Try looking under the Project menu and see if you can set that option for the whole project instead of for an individual track.

I would try it myself, but my recent adoption of a password manager is in its infancy and I can't remote desktop into my computer downstairs until I get them on the same page with my credentials. And you know...like...stairs. Ugh. I can't even. :spacepalm:

I'll be down there tomorrow morning and I'll see if I can find that specific setting.

This ^^^^

File > Project settings > Project settings tab > Timebase for items/tempo

OR....

Instead, use a delay plug in that syncs with project tempo.

This is why I always use my effects in the daw instead of running them through an amp, it's just so much easier for me...

You should be able to find what you need in the project settings Armistice...

I learned something here about time vs beats, thanks!

As far as the tempo goes and delay, I use delay quite often. I usually play the part and adjust the click so its close then use the ole fashioned tap tempo to get it all the way there.

alt+enter (windows) brings up the project settings, the option to set the project default is there. You can also "save as project default settings" for all future projects.
But that will be all tracks in the project and won't distinguish between midi and recorded tracks.

That's the one. I always use Kaujerhaus (I can never remember how to spell it) "Classic Delay". I almost always set it to sync with the tempo. Just got to choose quarter notes, 8th notes, 16th notes, etc.....

Tap tempo on the pedals, not in Reaper.

Yeah, I use that one too for ITB delay, specifically if it has to be synced to the grid.
