If you keep the Repeater in Overdub mode and set Feedback to 0%, you will hear the original loop material during overdubbing, but it will be completely replaced by new material on the next pass. The Repeater also can be set to Replace, where current material is muted during the overdub. The Repeater will not, however, automatically quantize your overdubs, as the EDP will when using Substitute with Quantize=8th. I admit that, after hearing Andre's recent material, I began to wonder if I hadn't made the wrong decision in purchasing a Repeater instead of an EDP. After further thought, though, I realized that I haven't spent sufficient time with the Repeater to fully explore how I can use its unique capabilities to produce a sound that's MINE, rather than a cheap second-rate copy of Andre's (or DT's, or anyone else's). So off I go in search of my sound. If I make it back, maybe I'll even post the strange goodies I found on my journey for public consumption. =) Later, Scott ===== Scott Martin coirbidh_99@yahoo.com You can't make me think like you, mundane -Incubus __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
