Those are "chained" functions- several things triggered by one button
press.  Only one function can be defined per midi number, but that
function can have up to 8 commands in it.    

What I'm talking about is the kind of functionality on the EDP where
the same button takes on multiple tasks depending on context.

Can you pull up a different function on a Looperlative button by doing
a "long press"?  Or have defined button x do something different if you
are currently (e.g.) in overdub?  That's what I'm talking about.  That
kind of context dependent functionality cuts down on the pedal dancing.
     






“I saw too many people die, and a lot of people didn’t see any of that. 
They had a press conference and left. I’m looking up, fighting this 
incredible battle, and they’re doing press conferences and lying to the 
people. They’re telling them 40,000 troops are in New Orleans. It was all 
bull.”  -Ray Nagin, Mayor of New Orleans
