I did not mean to change its time. since usually roughly the short is the rhythm and the long the harmony, its interesting to improve the rhythm after the harmony is done and obviously quicker and more precise if done on the original track to change the time of this base loop would be rather crazy to my ears :-) - unless its a fraction of the previous time... rather Divide than UnroundMultiply I love UnroundMulti to create shocking new rhythms within the same sound trip and trying to imagine now, it could be even better to continue with the old harmony loop, chopped in a more delicate way... > > >> so I am even thinking of building the Evoloop without loop saving >> function! > > I second that decision.
