>>>So, are you saying that on the LP1, I can record, let say a loop on track 1 that is 30 seconds long, with no time signature, and then record a loop on track 2 that is 40 seconds long and is 16 measure long, set that track 2 as the reference, and track 1 will repeat within that 16 measures? In this case, it would have to play the track 1 loop once and start again for 10 seconds before starting again.<<< nope, not saying that at all... by resetting the master sync loop, I mean that the layers you add AFTER that will sync to the new master track. The tracks before will stay as they were, the same length as eachother (I've yet to do any experimenting to see if they'll drift from one another, but there's no reason to suggest that they should given that they are now fixed at the same length in the same box using the same processor etc. etc. I'll try and draw what I'm saying - loop one (ambient goo) - Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx loop 2 (ambient goo synced to loop 1 length doubled) ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo together - XxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxXxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo loop three comes along, rhythmic loop, different length to others, unsynced - zzzEzzzEzzzEzzzEzzzE loops one and two carry on doing their thing, as though in a completely separate unit... loop three can now be set as the loop for any other additional loops to be synced to, so if loop 3 was a bassline, you can add a chordal part to it, or a melody or whatever, in sync, without messing with what loops 1 and 2 are doing. and on the production model (the ones that'll be at NAMM), you'll have three separate stereo outs to route them to - master out and two stereo auxes, so you could post-process the ambient mush one way, the chords on loop four differently, and leave the bass part on loop 3 untouched. So no, as of now, it doesn't do EDP-style multiply, but the musical possibilities with that little lot are so freakin huge!!!! I'll see how much of this I'm able to demo at NAMM. :o) Steve www.stevelawson.net - site www.stevelawson.net/store/ - shop http://steve.anthropiccollective.org - blog
