        You need to think of the Repeater as a 4 track recorder.

        You can fade individual loops by the front panel sliders or MIDI.

        You cannot reverse individual tracks.  All tracks reverse, again 
think

        recorder.

         You can slip (move forward of backwards), pitch shift, individual 
tracks.
