That would pretty much match mine.

Two loops with loop copy pretty much requires both a copy & switch and a 
switch. I was always a bit frustrated on the EDP that you could only copy 
into another loop if it was empty. I understand why, but I really wanted 
an easy way to work around that limitation (without having to enlist a 
complicated controller since otherwise the EDP controller worked nicely).
