The JamMan will do this when under external MIDI clock control. You select
the number of beats from the front panel, tap to start recording and it
automatically stops when X-beats later. You're limited to multiples of 4
beats, but it does work fine.

type of music. Like you take two sticks, put 'em

together - dum, dum, dum, dum - fire, cosmic fire."
