Strymon TimeLine — MIDI Editor & CC Reference

Control the Strymon TimeLine from your browser — full MIDI CC reference for 8 parameters, interactive editor, and AI-generated presets. Free, no install.

Nitelite gives the TimeLine a full browser-based control surface: turn every knob, flip every switch, describe the tone you want to the AI Tone Terminal, and save the results — all sent to the pedal live over MIDI (default channel 1). Works free in Chrome, Edge, Opera, or Brave — no install required.

Footswitches

  • Abypass on CC 80
  • Bbypass on CC 82
  • TAPbypass on CC 81

Special MIDI Functions

  • Expression — CC 100
  • Persist (Trails) — CC 22. Turns on delay persist "trails" — delay repeats spill over when the effect is bypassed. When ON, bypass mode is automatically set to analog bypass.
  • Infinite Repeats — CC 97. Engages infinite repeats — delay repeats sustain indefinitely. Equivalent to holding the B footswitch.
  • Expression Pedal Enable — CC 60. Enables or disables the expression pedal input for the current preset.
  • MIDI Clock — CC 63. When ON, TimeLine responds to external MIDI clock from the MIDI input. Only presets with this set to ON will respond to MIDI clock. Saved independently per preset.
  • Tap Division — CC 21. Selects the subdivision for delay repeats when tapping a tempo. 0=Quarter notes (default), 1=Dotted Eighth, 2=Eighth, 3=Triplets, 4=Sixteenth notes.
  • Boost — CC 23. +/- 3dB of boost/cut. Useful for level matching in your effects chain or boosting a solo with delay. 0 = maximum cut, 30 = unity, 60 = maximum boost.
  • MIDI Patch Bank — CC 0. Selects the MIDI patch bank. 0 = presets 00A–63B (programs 0–127), 1 = presets 64A–99B (programs 0–71). Send before a Program Change to access the second bank.
  • Looper Level — CC 98. Sets the volume level of the looper playback output.
  • Remote Tap — CC 93. Sends a remote tap tempo pulse. Equivalent to pressing the TAP footswitch. Send any value to trigger.
  • Phase Reset — CC 125. Resets the delay phase. Send any value to trigger.
  • Looper: Record — CC 87. Starts looper recording. Send any value to trigger. Equivalent to pressing the A footswitch while looper is active.
  • Looper: Play — CC 86. Starts looper playback. Send any value to trigger. Equivalent to pressing the B footswitch while looper is active.
  • Looper: Stop — CC 85. Stops looper playback. Send any value to trigger. Equivalent to pressing the TAP footswitch while looper is active.
  • Looper: Reverse (Toggle) — CC 94. Toggles the looper into or out of reverse playback mode. Send any value to trigger.
  • Looper: Full/Half Speed (Toggle) — CC 95. Toggles the looper between full speed and half speed playback. Send any value to trigger.
  • Looper: Pre/Post (Toggle) — CC 96. Toggles the looper between pre-delay and post-delay position. Send any value to trigger.
  • Looper: Undo — CC 89. Undoes the last looper overdub, returning to the initial recorded loop. Send any value to trigger.
  • Looper: Redo — CC 90. Redoes the last undone looper overdub. Send any value to trigger.

Hardware Presets

The TimeLine has 200 hardware preset slots. Nitelite can save your current settings to a slot and recall slots via MIDI program change.
