I'm not exactly clear on what you want to do but this might help:

Check the EDP manual page 4-76 under SwitchQuant.  In discussing alternate
endings during the "lame duck" period -

"Insert
Copies the timing (but not the contents) of the first cycle of the current
loop into the next loop, and puts you into Insert mode when you get
there. Caution: erases the contents of the next loop."

I don't have my EDP with me right now, but with a single cycle loop in #1, 
some
sequence like: NEXTLOOP, INSERT, (wait for loop #2), INSERT will probably 
copy
the timing of loop #1 into loop #2.

I'm not sure you can make the EDP work EXACTLY like the Jamman regarding 
copying
loop timing.  It may require more than one button press to provide the same
function.  Some folks on the list own both EDPs and Jamdudes so they could
probably understand your analogy better than I.
