Travis, I think it's more in the way that you worded your post, but it sounds from the above as if the Looperlative works on the same sort of "one loop with four tracks" architecture as the Repeater or (I think) the EH 2880. Obviously, that's not the case. Each of the 8 stereo loops in the LP-1 is separate and distinct. Of course, you could intentionally set up four of the loops so that they were synced and do the muting between the tracks like your example above. Likewise, you could do 8 completely separate tracks with different lengths/parts and switch between them at different times in a song. Sort of like the A & B loops of, say, the Boomerang, only you've got A, B, C, D, E, F, G, & H loops. And it goes without saying that you can flexibly combine both approaches. In the initial Sonicstate video from NAMM 2006 ( http://www.sonicstate.com/news/shownews.cfm?newsid=2648# ), I believe Steve Lawson even does A & B loop switching of the type you're talking about above on the EDP. Like I said, I think it was more the way the post was worded, but I wouldn't like anybody casually reading this to get the impression that the LP-1 is nothing more than an expanded Repeater or 2880. It's much different. --m. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.
