Yeahhhhh...sigh of relief. >The question remains: are there identifiable factors that might have >caused >it?? I don't think it's anything dramatic. sounds to me like you accidentally switched the Loop/Delay parameter to "delay". In that mode, the overdub button acts like a hold button on a delay. When it is green, the delay line is open, and audio at the input goes into the delay and gets added to your loop. when you press overdub (or hold now), audio is not input anymore, and the feedback is set to 100%. It would be easy to confuse this with the Overdub function doing a switcheroo if you didn't realize you were in delay mode..... >Now I'll always wonder, is green REALLY green? Is red REALLY red?
