I ran RE71. For comparaison, last year the OEM pads were starting to fade after 3 laps.
After the track sessions the brake were almost always quiet, but the noise came back after a couple of day DD.
I think I'll try making a little chamfer in the pads and put more grease, and if that doesn't work try removing the OEM shims.

My Ferodos did that. Basically, every time swapping them on (these are daily/ax pads for me), no amount of grease would be sufficient. They'd be quiet for bedding in, then pretty much what you describe..a few days later, noise.
Once it gets to be both a)unbearable and b)a time when I can get to doing something about it, regreasing the back of the pads shut it back up.
Snug up the fasteners, too. That vibration frequency is pretty good at backing off bolts.
