How to Turn Off the Tap Tempo on Peavey Amps

Peavey modeling amps like the hybrid tube and digital Vypyr series have a tap tempo feature that controls the speed of the delay effects built into the digital effects stack. Because tap tempo is directly tied to the delay effect built into the amplifier, turning off the delay effectively turns off the tap tempo feature. You can do this by using the amplifier's edit mode.
