Yes but there is a difference in behavior depending on whether
the next loop is empty or not. I want to be able to frequently
go from loop 1 to loop 2 and have it behave as if loop 2 were
empty every time. In other words, create loop 1, copy that to
loop 2, add some stuff, and then throw all that away when I
go back to loop 1 without any interruption in the flow of the
music.
The only reason I mentioned resetting a loop that wasn't currently
playing is that the computer geek in my was trying to think of
an operation that was a bit more general purpose that would also
give me what I'm after.
This might be a rookie question, but, you mention "Next-Multiply"
and I saw Mark mention "Insert-Multiply", "Overdub-Multiply", etc,
etc. Whenever I hit "Next" into an empty loop, the EDP always goes
into Multiple mode. Is this behavior parameter controlled?
