Hmmm.... I couldn't find "The Hidden UnroundedMultiplyReverse Function" in the EDP manual: http://www.gibsonechoplex.com/EchoplexPlusManual12.pdf but in the LoopIVGuide: http://www.aurisis.com/products/loopIV/LoopIVGuide.pdf The paragraph reads: The Hidden UnroundedMultiplyReverse Function In LoopIII the limitation with Multiply cross functions that forced us to do them Unrounded resulted in one function that some users liked. If Mutliply was going and overdubs were being made over the top, ending with a single button press of Reverse immediately changed the length of the loop to that point and instantly put the resulting UnroundedMultiply into reverse. This was an interesting use, but after we made the improvements that allowed us to do Multiply cross functions Rounded it was only possible by doing two button presses. (With two button presses, you do it like this: end Multiply with Reverse, then press Record during the Rounding period to set the new loop length and immediately have it in reverse.) So for the user who lost this favorite function, we found a way to give it back to him. It is a little bit obscure in operation, so bear with us. Set MoreLoops to some number greater than 1. Set SwitchQuantize on to Confirm. (any quantizing value works, but it is easiest with Confirm.) Record your basic loop in Loop 1. Press NextLoop. You will go into the "Confirming" state, where it waits for another function press before it goes into the next loop. Press Multiply down and hold it down. This will immediately put you into the next loop, copying the audio from the first loop. Overdub as much as you want over multiples of your first loop. When you are ready, release Multiply. The loop in Loop 2 will immediately stop copying, reset the loop length to that point, and go into Reverse! So there is the old UnroundedMultiplyReverse function, now properly called NextUnroundedSUSMultiplyReverse. When InsertMode is equal to SUS, this function is disabled in favor of the usual UnroundedMultiply SUS function. So after all, it's worth reading the LoopIV guide alongside the EDP manual. I always thought the LoopIV guide was fully integrated into the most recent EDP manual... Bernhard > -----Original Message----- > From: a k butler [mailto:akbutler@tiscali.co.uk] > Sent: Freitag, 25.
