All this is quite funny. i talk about stepping on a headrush the wrong way, in the dark by accident, and you guys get all complicated. hehe I know it's not original or special, it was funny. geez OK, i'll get complicated. i should have said the shortest manually created loop, with no EPD tricks. midi stuff or numbers and shit. OK what the longest loop anyone has created? heheh cam In delay mode and sus with some advanced midi controler (peavey PC1600x or digitech pmc 10) you can enter back to back note on / note off that give the smallest edp loop midi can give the you can increase the loop time by inserting null midi bytes (00) between note on note off all hex: 90 26 7f , 90 26 00 note on note off the smallest possible 90 26 7f 00 90 26 00 one 00 byte spacer 90 26 7f 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 90 26 00 a loonger loop with more spacers I call that resonator mode Claude > At 05:40 PM 5/9/2003, Jesse Ray Lucas wrote: > >Well, as we learned from Kim and/or Matthias about the EDP, it shouldn't be > >able to make a loop shorter than 1.5ms, because that's the length of time it > >takes the software loop to cycle.
