Good point.  Just tried, and it still occurs. I press record, record a
loop, press record again....the loop plays back for one cycle and stops.
But the switches and timing LEDs continue to blink at the beginning of
silent loop.  Hmmmm.....

>> ..from what you say, you imply  that the "bad" unit reacts to both
presses of record, and is looping 
silence of the correct length...but I only guess that because you say
the feedback LED is the main symptom.

Yes, it behaves as I describe above, but the only difference is that the
feedback LED does not blink.

>> If this isn't the case, then the answer is to set Controlsource= not.

Already set to Not on both units.

>> I'd try powering up while holding the param button, for a factory
reset. (but just check all the current params first for match with the
good unit)

I'll wait until you synthesize my new info, using just one unit.

Thanks,

Kris

for stereo they have to be exactly the same
