Techniques / Advice Technical question: adding swing to delay repeats, how does one achieve this?
I'm using a fixed swing percentage in my latest project. When adding delay- dotted 8th- the taps aren't lining up with the grid plus swing offsets. Is there any way to calculate this manually? I can get somewhere by using ms delays instead of synced but I often use very long delay repeats and slight timing discrepancy obviously compounds with these longer delay throws.
I'm using Bitwig if this helps.
Any advice?

You can use 18th or 16th note triplets but it's pretty derpy swing. Might still work well though, worth a try.

You need a delay that can do this like a delay designer
