"horn length 2.22m"


6.47 millseconds

Or just do the math yourself, speed of sound is 343 m/s at 20°C. (source : wikipedia)
so 2.22 / 343 = 0.0064723032 seconds ~= 6.47 milliseconds

If you don't like proper units I'll let you do the math with the one of your choice Tongue

Decent LMS, will allow you to delay by cm.

I have always delayed everything above the Sccops, not the Scoops.

When I used to use my reflex 15" on top of my scoops, my delay ended up being about 6.5ms

Which just so happens to be about the horn length

It will entirely depend on which cab sits on top of your scoops of course

as said above, as a rule of thumb i take most full scoops as 2.1m if I don't know  , my reflex kicks were 6.2ms and my hds were 4.8ms as I remember , i do mine by ear with the sweep freq test method , but once done and you select bypass makes you realize without it was act missing quite a lot
