Hi Doug,

That one was a great post! It sure helped me to understand Live better.
Are you using the latest version 2.1? I was thinking the some of tje
"limitations" you listed might have been fixed in the new update? 

I intend to use Live as a midi clock slave to the EDP and I guess your
this, your note, doesn't apply then?

Let's say I keep a bunch of Live tracks set up to record clips of
different lengths. Then I guess the EDP loop can serve as "matronome" to
record liv into Live?

Best wishes
