Re: Repeaters Clock out

[jim palmer <jimp@pobox.com>]

i haven't had much trouble synching repeater to edp.
(haven't really tried it the other way since repeater os1.1)

the only thing i have come across is when i do odd time stuff.
the repeater seems to only think in quarter notes, so i have to set the 
edps epc (eighths per cycle) to
double (ex. for one measure in 5/8, i have to set epc to 10) and then
the repeater shows 5/4 with the tempo doubled.   i have wound up with the 
tempo faster than
the repeater could handle this way.

there may be a better way around this...

it's a lot of fun to grab an edp loop with the repeater and then shift it 
around 
against the edp by hitting play on the repeater to reset it's start point.
pitch shifting the repeater can be good, too if the loops are sparse 
enough.
interlocking madness to follow...
