If you’re sending PC 71 and the 1440 goes directly into Overdub instead of Play, try sending PC 70.
Some MIDI units use the range 1-128 for PC messages–this is what the 1440 does. Some MIDI units use the range of 0 to 127. Maybe that is what’s going on here.

May 4, 2023 at 9:09 am in reply to: 1440 Firmware Update V0.57 – Improved MIDI Clock Sync Stability, MIDI Control #198746Flick (EHX Staff)Moderator1440 Firmware Version 0.60 is now available. Use the EHX1440 app to update your 1440. Here’s what is in the update:
Electro-Harmonix 1440 Version 0.60 Release Notes
May 3, 20231. Added three new MIDI PC messages:
a. PC 71 – Play function: always initiates the PLAY function unless the loop is empty. As long as audio is found in the currently selected loop bank, and no matter the current mode, sending PC71 will put the 1440 into play mode. PC71 does not start an overdub, record, or stop playback.b. PC 72 – Record/Dub function: always initiates the REC or OVERDUB function. 1440 will choose the correct function based on the current state. On an empty loop, PC 72 starts a recording. PC 72 starts an overdub on a playing loop, or immediately starts overdub/play on a stopped loop. During a new recording, PC 72 will close the loop and put the 1440 into overdub.
c. PC 128 – Direct Loop Erase. Immediately erases the loop of the currently selected loop bank, with no extra confirmation. The loop must be stopped for PC 128 to work. Caution! Once the loop is erased, it is gone forever, this function cannot be undone.
2. Bug fix: fixed a bug where MIDI PC messages 32 (RV.OC) and 33 (STOP) would change the function of the STOP/FX footswitch; now these two PC messages only perform their respective commands and leave the STOP footswitch setting as it was.
3. Bug fix: occasionally the LOOP footswitch would not queue playback in EXT CLK mode. This is reliably working now.
4. Bug fix: repeated PC/CC messages wouldn’t be processed while in EXT CLK mode with a MIDI Clock signal running to the 1440. The PC/CC messages are no longer ignored in this scenario.
5. Bug fix: a fade would be incorrectly applied to the start of a loop if the user had the overdub knob set to anything less than 100% and went directly into playback from recording an initial loop.
6. Bug fix: improved support for MIDI devices that use running status for PC and CC messages.
7. Bug fix: changing a loop with the rotary encoder or MIDI message during an initial loop recording would not properly switch the 1440 to the new loop.

May 3, 2023 at 11:23 am in reply to: 1440 Firmware Update V0.57 – Improved MIDI Clock Sync Stability, MIDI Control #198733Flick (EHX Staff)ModeratorYes, actually we’re going to release 0.60. As of this morning we finished our testing and will now send it out to be put up on the server. This is usually takes a couple of days.
Flick (EHX Staff)ModeratorThis does sound like a hardware problem. Please email poster@ehx.com so that we can figure out the best way to help you.
April 12, 2023 at 10:52 am in reply to: 1440 Firmware Update V0.57 – Improved MIDI Clock Sync Stability, MIDI Control #198464Flick (EHX Staff)ModeratorInteresting, so version 1.0 of the 1440 app works for you on Ventura but not 1.0.49?
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.
April 12, 2023 at 10:31 am in reply to: 1440 Firmware Update V0.57 – Improved MIDI Clock Sync Stability, MIDI Control #198461Flick (EHX Staff)ModeratorWe have tested the 1440 app on Ventura and it did work fine for us. 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?
April 6, 2023 at 9:07 am in reply to: 1440 Firmware Update V0.57 – Improved MIDI Clock Sync Stability, MIDI Control #198356Flick (EHX Staff)ModeratorBy the way, we should be releasing 1440 firmware version 0.59 by end of next week.
April 6, 2023 at 9:06 am in reply to: 1440 Firmware Update V0.57 – Improved MIDI Clock Sync Stability, MIDI Control #198355Flick (EHX Staff)ModeratorFor audible clicks and pops that you’re hearing, do they only occur when initiated these commands with MIDI messages, or do they also occur when you press the button or footswitch local to the 1440?
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?
