If memory is never an issue for you, than just set it to 5 loops (or whatever the most you ever use is). If you use MIDI you have all the flexibility available you are looking for. With MIDI you have both NextLoop and PreviousLoop commands, as well as the ability to jump directly to any loop with the LoopTrigger function. You even have fun stuff like SUSNextLoop. Or, if you don't use MIDI, you can still get a lot of flexibility using SwitchQuantize. After you press Next and it goes into the quantizing waiting period, you can continue to press Next to select which loop it is going to. Plus you can command it to start a function in the new loop, like Record, or LoopCopy, or whatever. This gives you a lot of flexibility to manage multiple loops without having to deal with a lot of buttons. kim ______________________________________________________________________ Kim Flint | Looper's Delight kflint@loopers-delight.com | http://www.loopers-delight.com
