That's the default "most desireable option" for a looper... at least
many live loopers think it is.

I'd have to check, but I think that's how all hardware loopers work.

Musically, I guess it depends whether you think in terms of rigid barlines
that structure the music...common in sample based looping.

Another reason this happens is that midi clock is just a stream of
ticks without any info about bar lines.
