Flick (EHX Staff)Moderator
This does sound like a hardware problem. Please email poster@ehx.com so that we can figure out the best way to help you.

We found a couple bugs and UI issues with the firmware update during the last round of testing. So we’re currently fixing all the issues. That will probably set us back about a week.

Do you have the latest version of he app installed? Did you try running the software update just in case?
Flick (EHX Staff)ModeratorIt’s hard to say if the problem is a bad Silencer or if the gain is so high in your setup that the Return signal is coupling back to the input signal at the INPUT jack, creating positive feedback.
One test you can try doing is to only put the HM-2 in the Silencer’s Send/Return loop. Does this gating work well enough to both mute the HM-2 and quiet your amp’s preamp?
If not, then most likely the Silencer is defective and should be repaired. Contact info@ehx.com if a repair needs to be set up.
Flick (EHX Staff)ModeratorExcellent! Glad it’s working now.
Flick (EHX Staff)ModeratorIs the Silencer the only pedal in your amp’s FX loop?
On the Silencer, where do you have the REDUCTION and RELEASE knobs set?

Flick (EHX Staff)ModeratorBasically the way that the Send/Return loop works on the Attack Decay is that whatever signal is present at its Return jack will then go through the internal volume envelopes.
The output of the volume envelopes will then go to the wet side of the Blend knob. The Blend knob should sweep between the dry signal present at the Input jack and the wet output of the volume envelopes.
We recommend you first do a factory reset on the Attack Decay because the hidden Return Blend control could have been adjusted:
1. Power down the Attack Decay.
2. Press and hold the Bypass footswitch.
3. Continue to hold down the Bypass footswitch while reapplying power to the Attack Decay.
4. Continue to hold down the Bypass footswitch until one or more of the PRESET button LEDs begins flashing.
5. Release the Bypass footswitch, factory restore is now completed.Now try the effect, in mono mode, with Blend set to maximum. You also might want to start with an Attack setting above minimum to obtain a more varied effect sound, just for now.
Flick (EHX Staff)ModeratorCan you tell us what other pedals you have in your signal chain? For example, you mention there’s an HM-2 in the chain but it’s not in your guitar to amp chain. Where is the HM-2 in your signal chain? What other pedals are in the signal chain?
Flick (EHX Staff)ModeratorYes, you can overdub on Track 1. It sounds like the DUB setting for Track 1 is set to 0, which means when you overdub on Track 1, it fully erases any previously recorded audio while it records new audio. To allow overdubbing on Track 1, do the following:
1. Ensure TRACK 1 is selected. Press the TRACK 1 button if it is not already lit.
2. If the LOOP/DUB LED is not lit, press the PAGE button until it is lit.
3. Press the VALUE knob once so that the dot to the right of the two right digits is lit. The two right digits represent the DUB or Overdub value.
4. Turn the VALUE knob to change the DUB value for Track 1. Set it to 10 so that you can overdub onto Track 1 without the previously recorded audio being erased or gradually lowered in volume.
5. Try overdubbing on Track 1 now. It should work like the other tracks.Flick (EHX Staff)ModeratorWe have not tested the Howitzer at either 9VDC or 12VDC. Most likely it won’t work at 9VDC but 12VDC should work. Make sure the output plug is center-positive and the 12VDC power supply is capable of supplying at least 1.5A.
Flick (EHX Staff)ModeratorWe don’t your particular setup to try: iPad -> MOTU M4 -> MIDI Cable -> 1440.
Do you have any other devices that take MIDI clock which can try this same set up?
Flick (EHX Staff)ModeratorFirst thing is check the Fade-out parameter setting. Maybe this is set very high? Fade-out is a secondary mode setting, so to check and change the Fade-out setting, do the following:
1. Press and hold the PAGE button for about 1 second. Release PAGE when it blinks rapidly. Now you are in Secondary Page mode.
2. Press and release the VALUE knob until the two left digits display FD. Should be three presses of VALUE.
3. The right two digits indicate the current Fade-out time. If it shows OF, then Fade-out is disabled. If it shows a number, then fade-out is enabled the number represents the fade-out time in seconds. If a number is displayed, turn the VALUE knob counterclockwise to OF.
4. Exit secondary mode by pressing the PAGE button.
Try again to stop a loop.
By the way, if you’re recording a new loop, you will need to press the PLAY/STOP footswitch twice to actually stop playback. The first press closes the loop and sets loop length. The second press stops loop playback.
Also, make sure the QUANTIZE button is not lit at this time. If QUANTIZE is lit, the 95000 might continue recording to finish out a bar.

That’s going to be a little tricky for us to figure out so it won’t be part of the firmware update we’re currently working on. It has been added to our feature request list though.
Thanks!
