Don't adjust trim pots on digital devices.

Assuming the unit is not defective, you might try
the following:

1) make sure the effect is engaged by pressing the
   effect button on the front panel

2) make sure you're connected to the mix and/or
   phase outputs & that the mix, input, & output
   knobs on front are turned up

3) make sure you're in delay mode & not sample

4) make sure that HOLD is not engaged

You might even want to open the unit & adjust the
trim-pot to see if this helps.

Instructions for this procedure & the users manual
are available on the LD website.

Good luck. I hope you didn't get a lemon. I bought
one off ebay several years ago & although it's beat
to hell, it still operates just fine.
