Unrounded multiply == Shorten loop, this can't be done on all loopers, but 
it can be done on the repeater

8th Quantized Substitute == overdub rhythmically (really replace 
rhythmically, but lets say overdub because it produces a similar if not 
the exact effect).  I've done this on the repeater, DL4, Headrush and 
Boomerang, I don't own a JamMan, but I've seen it done there too.

I haven't gotten my LoopIV upgrade yet, so I don't remember what 
SUS-Insert does, but if you remind me I can describe how to do it for you.

Note: I'm not against the EDP, heck I own one.  But I've done a lot of 
experimenting with other boxes to do what I need to do.  The EDP can 
certainly do all those things much more directly (especially with a 
super-duper MIDI command center under your feet) and probably better than 
they could be done with another looping unit, but that doesn't mean that 
they don't share capabilities.

I don't really use most of the features of the EDP, and I've never gigged 
with mine.  I've found working with the other, simpler, boxes is usually 
more than enough for what I do.  I keep promising myself to spend some 
serious time woodshedding with the EDP so that I can feel comfortable with 
it, but I haven't really had a chance.
