In the old Echoplex manual, under InsertMode, it says it IS affected by quantize. In fact, that manual is missing a description of how it works unquantized. The description there is really only explaining how it works with quantize on. The new EDP+ manual has a better explanation. >What >is going on here?

A sustain action Replace when quantize is off. With Quantize on it replaces the quantize period exactly. >What is the effect of doing this >(Insertmode=rPL and Quantise=8th)? When you press Replace down, it waits for the next 8th note to start the replace. When you release Replace waits for the next 8th note to end it. If you just tap it you will get a single 8th note. (the 8th notes don't have to be 8th notes in fact. It is a subdivision of the loop cycle set by the 8ths/cycle parameter. Quantize=8th follows this subdivision. The default setting of 8ths/cycle is 8, for 8th notes. But you can set it to anything and have any rhythmic subdivision you want.) >Where in the doc (either LoopIV >or LoopIII, if at all) is this described? Under InsertMode in the old manual. The new EDP+ manual has a whole section for replace. Forget the manual, go try it! It is obvious when you use it. kim ______________________________________________________________________ Kim Flint | Looper's Delight kflint@loopers-delight.com | http://www.loopers-delight.com
