Re: edp loop copy question

["Sandy Rowles" <sandy@pajiba.com>]

SOUNDS LIKE THE RIGHT IDEA, BUT I AM USING AN FCB1010 WHICH DOESN'T ALLOW 2 MIDI NOTE COMMANDS ON ONE SWITCH, SO I DON'T THINK I COULD DO THAT LIVE. AT LEAST NOT WITH THE CONTROLLER I AM USING. THANKS FOR THE ADVICE THOUGH.

Might be possible with a string of midi commands to do fast button
pushing for you.

From loop2
  Goto Loop1 (but not long enough to hear it)
then copy to loop3 right away.

You wouldn't be able to cue it up in advance, you'd have to just press
the button in exactly the right place
(with SWITCHQUANT=OFF, or CNF depending on how you wanted to make the
copy. )

might work.
