RE: sample based looping vs. delay looping



Hi Stuart,

I have had this problem with my Repeater, Electrix was aware of the
problem and was supposed to release a fix for it at a future date.  Well
we know how that story ended ...

Anyway, this was the final straw that prompted me to get an EDP, and BTW
the EDP does not have this problem at all ... Smooth as silk (of course
unless I personally do something wrong in the creation of the drone that
causes a bump).  I wish the EDP was stereo, with its own effects loop,
but I guess I will be able to work this out somehow in the routing
through my mix busses.

Regards,
Steve
