RE: LOOPING VIDEO posted by Rick Walker

Very cool, the three separate pieces really fit... I like it a lot.. 

I did something similar once. i first recorded a looping jam with the EDP, then i did two new takes as complements to the first track, each in one take. Then i mixed just the two complementary track and it turned out rather cool.. very airy 

LP2 seems like a great machine...
