Re: 16 second delay reissue a reality.

That sounds awesome.  I plan on getting a maneco elite because I am now far
more interested in that then what I am now refering to "static" looping,
liek the DL-4. RC-20 ETC.  which is great for songs(esp the RC-20 due to
storage abilities).

Thanks for the great answer.  that is now stored in my supply of looping
knowledge.  Very Cool.
