JM4 Looper snap crackle & pop

support@line6.com — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 05:15:11 GMT

I have a JM4 Looper pedal (firmware 2.09) and I seem to be experiencing an increasing amount of snap, crackle and pop during recording. More specifically, it seems that the recording is fine, but when I go to save it to a WAV file, I get all kinds of pops. At first it was just a few and I thought maybe it was the switch on my guitar or something. But now I'm getting these pops every 5-10 seconds. The recording is fairly simple; a built-in drum track with about 90 seconds of rhythm guitar. Then I save it (as a Jam file) and attempt to record a solo on top of it. Then I save that to a WAV file.

I have also tried just recording a solo straight on top of a built-in song -- no crackle in that case.

You can hear the samples here:

This does not appear to be an issue from the guitar or cable as the pops are not present when I load the JAM file; only if I load the WAV file or copy the WAV file to my computer. I have tried turning the JM4 off and on etc to no avail.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Maybe there's a better way to do this that The JM4 is cool, but I'm getting frustrated with this.

Thanks
