Wait a minute... isn't this subtly accomplished on the EDP by the NextLoop with LoopCopy ON? I semi-regularly record one phrase into my first loop... NextLoop recording (or multiply) begins when you hit the NextLoop button... I then play over the initial phrase, multing out until I've added what I want, I either close the loop with Multiply, Record, or NextLoop to continue the process. It's then easy to use either Replace or SUS functions to either subtly or radically change that loop (either Loop1 or Loop2) into any harmonic structure you want. I admit it's sorta sneaky, and not quite like having a click track and immediately recording the new part, but it's a subtle way to sneak into ABC... forms on the EDP. I will sometimes copy the initial first phrase into 2-6 loops of differing lengths, then overdub or multiply and deliberately add various length melodic lines with contrasting harmonic content, so I can immediately LoopTrig any loop at will to create morphing structures which can then be played over. Since I don't use my midi pedal that much, I'm lazy and usually just do 2 loops, and jump between the two using the EDP footswitches. I'm sure you're aware of this stuff Andy, but your comment above prompted me to add this detail to the discussion. All the best! Miko Biffle "Running scared from all the usual distractions!"
