(understandable, it is kind of confusing.) When overdub is on or feedback changes are being done or some other change in the loop is happening, drifts in the incoming clock are ignored specifically so that we don't lose the change in the loop. Then the edp synchronizes when overdub is turned off again. The real potential problem there is if you are synchronizing to external clock and you leave overdub on for a long time, you may fall out of sync. So you need to be careful about that. But you don't lose the overdubs.... > > I think there's some kind of a workaround for this, > > try turning down feedback a bit and see if things improve. > > Or try putting a very slight tempo increase into the sequence. > >uh, sorry, that should read >"Or try putting a very slight tempo decrease into the sequence." >...because you want the sync to arrive at the EDP later than the loop end, >rather than earlier. that shouldn't be necessary. kim ______________________________________________________________________ Kim Flint | Looper's Delight kflint@loopers-delight.com | http://www.loopers-delight.com
