Hi Bill, Question about the Repeater: sometimes when i engage the tracks to record in stereo i have troubles desingaging them which i usually do by pushing one track while depressing the other one,has this happened to you? You also mentioned once that you turn off the overdub button to avoid latency but i donīt really notice any difference.
