Re: RC50 Latency issues



settings might be also interesting for the group...

...
Besides the much cited "hiccup", all other so called "latency issues" 
proved to be wrong settings imo. At least, in my setup these things didn't 
appear or disappeared with the proper time settings. Please see below for 
proper time settings.

Now, for me the RC-50 is my first "real" loooper. Buf if you are 
experienced with EDP/Repeater, there might be minor/major features you 
might be missing.
Some annoying things are for me i.e.: changing tempo sounds awful (forget 
MIDI slave!) and it doesn't accept real short loops (i.e. half second).
(I haven't used it with MIDI sync, no experience there).
Some things are a bit annoying at the beginning but you get used to it 
(pedal handling, green/yellow lights).

On the other hand, there are some great features for the money like:
- three stereo loops + stereo aux send
- loop length
- nice extra commands with extra foot switches
- useful all-in-one-box

And for a lot of things there are actually work-arounds you woulnd't think 
possible first (feedback control, multiply..).

So, Scott, my suggestion: print out the recommended time settings (see 
below), go to a music shop and try it out if it works for you.
Then let us/me know what you think doesn't work.
;-)

RECOMMENDED BASIC TIME SETTINGS RC-50
=====================================
SINGLE MODE.
# LOOP SYNC: OFF
# GUIDE: OFF
Turn off the GUIDE VOLUME knob all the way down to OFF. (Even if it's 
down: check it again, because switching patches could give it a different 
default value).
# PHRASE1-3: TEMP SYNC: OFF
Perform this for each PHRASE.

MULTI MODE
* GUIDE VOLUME: OFF
* LOOP SYNC: OFF
* For each PHRASE(1-3): TEMPO SYNC: ON (!!!) 
(Make sure you don't accidentally hit the TEMPO PEDAL.)
