Not really. In Emagic/Apple Logic the part you are recording does not 
have to have a defined loop length and you can set it to loopmode 
immediately.

But for any hardware solution it would be new indeed. Our (partial) 
model was the Roland CSQ-100/600 sequencers (but those miss the 
quantizing).
Especially the CSQ600 has this synced recording start, which knows about 
the ryhtmic structure, but is not bound to a dedicated loop length. 
Means: It knows where the first beat of pattern is, and starts recording 
there, but you can stop the recording (=make the loop) at any time.
