Re: sample based looping vs. delay looping

Thanks you guys.  I was indeed using a pure sine (kinda just as a test for
my filter factory) and certainly the unit does seem to produce really nice
loops from more dynamic material.   Now that I think about it, I did a
little voice drone experimentation with it when I first got it and didn't
notice a problem.   I was using a way low end sine last night and maybe
frequency plays a part in producing the undesirable effects.   I'm glad to
hear that it wasn't just me and I'll try some other drony input. Maybe try 
a
slip work-around on my low end stuff?

thanx,
lance
