Re: EH 16 Second Delay question

["wavecomputer360" <wavecomputer360@gmx.de>]

Hi Paolo,

thanks for this comprehensive insight. Now, how properly does the EH loop?
Does it loop continuously like the EDP, or does it loop like a Repeater or
the RC-20 (i. e. phrase-based)? Are there audible glitches or hiccups when
loops come to an end?

TIA,

Stephen.
