I think, as has been said above, the biggest problem with the way the “old” firmware handles tap is that after you fnish tapping in the tempo, the BB takes several seconds to get out of tap mode so you can start it. But, when I do a song without the BB, I don’t need them to be sybnc’d. Contact us directly if this is the I totally understand that for my looper, a Boomerang, to be sync up with my BB we need a clock signal. If the audio annoyances continue despite all the above solutions, we will likely need to replace your unit. Downloading the ‘SD Card Backup’ files from our downloads page ( ) and placing the contents on a different (and preferably new) empty SD card should fix the problem. If the above solutions do not work, then there may be a technical issue on your SD card (either corrupt files or physical corruption of the SD card itself). We had a different case where it was the power supply that was defective - try using one of your other pedal’s power supplies - but make sure it is 9V, center negative and at least 300mA. Try turning down the volume to 80%Īnother user who had this issue while plugging into an audio interface put a -10dB pad on the input jack and that got rid of all noise. Don’t plug it into a hi-z instrument input or a DI box. Assuming that you are connecting the BeatBuddy to a clean neutral channel, one possibility is that there is an impedance mismatch, and it could cause noise. I don’t have a channel to waste on it playing live so I have to live with the hiss. The only way to tame it is run its output separately on a channel and dial the trim way way back. Headphone jack does not fix this problem, either. You have to have the volume on practically nothing if you are running a guitar through it to an amp, and it’s hissy as all get out. If you (or anybody else here) have specific suggestions on ways it can be improved, please post these suggestions here: (You can also email us directly if you prefer: output on this thing is way too hot … it should be line level. I will forward this feedback on, and see how it can be improved. For those of us who use it without programming setlist and just want to vary the tempo on the fly, it does not work well.
But they’ve got to improve the tap tempo at least. I don’t know if any of these things can be fixed with firmware … obivously, not the output. It would also be nice to be able to stop it from sending MIDI tempo when it’s not actually playing, as loopers will be responding to its tempo even if you are not using it.
The output on this thing is way too hot … it should be line level. I also found the latching footswitch completely useless for tap tempo, and that was irritating because it said non-latching on the packaging. It’s like it’s waiting for four more taps before it realizes you’re done.
BEATBUDDY TAPTEMPO PLUS
Plus it has this annoying lag while it’s waiting for another tap before you can get it to start. On this thing you have to hit it multiple times before it will dial in and then just one tap can throw it off a couple of BPM. Has anyone else noticed how poorly the tap tempo works on this device? I have a lot of other pedals with tap tempo functions, and you can get it locked in with just two taps, three at most.
