RE: Repeater Synch Workaround.

["Tim Goodwin" <deepbass6@earthlink.net>]

What is a "blank loop"?  Do mean record a silent track at a desired tempo?
This will create a loop with one recorded track, not a "blank loop".  Do 
you
then record over your initial reference track in "replace" mode or are you
recording to a new track?

The folks at Electrix mentioned that it's normal for the tempo readout to
flux by 1 or 2 tenths of a second from midi clock as the Repeater is in 
midi
sync mode.  It's not clear to me if it is a readout issue or if the readout
is accurately displaying Repeater's true tempo.  My assumption is the 
later.
And I also assume that it's probably imperceptible as long as it is always
with 1 or 2 tenths of a second from the clocked time.  What do you guys
think?

The only way I can figure out to defeat it is to first,
record a blank loop while in "USER" synch mode at a desired tempo, one that
matches your sequence. <...>

I wonder  if I'd get better results if my midi clock were not going
through a MIDI merge, so that I can get footcontrol and clock.
