It has a very tight real-time architecture and is guaranteed to respond to any MIDI message within 1.5ms. In fact, it actually responds to midi faster than it does to it's own buttons, because we need to debounce buttons to make sure we know what is pressed. In the case of the buttons, the echoplex response is guaranteed to be less than 3ms. Either way it is less than you will likely perceive, and less than the accuracy you will likely have in pressing the buttons! In designing the EDP we considered very fast real-time response to be absolutely critical to looping. So this was always a high priority in the design. The JamMan is known to be rather slow in midi response though. As I recall of that past discussion, that was the device people were talking about in regards to the MFC-10, not the EDP. People determined it was actually the JamMan that was slow, when they initially thought their midi controller was slow. Andy seemed to think both were slow, as he wrote here: http://www.loopers-delight.com/LDarchive/200102/msg00293.html >Andy Butler said that he was going >to use a TRS for certain functions to resolve the practical aspects of >this >problem. that would have been in regards to the JamMan. kim ______________________________________________________________________ Kim Flint | Looper's Delight kflint@loopers-delight.com | http://www.loopers-delight.com
