RE: EDP multitap feature

["Alan Kroeger" <nospam@developsolutions.com>]

Thanks Kim I guess I will have to startup my copy of MIDI Ox and try some 
of
that out I might be able to do this with Fuity Loops as it records MIDI 
too.
Naturally this isn't that high a priority for me but, useful to make it
known to those who keep requesting that feature.

there are midi markers sent for all commands, and then as the loop plays
there are markers sent for the loop point, cycle point, and subdivision
points. You can record these along with the audio for easy editing later. 
You can then also load loops back to the echoplex fairly easily by sending
the same midi commands out with the audio from the recording device.

Dennis Leas used this technique for his Kyma based Looper Construction Kit,
which transfers loops between an Echoplex and Kyma in real time.
