Re: asynchronus hardware loopers
Or if you sold your EDPs you could fund a
Looperlative. Not sure if it does everything you need
though. I sold my Looperlative to fund a laptop that
runs Mobius which is based (somewhat) on the
functionality of the EDP... but like you have 16 (or 8
stereo) of them. Tracks can run synced or not.
Sweet.
