First, THANKS for responding!! I have used both the Gibson foot controller and the front panel with the same results. For the purpose of this email, I'm using the footswitch. The drum machine is an Alesis SR16. I've been messing with the EDP all day and I've found that: 1)If I start with SWITCHQUANT=off, I can press Record, record loop1 and end with pressing Record. I let the loop play for as long as I want then, at the right moment, press NextLoop and record loop2 ending with Next Loop. Now the fun part. I can reach over to the front panel and turn SWITCHQUANT=loop(or any of the other options) and switch back and forth to my heart's content. No problems. 2)If I start with SWITCHQUANT=loop, but I end recording loop1 by pressing NextLoop and immediately record loop2 and end that by pressing NextLoop, also no problems. In other words if I start with SWITCHQUANT=loop I have to record both loops in one pass without any, well, looping. Anything else (ending recording loop1 by pressing Record for example), and before switching back to loop1, loop2 will start over and run for an eighth note or two. 3)Everything is the same if I sync the EDP to a metronome via BeatSync, so that would appear to rule out the MIDI clock. I've reset the parameters and started over, also the Feedback setting is all the way up. Thank you again for taking the time to help with this! I'm really nervous about sending the EDP back if it's a hardware problem. Nobody seems to have any in stock.
