This is the same noisegate thing that caused Andre his weekend of suffering. The parameter called "threshold" is only for starting a record when you actually start playing. The noisegate is different. It's on all the time and has nothing to do with the "threshold" setting. The noisegate is there to make Undo a much more usable function, so that each press of Undo takes away a real overdub rather than some unintentional noise. It also keeps the echoplex from squandering its memory. Matthias and I have discussed ways to make the noisegate smarter, as well as adding a parameter for it. Its tricky, since the user can cause himself troubles with the undo function without realizing it. kim ______________________________________________________________________ Kim Flint | Looper's Delight kflint@annihilist.com | http://www.annihilist.com/loop/loop.html http://www.annihilist.com/ | Loopers-Delight-request@annihilist.com
