right, this *only* works to cut down to 1/2 a cycle
whatever the loop length.


Other than that there's Multi-Increase where
you can quickly define the number of cycles 
by repeatedly hitting Mult.

Echoloop doesn't have it at present, 
but Matt already worked on how to make the 
number of Cycles in a loop changeable as the loop is
running. (which would make Halving the loop easy)

so if loop is 7 cycles it cuts it to 3 1/2 ?

iirc it was David Torn who was asking for some form of Divide
when loop 4 was being finalized.
What we ended up with was as close as we could get.

(never heard from him after that tho')
