Make sure to power both pedals (SDRUM and DITTO X4) with enough current.<\/p>\n<p>2. Check out if all cables are connected the right way.<\/p>\n<p>3. If your DITTO X4 is older, please update the firmware to the latest version. In some forums on the internet you can find information that for some setups the DITTO X4 firmware 1.1.00 Build 49 works better. Maybe it makes sense to grade your firmware down to this version.<\/p>\n<p>4. Check out whether the Stop LED of the DITTO X4 blinks when you connect the pedals.<\/p>\n<p>5. Start with an empty loop \u2013 for the SDRUM does not change the speed of an already recorded loop \u2013 it sends the tempo to the X4 to set the length of the loop. When a loop is recorded this way, the SDRUM starts and stops the loop.<\/p>\n<p>6. If your DITTO X4 is in parallel mode, the Loop stops at the end of the loop. Sync mode is the better mode for synchronization.<\/p>\n<p>And if your cable after that still is not working as we promised, please don\u2019t hesitate to <a href=\"https:\/\/delaydude.de\/kontakt\/\">contact<\/a> us.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sorry, this entry is only available in Deutsch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[256,685,263,268,683],"tags":[100,106,837,1700,2334,1841,1042,248,97,1754,134,120,115,427,656,626,98],"class_list":["post-4003","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-7000-questions-to-the-dude","category-digitech","category-pedalboard","category-pedals","category-tc-electronic","tag-digitech","tag-ditto-x4","tag-error","tag-fehler","tag-firmware","tag-gear","tag-gitarre","tag-guitar","tag-looper","tag-mode","tag-parallel","tag-pedal","tag-pedalboard","tag-sdrum","tag-sync","tag-synchronisation","tag-tc-electronic"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p9GLlF-12z","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":5548,"url":"https:\/\/delaydude.de\/en\/the-pedal-guy-midi-sync\/","url_meta":{"origin":4003,"position":0},"title":"The DelayDude Midi Sync Cable: Now approved by The Pedal Guy!","author":"Delay Dude","date":"Wednesday March 24th, 2021","format":false,"excerpt":"The DelayDude Midi Sync cable has been created to synchronize the Digitech SDRUM with the DITTO X4.
