Huh, I'm not sure what your rig is like, but why not use one stereo pair of the repeater for your "basic beat" then put the second stereo pair into record with a feedback of your choice. This can change all the time depending on how fast you want the second part to evolve. For bonus, I use a Lexicon MPX1's delay to grab a set chunk (anywhere from a 1/16 to an 1/8) of my loop and repeat it at will. This can be really cool. Kind of Andre LaFosse like, if I hit the sample (a/b) button at a kind of random point. I'm not sure how long it will stay synched, but it seems to go a long time. (btw, I'm not using clock from the Repeater to do this, as it doesn't work) If this doesn't work, I think the Echoplex in delay mode may be your only choice. I've had luck with synching an EDP to it. Be prepared to pay $1300 if you want it in stereo. Other delays seem to hate the Repeater's clock, including ones made by Electrix.
