C0 Relations between loops

C0-1 prochrony (from pro- towards)
-   the plan for looping, established before the performance begins, including the selection of space, equipment, theme, instrument(prochrony,prochronic,prochronous,prochronal,prochronicity,prochronically,prochronouslyprochronally)
C0-2 neochrony (from neo- new)
-   the layering (and constrasting) of new notes/phrases/loops over old -  the performative and compositional aspect(neochrony,neochronic,neochronous,neochronal,neochronicity,neochronically,neochronouslyneochronally)
C0-3 panchrony (from pan- everywhere)
-   referencing logical development in time over all loops, development of sound collage through iteration(panchrony,panchronic,panchronous,panchronal,panchronicity,panchronically,panchronouslypanchronally)
C0-4 apochrony (from apo- out from)
-   referencing the dominance or influence of previous loops on new material - this includes the dangerous tendency of looping to the pentatonic/diatonic/drone(apochrony,apochronic,apochronous,apochronal,apochronicity,apochronically,apochronouslyapochronally)
C0-5 platychrony (from platy- flat)
-   The phase within a performance, identified by common features, comparable to movement in art performance(platychrony,platychronic,platychronous,platychronal,platychronicity,platychronically,platychronouslyplatychronally)

C1 Sections of loops

C1-1 subchrony (from sub- beneath)
-   repeating pattern within a loop, including ostinati (subchrony,subchronic,subchronous,subchronal,subchronicity,subchronically,subchronouslysubchronally)
C1-2 catachrony (from cata- within)
-   the positioning of material within a loop (or loops? including the process of harmonic progression within the metachronic?)(catachrony,catachronic,catachronous,catachronal,catachronicity,catachronically,catachronouslycatachronally)

C2 Loop feedback

C2-1 parachrony (from para- beside, around)
-   feedback mechanism between the loops (including decay, distortion, flicking the tape, tape wear)(parachrony,parachronic,parachronous,parachronal,parachronicity,parachronically,parachronouslyparachronally)
C2-2 mimeochrony (from mimeo- mimicry)
-   identical looping - where the repetition of each loop is perfect or as near perfect as the technology permits(mimeochrony,mimeochronic,mimeochronous,mimeochronal,mimeochronicity,mimeochronically,mimeochronouslymimeochronally)
C2-3 porochrony (from poro- passage)
-   lossy or disrupted looping - where there is a marked difference between the subsequent iterations of a loop(porochrony,porochronic,porochronous,porochronal,porochronicity,porochronically,porochronouslyporochronally)

C3 Loop age and phase

C3-1 protochrony (from proto- first)
-   first loop in a performance(protochrony,protochronic,protochronous,protochronal,protochronicity,protochronically,protochronouslyprotochronally)
C3-2 paleochrony (from paleo- ancient)
-   earliest loops(paleochrony,paleochronic,paleochronous,paleochronal,paleochronicity,paleochronically,paleochronouslypaleochronally)
C3-3 presbychrony (from presby- ancient)
-   all earlier loops(presbychrony,presbychronic,presbychronous,presbychronal,presbychronicity,presbychronically,presbychronouslypresbychronally)
C3-4 taxochrony (from taxo- arranging)
-   ordering loop - a loops that asserts the form and intention of a performance (not necessarily a protochronic loop, as there may be several delineating phases)(taxochrony,taxochronic,taxochronous,taxochronal,taxochronicity,taxochronically,taxochronouslytaxochronally)
C3-5 urchrony (from ur- tail)
-   final loop designed to permit graceful fading out(urchrony,urchronic,urchronous,urchronal,urchronicity,urchronically,urchronouslyurchronally)
C3-6 nothochrony (from notho- erroneous)
-   referencing a track that disrupts, denoting either a mistake, or the kind of looping that is introduced to make a change in the nature of a performance(nothochrony,nothochronic,nothochronous,nothochronal,nothochronicity,nothochronically,nothochronouslynothochronally)
