i've never used an EDP though, so this is a bit of a mystery to me, i'm afraid

i'd like to put it into a script though, as i have a button on my control surface available and i'd like to hit that button to truncate the loop by one 8ths per cycle value (whatever it happens to be at the time)

No need for scripting there. Truncating a loop on-the-fly is the same
basic action combination as with the EDP:   Multiply finished by
Record. With this combo you can cut down a loop into a very short
slice if you like. Fun to tap dance on this in combination with Undo
and Redo.
