I configured a UDK for tap tempo to an effects processor. The UDK blinked in time with the effect’s tempo, and tapped changes were correctly changing the effect’s tempo.

After using the console for a while, somehow the UDK stopped affecting the tempo of the effects processor. The light was still blinking, but tapped changes were not recognized. After unassigning and reassigning the UDK, it began to work again.

I will try to reproduce this.

Sorry for the flurry of bugs, feature requests, and questions.

Hi TJ

Thanks for the feedback, we are currently aware of an issue with the tap tempo becoming unlinked with the Softkey assign.

This should be fixed for the next next release of firmware.
