Re: sample based looping vs. delay looping

  <smile>  I don't know, -I'm pretty darn good at hearing artifacts.   lol!
 -I do alot of it for a living.  and while I do know that the Repeater does
produce them going in and out of recording and switching from forward to
reverse and vice versa, with the method I used, I really don't hear them.
I've also done it with guitar and synth, so the pitches are pretty
constant.  <smile>  -which method did you use to record your sound?  
  Anyway, thanks for the note.  regarding the sender's original point, of
the differences between sampling vs delay based loopers, do you have any
insights?  

Smiles,

CQ
