Multiply is a common way to do this in real-time, since it is very easy to manage while you are otherwise playing something else. This functio is very simple to do in the echoplex. It is also possible in the repeater, but not so easy to use in real time. In either case the two elements need to have an integer ratio between them. >ps: is there another hardware looper able to control separately many >tracks >as repeater does? DJRND has many more tracks than Repeater: http://www.loopers-delight.com/tools/DJRND3/DJRND3.html but I don't think it has an Insert or Multiply function. kim ______________________________________________________________________ Kim Flint | Looper's Delight kflint@loopers-delight.com | http://www.loopers-delight.com
