I don't know if it helps, its all conjecture at the moment.... When the machine is first turned on, we do a calibration of the digital audio parts. We also do this whenever you reset the loop, and at regular intervals if you leave it sitting there in reset. The point of this is to take care of offsets that can develop in the digital audio convertor parts as they warm up. So let's say you turn the echoplex on when it's cold and immediately record a loop and leave it going for a long time. Then after it's running for a while, this fade thing starts to happen. It could be that an offset has developed as the digital audio parts warmed up, gotten bad enough to cause this problem, and we haven't had any chance to do our calibration. (we can't do it while the loop is going, since it causes a dropout/pop.) When you turn it off and back on again, the digital audio part gets calibrated again and is already warmed up, and everything is fine. You also might try pressing reset, and see if that does it since that also runs the calibration. we'll look into it and see if we come up with anything else. It's weird, because most units are fine and never do this. It could be that the digital audio part in yours has an unusual offset problem, or maybe it's something else altogether... hard to diagnose by email! 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
