Re: RE: future loopers--A discrete delete funtion?

[Matthias Grob <matthias@grob.org>]

Yes, I need that delete function too. Mostly for the case that I do a 
multiply and then realize it became 9 cycles long or so. For me that 
would be fine, I learned to deal with it and like it somehow, but 
will the percussionist?
I observe that the "conscious" musicians can play terrible rhythm 
measures I can never follow, but only if they know whats needed. 
Otherwhise they listen half the piece through to figure out what my 
structure is before they play - instead of just floating with me... 
LOL!

Anyway: my special version of the delete function would be a rounded 
one, or even quantized: "chop off this cycle"
