Very interesting! I've heard others say similar things. Does someone know if Reactor has an implementation for external midi control of all parameters? I'm thinking that it might be cool to use live. A laptop instead of a rectifier, that's something ;-) --> Question of latency: I have been playing with a POD 1 and I think it sucks because of the latency. I am also finding the latency in the Repeater hard to coup with when not putting it in a loop to keep the instruments direct signal. Has someone here measured the latency of the POD 1 and the Repeater? I'm just curious, since I'm not a "tech guy" myself. So if someone can confirm that, let's say, "the Repeater has a 30 milliseconds (or whatever) latency to the direct input signal", then I would get at least something to hold on to. Experience of latency is a very personal thing and I prefer small stages when playing with a band mostly for the timing. Or a good backline engineer, if that is available ;-) Speaking about playing live with a lap top (or a mini PC) you can of course sidestep the latency problem by putting it in a loop. But it would really be cool not having to do that because of the sound mangling potentials of Reactor 4.
