I need to go try Sync Bounce. As one of the people who pushed for 
threshold triggering for recording (it was sort of a gating factor for me 
on deciding to try switching though if I'd used more other loopers like 
the Line6 that don't have it maybe it wouldn't have been), I now feel I'm 
sort of getting what I deserve in that Sync Record also obeys it which 
Multiply on the EDP did not.
