    probably a 3207, given they’re running on 9vdc/probably using something similar to the DMB line.

    Use a buffered splitter (like a Boss LS-2 or a Y cable + LPB2ube) before the pedal for your dry signal and you should be fine.

    Are you using the supplied adapter for the pedal?

    have you tried turning down your guitar? sounds like input clipping

    could you be a little more specific on which configurations you’ve tried?
    like
    esx (master) to 2880 (slave) isn’t working for you
    KP3 (master) to 2880 isn’t working?
    MC09 (master) to 2880 ?

    and you do have the “EXT Clock” and “quantize” buttons pressed, right?

    You’d want to slave the 2880 to the esx1 – basically make sure the esx1 is the master clock (clock = int) and hook the midi out of the esx to the midi in of the 2880. Then press the ext clock button on the 2880.

    Doing it so the 2880 is the master is a lot more of a headache due to how it behaves when you’re making a new loop.

    have you modded your monotron at all, or are you using 3.5mm to 1/4″ adapters to get signal to the DMM?

    Which version of the DMM do you have? An older one (trapezoid enclosure) or a newer one (die cast enclosure)?

    I know some people have had problems with traces on the monotron pcbs lifting. You good with a soldering iron?

    Just checked out the video.
    That looks like something’s up with what the MC505 is sending to the 2880; a lot of song position pointers, maybe, or maybe the MC505 doesn’t send continuous midi clock signals. Have you considered using something else as the master clock for both devices?

    Did you try changing the 2880’s midi channel? I think out of the box it’s midi channel 16/omni on

    And there’s a bit of speculation as to why the 2880 got the axe – maybe there wasn’t enough of a market for a $400 looper, maybe the CF cards in smaller sizes are becoming more difficult to source [or maybe they wanted to redo the architecture so it could record on larger cards], maybe they’re discontinuing everything in the sheetmetal enclosures in favor of redoing everything in the diecast xo boxes.

    The 2880 can sync to Reason fine?

    whoa you can actually get through to Roland customer service? jk, here’s some helpful starting points (I can’t check the video due to being at work right now but I’ll scope it at home.)

    Have you tried swapping out midi cables to see if there’s a short or something?

    Can you get the your korg unit to slave to the MC505? (this would point to a damaged midi out jack on the MC505)

    Can you disable any song position pointers in the MC505 and see if the problem persists?

    Have you tried changing channels to an unused one on the 2880? Looks like the MC505 transmits polyphonic aftertouch which could bog down the 2880.

    2 – depends on what’s sending the midi cc stuff and whether it can do non-quantized messages or not; I know the 2880 will react fine to those.

    3 – nothing (unless your play button is also a pause button, in which case it’ll pause ). same way as you’ll lose your grid when you hit the reverse button. it’d be rad if it would jump back to the start of the loop, but alas, the start/stop combo seems to be the only commands it does that with.

    are you using the supplied power adapter? what is before and after it in the signal chain?

    1- yes; although you’d want to send a CC command, not a program change command; no, it cannot be done via foot controller alone
    2- provided you’re using a DAW or hardware that can transmit the CC value, yes.
    3- no, but starting and stopping the clock + unmuting would get you the desired result. the off the grid bit is what would happen if you’re losing the live clock (and therefore playing faster or whatever live) or changing BPM (which seems to monkey unneccesarily with the synchronizations).

    try using it to push filtering effects like filters, phasers, flangers, or like, in the effects loop of a delay, etc.
