...which reaches its most efficient implementation with a looper which also
offers a redo function, multiple loops and multiple tracks (in other words:
Mobius, don't know about the Looperlative). And this offers some very
creative arrangement options when used to un/redo not only overdubs but 
also
(more or less) radical editing steps. Think e.g. looping some chord
progression, the susunroundedmultiplying one short chord out of it, and 
then
by un- and redoing splicing this short quickly repeating percussive chord
into the progression...

btw Jeff, why isn't there a SusUndo and SusRedo?
