yep, that's right.
However, it seems that tempo select isn't saved to preset 0

hmm,
just wait while I look up how to save a preset ;-)

Well, I wouldn't be surprised if there was a bug.
That behaviour is what happens if you use quantize and
use Subst of Replace by direct Midi. ( if you release the
press while the ooo shows ).
...but you're using the Insert to do replace.

However, following what you say here I didn't reproduce the behaviour.

Possibly having Sync=In would have something to do with this,
but I'm only guessing here. If you were sending midi-clock to the edp
it would mess with the 8th Quant behaviour.

If you're keen to get to the bottom of this then
a list of any non-default settings would help me to exactly duplicate
what you did to get the result.
...and also an exact list of all actions after boot-up

....Because I'm clueless about this so far
