Thanks Teddy for the answers! That's perfect to switch the uses of the sub and main out! Can you get tv tuner lube from any electronics store? For the third one I don't tap the tempo with the pedal at all I just set the patch tempo at 52. Then when I finish my first loop the tempo automatically bumps up to 104. My first loop is two measures (8 quarter notes) and I have the time signature for the patch set to 4/4. I have been going through the support docs but only one time through so far. I'm sure it will stick much better the next go round:) Todd Matthews On Fri, Nov 21, 2008 at 9:40 AM, Teddy Kumpel <teddybut@mac.com> wrote: > answers... > > 1) use the sub out as your "main" out and vice versa.
