no, it does not sync by itself.

some of you may remember i was the first person to bring this list the 
bad news that it doesn't, after a phone call with an extremely rude 
person at Line 6.

however, the Echo Pro looper is controllable through MIDI notes. that's 
what my post was about. i used a laptop with a MIDI sequencer to send 
the appropriate MIDI note messages required to syncronise the looper on 
the unit.

this is easier than how i get rhythmic control out of the PCM-80: by an 
obtuse arrangement of modulation scaling and tempo mathematics.

you may ask "but silly Suit & Tie Guy, why would you bother jumping 
through such hoops?" and i would answer "because now i have 2 
hi-fidelity loopers with balanced connections in the space which used 
to house my Repeater."
