I've had a few strange things happen since my Repeater and the FCB started talking to each other. While I haven't encountered the problem you've described, I have had the Repeater freeze up with regards to certain midi commands. Usually this happens when I've been using the track select/mute feature. I can perform the initial mute and then I can't control any thing else from that bank on the FCB 1010 and I can't seem to reset the Repeater manually either (I can't reset the muted track back to its original state). Not a frequent or big problem but an odd annoyance. As for Stuart's problem, I've seen this happen too. I will go to multiply a loop and the temp drops by about a third. This is also infrequent and for me (not a performer at this time) and not a major problem. I also wonder if I've got outstanding midi commands out there (like I changed a parameter or sent a command that didn't effect anything at the time but as soon as the same track is selected it becomes apparent). Unfortunately I think that there are still some loose bugs in the Repeater that were never accounted for and since we owners are the only researches left now, they are just being discovered. My general take is that the Repeater does not like to receive a lot of midi (or other) commands in quick succession. This is when I hit most of my problems.
