys here Play with your delay untight and are happy with 500ms that is Fine. I have a spread from 80bpm to 150bpm in my Bands Song. No time for knob fiddling to "tune by ear" the Delay time to Tempo time at the beginninof each Song.
And if the Delay is Not synced, i hate it. Give me reverb then...

If is sit only at home there is no Problem using just a knob for time and tune though...

Being in "bands" and playing "songs" is sooooooooooo old-fashioned.

If you can hear the repeats you aren't gazing hard enough.

I still think someone needs to do a shoegaze cover of this:

I was thinkin' more like "'Gazin' In The Grass", but HUGHGRAZE works too.

You know, slow it down, add lots of volume, some droney synth, guitars clashing against one another, a bunch of warbly vibrato.

It can definitely be done.

So I finally tried tuning my Drone Commander with the Polytune and it worked amazingly well. I was kind of surprised
I don't think it would be overly useful for me unless I was in some kind of band setting though
I think I'll continue just droning by ear but it's nice to know I can tune it if needed
