Re: I just wanna insert!



the trick is to let the foot on the insert switch till you're done then 
lift 
it where you want the insert to stop (good EDP exercise btw)

this is possible if your B part is longer than the detection of a long 
press (1-2 secs ??)
if you wannt to enter glitch land and insert very small snippets Insert:SUS
If you have a midi footped that can sent toggling messages you could 
recreate the function (direct midi) you wanted at the beginning
