>Hey dude, I don't own an edp(yet) but I've been studying the 50 someodd
page manuel like it was the holy Bible and it can record your second loop
with the same amount of time as your first loop and have the second loop be
"just the second loop". The edp manuel states that there is a difference
between a loop ( being a stand alone "cycle") and an overdub (cycle(s)
layered over a primary "cycle". This is, of course, according to the 
manual;
I have no real experience to back this up with. You can down load the 
manuel
for the edp from the Gibson site. Its a tedius read but it gets better the
more you read it.
