The Slave EDP picks up the looptime by measuring the gap between 2 cycle
starts.

When you start recording the EDP already knows how long the cycle is.

Only by default.
Use the Overdub button to Toggle sync on/off (whatever the Quantise param)

no, but EDP has that too :-)
Matthias worked out all this stuff to make it possible for loopers to play
synced together very easily.
In practice, it "just works".
