Re: looper's missing delay presets -- why?



that's correct, the jamman allows you to do this with an external midi
sequencer.

this can be done in "loop" mode using the 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, or beats
32 to limit the length OR in "echo" mode using prg-chg messages to "tap"
in the exact delay time.

the edp must be able to do this and MUCH more - can anybody tell me
about this? i ask because i'll be borrowing a friend's edp sometime
soon.
