Yeah, Cool, if the 'plex did this I'd buy 2! :-)

I do something similar with the JamMan and the Roland Groovebox. I
midi-sync the JamMan to the Groovebox, set up some kind of pattern on the
'box, loop it into the JamMan, then unplug the midi cable from the JamMan
so it loops freely. I had a pattern going for 2 days once, was really cool
every time I checked in with it. It only went away when the power went out.
