Os, you never cease to amaze me: this rocks just so hard!

In the past, I've posted about how much fun I've had with the previous 
versions
of Crossfade Loop Synth, especially assigning the sample start and end 
points
to the AXYZ dome on the Alesis Photon controller and manipulating the loop
points in realtime.

The only thing that ever nagged at me with the instrument was that it only
worked on pre-recorded sample files.  I'd be playing around with a sample 
and
would wish I could do the same while looping realtime input.  Any 
half-dozen
times I've almost written off a feature request for this (or, conversely, 
for
similar loop point manipulation capabilities in Augustus Loop), but then
sloughed it off thinking, "nah, I gotta be the only guy around interested 
in
this".

Now, here comes the Crossfade Loop Synth Effect, which sounds like exactly 
the
functionality I would've requested.

I'm off on travel (again!) but I'm going to add this one as a regular in my
little arsenal just as soon as I get back.

Bravo!  Like I said, Os, you rock!!!
