When you use quantization, there will usually be a delay between when
you press a button and when the function actually happens.  Mobius 
won't start playing the extended loop immediately from the beginning
if you end the multiply before the end of the cycle, it will continue
until the end of the cycle.  I'm fairly certain the EDP works the same
way.
Here is an example:

  - quantizization is Cycle
  - record a loop of 4 seconds
  - near second 2 press Multiply
  - you will not enter multiply mode until you reach the end
    of the loop at second 4, anything you overdub during this period is
lost
  - at second 4 the loop is extended one cycle, it is now 8 seconds
long,
    you may begin overdubbing
  - at second 6 press Multiply 
  - the multiply will continue until second 8 because the ending has
    been quantized to the end of the second cycle

If you want to begin overdubbing immediately after you press Multiply,
you should turn Quantize off.
