The echoplex already uses basically this technique to make smooth loops. No need for an upgrade! It also detects whether you are actually playing anything at the point where you close the loop, so it knows whether to overdub this quick x-fade into the beginning of the loop or not. kim At 2:58 PM -0800 3/4/01, Jon Wagner wrote: >Hey y'all- > I had this idea the other night about how my dream looper would work. >It >would sit there recording material and filling up its buffer with the last >few seconds of sound it heard.
