The extended looper time is awesome! Many times I lacked just a few seconds for a desired length. With the new firmware, the problem is gone!
However, now I’m struggling with having to program too long patterns. See, sometimes the project starts with a loop and sometimes with a beat. So it would be beneficial to separate their lengths. So, for example, one could record an 8-bar loop, then work on a base 2-bar pattern, try different things out, then maybe extend it to a 4-bar one with some variations etc.
It seems to me that such use case is not covered. Or am I missing something?
There had been a couple of requests already to change the loop length making it bar-based instead of pattern-based(*). I would like to emphasize once again the importance of such approach as it may solve the abovementioned problem.
(*) I would keep the division of the total length as an option though, it’s a very cool feature!
