Heh. I, on the other hand, have has grave difficulties getting a simple
2-chord looped vamp synched by the bassist and drummer, and they were
both good players. It certainly isn't impossible to get multiple loopers
etc playing in sync, but the nature of machines makes it difficult. The
solution is to have a loop device that can actually "listen" and follow
"groove" and not just machine time.
