Hi there, I have been re visiting the "am I using the right hardware" issue again myself recently. the last time I looked at this, th e LP1 had just come out. I loved pretty much everything about it apart from the idea of how multiply was done..i couldnt seem to get anyone to tell me straight this simple question.. can I set up an fcb1010 button to begin to count multiple cycles of the currantly recorded material , whilst adding a new longer layer of sound and then upon a second press round this to the next cycle boundry ....IE a la EDP? thanks > Date: Mon, 12 Jul 2010 15:57:46 -0700 > From: looppool@cruzio.com > To: Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com > Subject: Rép : Multi-tracks loopers questions > > You mentioned that you don't like the interface of the Looperlative LP1 > but it makes me think that you may not understand how it works. > > With it you use any midi pedals that you want.
