For 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?
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!
Flick (EHX Staff)ModeratorThank you for alerting us to this issue. We are looking into it.
January 27, 2023 at 12:31 pm in reply to: 1440 Firmware Update V0.57 – Improved MIDI Clock Sync Stability, MIDI Control #197737Flick (EHX Staff)ModeratorWe’re actually working on them now. Stay tuned.
Flick (EHX Staff)ModeratorThe tonal differences between the DMM and Nano DMM have to do with input impedance. The older DMM has a lower input impedance equal to 100k. Depending on what is plugged into the unit, for example guitar straight into the pedal, lower input impedance might result in darker sounding dry and wet signals because the lower impedance might roll off some high end or treble.
The Nano DMM has a higher input impedance of 1M. Depending on what’s plugged in, for example guitar straight into the Nano DMM, the higher input impedance allows more high end to be retained.
Outside of the input circuit, LEVEL gain stage, and bypass circuit of the Nano DMM, the audio signal paths are identical between the two units.
Both the DMM and Nano DMM operate internally at 15VDC. The 24VDC DMM regulates the internal voltage down to 15VDC while the Nano DMM boosts the internal voltage to 15VDC. So the headroom is the same between the two.

January 23, 2023 at 11:42 am in reply to: Legacy app for 1440 Stereo Looper Pedal? Need it for Mac OS 10.14 (Mojave) #197504Flick (EHX Staff)ModeratorWe have version 1.0 of the 1440 app available at the following link:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1NcH2EDes8eBmpYNJ0fki6EmYrBZ_H0fW/view?usp=share_linkVersion 1.0 works with Mac OS 10.14 on Intel Macs.
At some point, we will make older versions of the 1440 app available on ehx.com.
Flick (EHX Staff)Moderator1. Loop audio is only on one of the stereo channels: The 1440 keeps the Left and Right channels separate from Input to Loop Recording to Output. So if you record a loop with only something plugged into the Left channel, only the left channel of the imported stereo wave file will have audio. Same is true if you record only plugged into the Right channel.
2. Extremely Quiet: Do you have the volume on your guitar at maximum? There is a wide range of amplitudes available depending on the pickups in your guitar. Some guitars have a very quiet average volume. You might need a booster pedal between your guitar and 1440 to make the recordings louder. Or you could import the wave files into software, like Audacity, and increase the amplitude of the waveform with software.
3. No Software Update: You might already have the latest firmware on your 1440? When you power it up, it will show a firmware version. What does it display you when you apply power? The latest version is 57.
Flick (EHX Staff)ModeratorPunkymep, the Disaster Areas SMARTClock Gen3 can receive MIDI Beat Clock and output a tap signal. Here’s a link: https://www.disasterareadesigns.com/shop/p/smart-clock-gen-3
Using a TS Cable, connect the SMARTClock’s Output A to Super Pulsar’s TAP/CLK IN jack. Make sure the Super Pulsar is set to External Switch mode, which it is by default.
