yes, the EDP does this. you can set any number of 8th notes to equal the 
basic cycle length, so you can have any time signature. Then the actual 
loop length gets determined by the tempo. You can select the tempo in BPM 
using the new Tempo Select feature. Or if sync is coming in by midi clock, 
brothersync, or beatsync that can set the tempo for you. The loop length 
appears on the display as soon as there is a sync signal. Then you just 
tap 
record at any time to start recording. when you tap it again the echoplex 
rounds off to the right length. It's really simple to use. If you have 
quantize on, it will wait until the downbeat to start the record, so 
everything is tightly aligned. If quantize is off you can start any time 
and still end up with the correct loop length in sync to the clock.

hope this helps,
