In the old echoplex software there were some software bugs that caused unwanted feedback reductions in some rare circumstances, typically in stereo setups. The feedback on the slave unit would get stuck slightly below maximum, resulting loop volume dropping slowly over long periods of time. Not very many people experienced that, but it was irritating for those who did. Those problems were fixed last year with the LoopIII v5.0 upgrade. I wouldn't describe feedback volume reductions as "degrade" though. I never heard of anybody having a problem with the loop audio degrading over time. It's difficult to imagine how that could happen, since the basic looping situation is handled by just moving an address pointer back to the loop's startpoint in memory. The data doesn't change... I never heard of loop audio degrading in the jamman either, so I'm curious why someone would think one was degrading "more" than another? Could they be leaving overdub functions turned on, or something like that? kim ________________________________________________________ Kim Flint 408-752-9284 Mpact System Engineering kflint@chromatic.com Chromatic Research http://www.chromatic.com
