There's no one answer to that. Let your ears be your guide. Experiment with other settings too...you may hit on something cool (ie, a 3/8 inverted, etc). Never hurts to experiment...that's how you get happy accidents!

Nah - that's how you get jazz. Remember that a mistake made once is a mistake; make it more than once and it's called jazz

The amount on the main dial is how deep the pump effect cuts.

What you want for a 4 on the floor beat is more to do with the Rate selection. Namely you will be looking for a 1/4 setting and playing with the Offset so the effect is hitting at the right time.

This same company also does Metafilter which gives you a whole host of more options, but is more complex to get your head around and more expensive. Its great tool however.

Thanks Simon !! :) how do you decide about offset values ?

Generally you turn up the big dial until Pumper sounds obvious, then you just change the Offset until it sounds like it's pumping in the right place.

Give it a try, it's pretty easy to tell.

If you want something with more control there are plugins like MetaFilter and others around.

They offer a lot more flexibility, however the trade off is they can be harder to use and are generally more expensive... but thats what sales are for!!

There's probably a good chance you can find a preset close to what you want, then you can tweak it from there.
