Re: delay chips and design

["Lance Chance" <lrc8918@louisiana.edu>]

don't get me wrong, i love my repeater and what it exclusively offers in 
the
way of sync functions and "on-the-fly" waveform editing.  my EDP just seems
to have this seamless quality to it, and i'm convinced that there has to be
some method of identifying which machine will be strong at which function
depending on what method is used to create the over all effect (delay).
is the EDP a "zero-crossing adjusted" loop machine, as opposed to the
repeater which is, i assume, a "cross-fade style" machine like the method
mentioned by Dennis in his post?
i sort of assumed that the cross fade was responsible for the
inconsistencies in the sine on the repeater.   is there any way to adjust
the crossfade so that "dip" is not as apparent, i didn't see anything in 
the
manual about it, and i did look a little.  understand that i use a
consistent sine here as an ideal goal, but actually, my input is more
dynamic and multitembral than that.
