Yes. It's possible exactly the way you put it. You can also put repeater sync in "Beat Detect" mode and start playing your pads. Then the repeater will fall into the right tempo when you start it. But you have to actually try it yourself to see if you like the feel.

Too slow response time. But Marks idea was cool IMO; "triggering tracks on/of by midi msg generated by hitting drum pads". I've actually done this once on a recording- a drummer played midi pads along with the studio recorder and his pads were triggering loops in a sampler. I set the number voices so every new sampled loop was choking the one already playing. One thing you can try, with the midi pads/repeater set-up, is to have only non-percussive loops in the repeater. Just four drones, or whatever, one on each track. Then you play the rhythm on you pads, rapidly zapping between the tracks. I wonder what that would sound like ;-D ????
