My only issue is that I cant get it to configure with my M-Audio expression pedal I reset it and it made zero difference. Any Tensor users have ideas?

Honestly I don't know, I suppose you've already read the manual to see how to configurate it properly? Iirc you have to hold one of the footswitches while plugging it.

Yep, did all that but no luck so far!

Maybe the Red Panda peeps have a secret jedi reset trick or something? Sound like you tried everything else, it's worth the shot no?

Good idea! I shot them an email about it.

Got a reply from Sylvie at Red Panda - she suggested updating firmware as mine is a low serial #. It worked!

Now I have to figure out what I want to assign the exp pedal to do...

Tensor owners, a question - if you press on the left, record button when a loop is already playing, do you get a click, a bit noisy sound when you do it? Also, if you change between presets while playing, does it do a clicky sound as well? It is updated to the latest firmware.

No and no

I guess you already tried a reset?

Yep, tried a reset. It happens if I have it on REC or overdub mode in both latching and momentary when I stop recording a loop. A very weird thing happens as well if I record a REALLY short loop, a milisecond one, I get a sort of tremolo effect, even if I have it full wet and I play my guitar, the guitar sound cuts in in a tremolo effect with some scratchy artifacts.

IIRC the footswitch clicking thing is a common issue with earlier (S/N < 067000) units, but the dry signal cutting in like that sounds odd and I would definitely shoot the Red Panda peeps an email.. also maybe try updating the firmware if you haven't done so already.
The current hardware revision+latest firmware should not produce any of those issues.

Check your serial number and refer to the documentation for firmware updates.

I think I recall reading somewhere that the most recent firmware update does not work
with a certain set of early serial numbers.

it works, you just don't get the extra looping time. Mine falls into that category. I need to upgrade mine. If anyone has a newer one and doesn't care about the looper, wanna trade and I'll send some cash your way to save me the trouble of having to buy a new one and sell my old one?
