Looper's Delight

Hi Mark, I've sorted it out (or at lleast the main issue) and it was a system setup thing - I'll explain it briefly for other Echo Pro users. The first thing that I did when I unpacked it was set it up in the MIDI/System menu - MIDI channel, clock, bypass mode etc. The problem that I had (of only hearing the loop delays when the loop was playing) seems to be with the "Mix Mode" parameter: I'd set it to "loop" because I'm using the EP from an aux send of my desk so I always want only wet signal through it. As soon as I changed this to "global", the looper's internal delay started to work with all material going through the looper. This is OK coz I can always keep the mix control set to wet. I do still have a question about the note values of the looper's delay though when set to MIDI clock sync, mine is syncing but it seems like its set to a triplet setting which can be quite nice but not what one would always want!. Any tips on setting note res in the looper coz the button to do it is used for the "play" control, maybe with a MIDI message? Thanks. Ian.
