If you prime it with a pre-recorded loop of silence it will work, but not when you start from scratch on a reset loop. >- put overdub on what do you mean when you say that? Do you mean push the Overdub button or push the Record button? Remember, pushing the "overdub" button does not turn on overdub as you would expect. it only sets the overdub mode as either overdubbing or replacing. Pressing Record is how you turn on Overdub. If you have a reset loop though, pressing Record just starts Recording in it (as you would expect). There is no way to have Overdub on before you record the loop. conceptually in the Repeater overdub and record are the same thing so it doesn't even make sense. "Turning Overdub On" in a reset loop is the same as "Start Recording the Loop." >- press record >- press record again, record ends and overdub stays on The light on the Overdub button stays on, sure. But any sound you make will not be overdubbed. That LED means when you press Record *again* it will be overdubbing instead of replacing. It just tells you what the setting of your Overdub paramenter is, not whether you actually have overdub on or not. You still have to press Record again to get the overdubbing to start, thus introducing a gap in the sound. kim ______________________________________________________________________ Kim Flint | Looper's Delight kflint@loopers-delight.com | http://www.loopers-delight.com
