Sure. I'll try to include all my steps, since I don't where the problem is. QUANT=loop SYNC=in 8THS/CYCLE=8 AUTORECORD=on SWITCHQUANT=loop MORELOOPS=2 RECORDMODE=toggle SAMPLERSTYLE=run 1 I turn on the Alesis SR 16 drum machine, the EDP shows it is receiving MIDI clock from the drum machine Using the Gibson foot controller I: 2 press Record 3 play something, I'll refer to it as loop1 4 end recording by again pressing Record 5 press NextLoop, the EDP indicates it will switch to loop2 at the end of the current loop and begin recording 6 at the end of loop1, I play something else I'll refer to as loop2 7 I end recording loop2 by pressing NextLoop 8 the EDP is now playing loop1 and everything is still in sync with the drum machine 9 I press NextLoop and at the end of loop1, the EDP switches to loop2. No problem. 10 I press NextLoop and at the end of loop2, loop2 starts over again. Loop2 plays for a beat or so and then switches to loop1 11 The EDP is now out of sync with the drum machine. The following five variations produce the same problem: If AUTOREC=off then in step 5 after pressing NextLoop I also press Record the same problem happens. If in step 7, I end recording loop2 by pressing Record, then the proccess skips directly to step 10 and the same problem happens. If the EDP is synced to a metronome via BeatSync, the same problem happens If I do not use the foot controller and enter everything via the front panel of the EDP, the same problem happens. If SWITCHQUANT=Cycle (or anything besides off) then the same problem happens. The following two variations do NOT produce the problem: If in step 4 I end recording loop1 by pressing NextLoop and thereby immediately record loop2 which I also end by pressing NextLoop, then the problem will not happen. I can switch back and forth between the two loops and the EDP will stay in sync with the drum machine. If I start with SWITCHQUANT=off then during step 8 I reach over to the front panel and set SWITCHQUANT=loop. The problem will not happen. Any help/suggestions would be great. Thanks again for taking a look at my problem.
