Do you mean that you can achieve the same by adding another parallel loop clip that you make longer? That's correct, you can even revers all looping clips on a scene just as handy as if they were layers of the same (multiplied) loop. But I still stick with Mobius in Live rather than recording clips. But I guess I would think different if doing pre composed material like for example Kid Beyond (die-hard Live user). A personal take: I just love the open feeling of playing free improvisation with live looping techniques and I think that this future-wide-open attitude rubs off emotionally on the audience in a positive way. Can't explain how it works, but I really have a strong feeling of that happening. I get the same feeling when listening to recordings of the sixties' "spiritual free jazz" artists (Sanders, Coltrane, Dolphy and more). It's "something collective" that "opens up" and it doesn't happen if arrangements are too rigid or clips can't be mangled on-the-fly. The Gospel of Looping?
