Sounds like you are sold on going the computer
path, but there are other rack mount loopers other than the EDP that support
MIDI sync.
If you do go the computer path then I highly
recommend dedicating a computer solely to that purpose. This will allow
you to strip the computer of all annoying add-on packages that tend to make
computers unstable. The less that is installed on the computer the more
reliable it will be. In fact, if you get a stable configuration. I
would avoid automatic upgrade managers. I also wouldn't use it on the
network. Installing anti-virus software can be one of the worst things
that you do to a computer.
I'd actually like to see Linux used more heavily in
audio systems. There is so much unnecessary garbage in
Windows.
