Repeater memory (& Suggestions for more demos)

The repeater manual says that Repeater has 8Mb of
internal memory, that´s about 46 sec. on Stereo/ 23
sec. of double stereo or 11.5 sec. per mono track on
16-bit 44khz sample rate but the manual also says:
"INTERNAL MEMORY is limited to 8MB which translates to
about 1.5 minutes of record time", stereo?, per
track?, if it´s in stereo that means that internal
memory compress the audio in some way or uses a
different sample rate ´cause the manual also says:
"Loops on the CFC are in .WAV file format", that means
that internally are not?, if you use one CFC of 256 Mb
you´ll get about 25.6 minutes of stereo sampling/ 12.8
min. of double stereo or 6.4 minutes per mono track,
then on the Electrix web page says: "Repeater comes
bundled with a 16 MB Compact Flash card to complement
the 8 MB internal memory. 24 MB means 4.5 "track"
minutes", if they´re using 16bit-44khz sample rate
then the 4.5 minutes of each mono track should eat
22.5Mb, or am I wrong?.
I think they mean 4.5 minutes of total mono time (1.5
total mono time on the internal memory), or: 2.25
minutes of stereo or 57 sec. per track, rigth?.
Is it possible when you´re looping live to have
Repeater record the loops on the CFC too?, ´cause I
think 46 sec. of stereo sampling or 11.5 sec. per mono
track is too short for a song, even 1.5 minutes of
mono time, the EDP lets you have about 3.3 minutes,
right?.
Also in the manual: "The range of the tempo control is
limited by the speed of the storage device. Most CFC
will have a tempo range of -200% through +50%. Using
internal memory insures a range of -200% through
+100%", I think it would be cool to hear some demos
with loops stored on the CFC and see how fast they
perform the time stretching and pitch shifting, also
make the Repeater to follow an external midi clock
source to hear how the time stretching follows that
midi clock, also do some demos alternating different
loops like on the Jam Man or EDP
