I won't say anything about the technical options, since I guess there
might be some way to fix it with CV gate pulse or whatever, but I can
suggest trying "musical sync by ear". The EDP is especially good for
that. Simply kick the Record pedal on a downbeat, play something and
kick Record again at the correct timing. The longer loop you catch
this way, the longer it will stay "synced".
